The Paraffin Bath Therapy Device is a form of hydrotherapy that utilizes the heat from molten wax to achieve physiological effects. The stimulation of heat sensation in the tissues leads to an increase in tissue temperature, resulting in:
- Increased body temperature
- Enhanced metabolism
- Arteriole vasodilation, which improves capillary blood circulation and increases capillary hydrostatic pressure
Indications for Paraffin Bath Therapy:
- Arthritis pain
- Fibromyalgia
- Fibrositis
- Inflammation of muscles and joints
- Muscle spasms
- Joint stiffness
- Tendonitis
- Tennis elbow
