Paraffin Wax Bath treatment near me
Paraffin Wax Bath treatment, Paraffin wax bath therapy is an application of applying molten paraffin wax over the body parts. A paraffin bath contains a mixture of wax and mineral oil in a ratio of seven parts wax to one part oil (7:1). Melted paraffin is kept at a constant temperature of 47.8°C to 52.2°C for upper extremity treatments. Temperatures for treatments given to the lower extremities are decreased from 45.0°C to 49.4°C because the circulation is less efficient.
Paraffin is a superficial heating agent used for delivering heat to small, irregularly shaped areas such as the hand, fingers, wrist, and foot.
The vertebrae are made up of 2 segments: the body and the vertebral arch. The arch is formed by a pair of lamina and pedicle, the area between the lamina and pedicle is called pars interarticularis and it is one of the weakest parts of the vertebral arch.
