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.
From the village to Woodthorpe
Happy Ears is about four miles from Lambley, via Spring Lane and the A6211 or along Catfoot Lane. Both take around 11 minutes, and parking on the street outside the clinic is free.
Patients come from the village because Michele takes the time to look properly and explain what she sees, then uses the method that is right for their ears rather than the only one she has.
Getting to the clinic from Lambley
Drive via Spring Lane and the A6211, or along Catfoot Lane, both about 11 minutes. There is a bus every half hour, taking about 35 minutes with a change: the 61 Sky Blue Line, then the 25 Lilac Line.
Happy Ears is at 4 Marlborough Road, Woodthorpe, Nottingham NG5 4FG. Monday to Friday 8am to 6pm, Saturday 8am to 3pm, by appointment only.
Three ways to remove wax
The right method depends on where the wax sits, how hard it is and the shape of your ear canal. Michele looks first, then explains which she recommends and why.
Manual removal
When the wax is close enough and in the right position, Michele lifts it out with fine instruments. Where it is possible, this is the safest option.
Microsuction
A fine suction tube removes the wax while she watches closely. It is the next safest, and often the choice for wax deeper in the canal. Ear microsuction
Warm water irrigation
A gentle, controlled flow of warm water flushes softened wax out. It works well when the wax has had a few days of olive oil. Ear irrigation
Narrow or sensitive ear canals are not a problem. Michele will tell you which method she is using and check you are comfortable before she starts. Whichever she uses, or if she combines them, you pay per ear, not per method.
