Paraffin Wax Bath

Aside from feeling absolutely pampered, using paraffin wax provides benefits in a multitude of ways. It works by vasodilating the capillaries which then increases the blood flow to the extremities. We usually leave our patients with the wax on for 30 mins so we recommend bringing a good book along to relax!

We typically use it for:

  • Those who suffer from chilblains (do it once at the start of the winter season and be protected from the cold for months!)

  • Excessive callus (hard skin) build up - the wax helps soften the skin after your Podiatry treatment and slows down the reformation of the callus

  • Arthritis in the hands or feet (the heat helps increase joint mobility)

  • Increasing blood circulation

All our Podiatrists are qualified to provide paraffin wax bath treatments.
