You only pay for what you need

Michele shows you inside your ears on a camera screen first, and you pay only for the ears that need treatment.

Microsuction and irrigation

Not every clinic offers both. Michele uses whichever suits your wax, or both, for the same price.

Calverton to Woodthorpe

Happy Ears is around five miles from Calverton, an easy drive towards Arnold and down Mansfield Road. Parking on the street outside the clinic is free.

The calverton bus runs straight from the village to Woodthorpe, so you can leave the car at home. It is a useful option if your hearing is muffled and you would rather not drive.

What if all the wax will not come out?

Warm water irrigation at Happy Ears.

Most wax comes out in one appointment, especially when it has been softened with olive oil for a few days. Very old, hard wax can occasionally be too stubborn to clear safely in one go.

If that happens, Michele stops rather than forcing it, and you come back for a second visit. If you prepared your ears properly with olive oil, the return visit is free.

  • Olive oil spray twice a day for three to five days before you come, and at least two.
  • Michele uses microsuction, irrigation or both, whichever suits your wax on the day.
  • She explains what to do before you come back, if a second visit is needed.
