What is a Paraffin Therapy?

A paraffin therapy involves the use of paraffin wax, which is a naturally derived wax. This wax is melted in a paraffin bath that warms it up to a comfortable lukewarm temperature. 3-4 layers of this melted paraffin is applied on your hands and feet, forming a nice thick layer on your skin. This layer of wax is covered with cling film and again a layer of paraffin is applied on it and covered with a foil wrap until the wax cools off and hardens. The hardened wax is pulled off from your skin, revealing moisturized and rejuvenated skin.

Benefits of Paraffin Therapy in Winter

Paraffin wax being a natural emollient proves to be a boon for dry, flaky and cracked skin on hands and feet, especially during winter. It is an excellent:

  • Exfoliator: The liquid paraffin wax traps all the dead skin cells on your skin as it hardens, making it a great exfoliator.
  • Moisturizer: A good quality paraffin wax is formulated using natural oils that deeply moisturizes dry skin on hands and feet.
  • Healer: The warm nature of the therapy relieves stiffness from muscles and joints and helps improve blood circulation too.

Paraffin having the power of high penetration, penetrates deep into the dermis layer and works on the collagen improving elasticity of the skin and thereby giving your skin a tightening effect.
