Treatments using paraffin wax on the hands are long established. In fact, they have been around since 1962. Immersion of the hands in warm paraffin wax is an effective way of helping to treat arthritis, bursitis, tendonitis, sprains and stiffness in the joints.
This indulgent treatment also helps to improve circulation and intensively moisturises and nourishes the nails, cuticles and skin, leaving your hands feeling soothed and hydrated.
During the treatment each hand is immersed several times in warm liquid wax after which the hands are wrapped and placed on a warm wheat bag for 10-15 mins. During this time you will be treated to a relaxing neck and shoulder massage. The hands are then unwrapped revealing beautifully moisturised skin and a greater feeling of mobility and flexibility.
Finally the hands are gently massaged
with a moisturising cream blended with essential oils which I will choose to suit your individual needs.
Paraffin wax therapy can be used to reduce inflammation in joints and connective tissue, helps soothe arthritic pain, improves circulation to the hands, nourishes and moisturizes skin. This treatment offers therapeutic benefits whilst also being very pampering, allowing you time to relax and unwind.
