Ear Wax Removal

During ear wax removal you will sit in a chair and the ear is rinsed with warm water from an electronic irrigator.

The wax and water is collected in a cup-shaped receiver which you hold under the ear. The electronic irrigators used have controlled pressures and are gentle and safe.

Ear syringing does make some noise but this is not excessive or uncomfortable. Most people who have irrigation find it to be a fairly pleasant procedure.
