Paraffin therapy is used in spas and therapy centers. Heat therapy has long been known for the healing benefits it offers. Paraffin wax has a high heat retaining capacity. The heat is then transferred to the affected area as the paraffin wax goes through a phase change. Paraffin when heated becomes a liquid. When a hand, foot, elbow or other body parts are dipped in the paraffin bath the paraffin surrounding it quickly goes through a phase change. The heat given out by the paraffin is called the “heat of fusion”. This heat opens skin pores and improves blood circulation in the affected limb. After the therapy skin becomes more radiant and soft. At HPFY you will find all supplies required for an effective paraffin therapy session. Try Now!
