Ear cleaning is a gentle manual service that removes built-up wax and relieves blocked or itchy ears. It is offered by trained practitioners using clean instruments, and is often paired with a short head or shoulder massage.

It should not be. A trained practitioner works gently with clean instruments. If you feel discomfort, tell them and they will stop.
Only when you need it — if your ears feel blocked, itchy or full, or your hearing feels muffled. Most people do not need it on a fixed schedule.
Do not insert cotton buds or other objects into the ear canal — that can push wax deeper. See a professional if wax is causing symptoms.
