The outside dimensions are 14.25" x 8.5" 7.75" (36.2 x 21.6 x 19.7 cm). How does Paraffin Therapy Work. Paraffin wax has a very high heat capacity, meaning it is able to absorb and retain a great amount of heat. A paraffin wax spa takes advantage of paraffin's heat-retaining capacity in a simple process called heat transfer. In technical terms, heat is transferred to the core of the affected area as paraffin goes through a phase change. As it melts, the paraffin becomes a liquid and is able to retain more heat. Then, when a hand, foot, or other area is dipped into the heated bath, the phase of the paraffin that surrounds the dipped area quickly changes into a solid. The heat that is given off is called the heat of fusion. More simply, the heat that goes into melting the paraffin comes out when it solidifies into a comforting paraffin coating, thus transferring the heat into the affected limb. Another way to look at it is the paraffin is the medium that transfers heat from the TherabathPRO to the painful area. At the same time, the heat from the paraffin opens pores and increases circulation in the skin. This is why paraffin is so beneficial to skin, leaving Wskin softened and more flexible. From a medical treatment view, paraffin hot wax therapy provides warm therapeutic paraffin for symptomatic relief of pain and stiffness. Heat from paraffin helps relieve pain and stiffness in affected joints and stimulates blood circulation to the affected area. The penetrating warmth relaxes muscles making paraffin treatments useful before exercise, massage or other physical therapy. Paraffin heat therapy is widely used and recommended by arthritis specialists and physical therapists.

As with any medical treatment, if you have specific questions, consult a physician or physical therapist before using this device. Are paraffin treatments sanitary. Yes. Paraffin baths has been tested by labs, who have certified that paraffin is a hostile environment for bacteria and fungi. In addition, when you dip, the paraffin forms an instant barrier between the skin and paraffin in the bath. Can I add essential oils to paraffin. Yes. Essential oils are a great way to add aromatherapy benefits to your paraffin treatments. Add only a few drops of 100 percent pure, natural oils, such as those from Lotus Touch. Do not add water-based products. And make sure to start with a premium paraffin that is specially blended for use on skin and nails, and contains no impurities.
