What is Wax Therapy?
Wax Therapy involves immersing the affected body parts, such as hands, feet, or elbows, in warm, melted paraffin wax. The wax is heated to a temperature that is soothing but not uncomfortable, and then it is applied to the targeted area. As the wax cools and hardens, it forms a warm, insulating layer that helps in relieving pain and improving circulation.
Benefits of Wax Therapy
Pain Relief: The warmth from the wax helps in reducing muscle and joint pain, making it an excellent choice for those with arthritis or other chronic conditions.
Improved Joint Mobility: The heat from the wax helps in loosening stiff joints, enhancing flexibility and range of motion.
Increased Circulation: The treatment promotes better blood flow to the affected areas, aiding in the healing process and reducing inflammation.
Skin Softening: Wax Therapy can also help in softening and hydrating the skin, making it beneficial for conditions like dry skin and calluses.
Relaxation: The soothing warmth of the wax offers a relaxing and comforting experience, helping to reduce stress and promote overall relaxation.
