Why choose ear irrigation?

Ear irrigation is a highly effective method for removing stubborn wax build-up quickly and efficiently, helping to relieve pressure and restore hearing. The procedure is fast and simple, with appointments usually taking just 10 to 30 minutes.  It is also non-invasive, making it ideal for those who prefer to avoid more intrusive procedures. While some individuals may experience mild sensations during the process, it is typically well-tolerated with minimal discomfort.

Things to consider before booking

To make sure ear irrigation is right for you, please take the following into account. First, it’s helpful to have your ears examined by an audiologist or healthcare professional beforehand. This can help rule out issues such as infections or a perforated eardrum. While the procedure is usually pain-free, some people may experience mild pressure or discomfort during treatment, although this is typically brief. 


Although ear irrigation is generally very safe, all procedures carry some risks, so if you have any concerns, please let us know — we’re here to help. Lastly, ear irrigation isn’t suitable for everyone. If you’ve had ear surgery, a recent ear infection, or any past issues with your ears, please inform us so we can help you find the most appropriate solution.
