Yesterday someone slipped a brochure for various spa treatments under my door. So naturally I took a peek before throwing it in the bin. I looked at the colourful pictures of the various massages being offered at ridiculously high prices.
Then I almost choked in my own laughter when I saw a picture of a person lying down with his ears being dugged by another. "Cranial Detoxification" it said beneath the picture. Ewww! Who on earth would want to pay to have their ears dugged? Siao!
Even the ENTs do not recommend that you dig your ears with Q-tips as it can push dirt further into your ear canal or even cause injury. In that picture, the person was holding a rather long looking thingy to dig out the ears of the person having the so called "Cranial Detoxification". Hmm.. what will people think of next?

Me and hubby went once in Carrefoure, Sri Petaling, they were having promotion. It's very Therapeutic although the sight of all diaplayed ear wax was gross.
Now, we bought our supply from the link above and we will help each other to Cranial Detox. Hehe...! It's belief to cure sinus. It's better than sticking cotton bud in ears.
