Description

A paraffin wax bath is a form of deep heating therapy that involves completely covering the hands or feet with molten paraffin wax. The warm, melted wax helps relax muscles, reduce joint stiffness, and ease pain. Paraffin wax is a hydrocarbon made solely from carbon and hydrogen elements and is a byproduct of the petroleum industry. The actual temperature of paraffin wax is 42-52°C whereas its melting point is 51-54.4°C. The melted wax should not be poured directly on the body tissue as it may lead to thermal injuries.
