This system is guaranteed sanitary as it provides all the benefits without the mess. Encased in hand mitts or foot booties, a liquified paraffin wax provides a soft shell of warmth. As the wax solidifies, heat transfers to the affected area. Known to increase circulation, relieve pain and stiffness, it increases blood supply and aids in softening and moisturizing of the skin. After a period of time, the soft shell of wax is peeled away from the treatment area resulting in supple, well-hydrated skin and an ultimate sense of relaxation.
