Paraffin treatments- the little known benefits

The best day spa paraffin treatments in Southwest Missouri!

Paraffin treatments do not get nearly as much press as other day spa treatments. Everyone knows the medical and relaxation benefits that are provided by massage. They also know how great facials are at replenishing tired and dehydrated skin. Who doesn’t want to make their face look younger? The International Day Spa Associating has an annual survey that rates all day spa services in order of preference. Massage and facial treatment are consistently rated the top two favorites year after year.

However did you know that the use of paraffin treatments as a therapeutic and relaxation treatment dates back to Roman Empire? During this time the paraffin treatment was used on the body as a prelude to massage treatments. In later years countries such as the French and English used paraffin treatments to help speed healing of injuries, especially for joint problems.

The benefits of paraffin treatments include hydrating dry hands and feet, allowing the deep-penetrating heat to soothe achy muscles and joints, and even aid conditions such as arthritis, fibromyalgia, tendonitis, and muscle spasms.

The interesting thing about paraffin treatments in the day spa is this treatment is easy to incorporate into the two favorites (massage and facial). For example while waiting for a mask to dry in a facial, a paraffin treatment can be given. A paraffin treatment can also be incorporated into a relaxation massage as part of the session. So you don’t have to choose between your favorites and paraffin treatments, you can have the best of both!

Body Balance Spa does not endorse using communal vats for paraffin treatments. Do you really want to dip your hands or feet in the same vat that others have been using all day? That’s the reason we only use single use and sanitary paraffin treatments at our establishment.
