In England, the ear wax removal (EWR) industry is currently unregulated, meaning anyone can perform this clinical procedure, even though it carries risks such as perforated eardrums and infections. To ensure your safety and that of your loved ones, consider the following credentials when selecting a provider:
* A healthcare professional listed on their respective professional register (feel free to chat with us about our registered NMC profession)
* Works within a regulated Care Quality Commission (CQC) and ICO registered establishment (we provide a clinic-based service at a CQC and ICO Registered and Regulated establishment, Torbay & Teign Chiropractic Natural Healthcare Clinics in Torquay, ensuring flexible, safe, regulated and accessible options for everyone)
