Paraffin Wax Treatments

Paraffin wax treatments are my favorite treatments to give my clients. I have some with painful arthritis and the heat from the wax helps relieve the pain temporarily.

The clients must not be swollen in order to have hot wax treatments. The hands are most often dipped in the paraffin several times. Then mits are put on the hands for about 20 minutes. After that, the wax is peeled off, leaving the hands soft and smooth and pain-free for a little while.

This treatment is also great for clients who want soft hands. The old dead skin is peeled off, leaving soft, smooth hands. The clients just love it.
