Paraffin Treatment

Why Hand Massage And Paraffin Treatment Are Vital Parts Of Your Health Routine

There are many reasons why your hands might be causing you pain. In colder months, the skin on the hands can become dry and even cracked. This is a common occurrence for nurses, doctors, teachers, and anyone else who needs to wash their hands regularly as a part of their job. The joints and muscles within the hands can also become inflamed and sore, due to arthritis, hormonal issues, and/ or injury. The good news: hand massage and paraffin treatment are a great way to relieve the stress and pain that you feel in your hands and/ or feet.

A hand massage not only feels great - it promotes blood flow to your hands, and can help to relieve any pain you've been having. When you pair a hand massage with a paraffin treatment, you're getting the best of both worlds. For a paraffin treatment, your esthetician will have you dip your hands in warm, liquid paraffin wax several times to form a thick layer. Then, your waxy hands will be covered in plastic, trapping the heat from the wax. As the warm wax softens the skin, the pores open, allowing the wax to remove any impurities as it's pulled away from your skin at the end of your treatment.

The heat from the wax can go a long way in providing relief from painful joint issues, and the moisture provided by the wax can heal chapped cracked hands. Whether you're currently having an issue with your hands or are looking to prevent issues in the future, hand massage and paraffin treatment is a winning combination for keeping your hands healthy.

It offers benefits for conditions like fibromyalgia and rheumatoid arthritis. It is completely safe and beneficial for the skin of the face and body, although it cannot be applied to open cuts or sores.

Parafin can be applied to hands, elbows, face, and feet.
