Paraffin Therapy

Paraffin Wax and Oils

Paraffin wax is soft solid obtained from the bosom of the earth. It is extracted from petroleum that is mined from the surface of the earth. It is a solid that melt and freezes at low temperatures as compared to other solids and is hence very useful. It is used to make moulds and also used for metal casting. It has been used by the earliest humans around 5000 years ago.

In the medical world, it is the key ingredient used in paraffin therapy. Its property of withholding heat is one of the main reasons for which it’s used in therapeutic processes. It holds heat and then hardens easily too. It freezes over the body part on which it is applied to and thus induces the heat to the skin.
