One of the services you’ll encounter at Pure Dental Spa is our paraffin wax hand treatment. Paraffin wax is a petroleum-based wax used to smooth and soften skin. We take your hands and dunk them in warm paraffin wax which hardens on your hands when they are removed. This opens up pores and removes toxins and dirt from your skin. After a few minutes, the wax is removed leaving your hands as soft as a baby’s. Below are some of the benefits of paraffin wax hand treatments.
Moisturizing
Paraffin wax hand treatments moisturize your skin, leaving it smooth and soft. The wax traps moisture in the skin so that the skin retains the moisture. After the wax is peeled off, hands that were once dry, rough, or cracked, are left silky smooth. The wax also helps remove dead skin cells when it is peeled away, leaving your hands looking and feeling rejuvenated.
Healing
Paraffin wax is heated up so that it is melted when you submerge your hands in it. This heat helps ease pain from swelling and can help remedy conditions like arthritis, osteoarthritis, and fibromyalgia. It helps soothe muscles, tendons, and ligaments and improve joint stiffness.
Relaxing
One of the best benefits of a paraffin wax hand treatment is how relaxing they are. Submerging your hands in the warm wax is as therapeutic as it is for cosmetic benefit. This is why many spas offer paraffin wax hand treatments to their customers.
If you go to a spa or a salon, paraffin wax hand treatments can cost up to $20. At Pure Dental Spa, we offer amenities such as paraffin wax at no additional cost. You will be so immersed in luxuries that you’ll likely forget that you are even at the dentist. Other comforts we offer include aromatherapy neck pillows and candles, blankets, and personal music or television headphones. Why go to a dentist when you can go to the spa?
