Paraffin can also be beneficial for rehabilitation of sports injuries and other physical trauma. At the Nail Spa at FAC you can have the treatment performed as an additional service to your manicure and/or pedicure. Paraffin treatment is a form of deep heat therapy. Liquified paraffin wax is very efficient at absorbing and retaining heat. When you dip your hand or foot, for example, into the paraffin bath, heat transfers from the wax into the affected area as the wax solidifies. The heat increases circulation and relieves pain and stiffness.
Moist heat: Enjoy a bath, shower, hot tub or whirlpool using warm, not hot, water (92-100Â°). Heat wraps: Drape a heat wrap, available at drugstores, around your neck like a scarf (great for work or travel). Heating pads: To avoid burns, remove heating pads if the area becomes uncomfortably warm. When to use caution Paraffin wax treatments supply moist heat but overheating can cause burns.
