Paraffin Wax Treatment

During paraffin wax therapy, the warm wax is applied to the desired area, such as your hands or feet. As the wax cools, it creates a warm, soothing sensation. The heat helps to increase blood flow to the area, which can relieve pain and relax muscles. Additionally, the wax acts as a barrier, trapping moisture in your skin and leaving it feeling soft and moisturised.

Paraffin wax therapy is commonly used for conditions such as arthritis, joint pain, muscle stiffness, and dry skin. It can also be a relaxing and enjoyable way to pamper yourself or relieve stress.

We use paraffin wax as a stand alone treatment or it with a relaxing massage or a facial treatment.

Ready to Make a Change?

At Wandsworth Physiotherapy & Osteopathy we're focused on getting you out of pain and back to what you love doing, from simply sitting comfortably to playing with your kids, getting back into the gym or being able to run 5k again, our expert Physiotherapists, Podiatrists & Osteopaths are here to help!

 

All appointments are secured with payment. All appointments cancelled within 24 hours of the start time or not attended will not be refunded.

What to expect…

 

What will during a treatment?

We will simply chat with you to find out what symptoms you have and what body part you want to have treated (hands or feet). The hand or feet will be submerged in warm wax, then the area will be wrapped for comfort and relaxation. Once wrapped we can perform some relaxing massage as part of the treatment.

When will I get the results?

It’s not unusual to feel some benefit straight away however the treatment effects may be short lasting and repeated treatments are recommended for symptoms relief and in combination with other treatment modalities. 

How much will it cost?

A paraffin wax treatment is £50 as a stand alone treatment and can also be added to a facial or other treatment for an additional fee upon discussion with your therapist.

 

Brilliant all round experience. After sustaining a marathon injury during training Wandsworth Physiotherapy managed to fit me in the next day and was back up and running within 2 weeks after three 30 minute sessions. Gave me exercises to go away and do in my own time too so felt like I was making the most of their and my time too.

These guys are fantastic! Really quick to reply and they found me an appointment on the same day. I've since had regular treatments with Alessio who is excellent, and my torn IT band, shoulder and other ailments are much improved. Brilliant for both sports injuries and wellness.

Gerry Sweetland

Booked an appointment for the same day on a Saturday. Adele has been very welcoming and helpful, providing useful advice as well as efficient treatment. Great local clinic, will definitely come back and recommend.

Steve was excellent. Long term/complex shoulder injury treated over a number of sessions - patient, curious and methodical. Great treatments and programme of exercises and I'm back to pain free swimming.

~ Nick Outlaw

I've been several times for several different problems and Steve has always been excellent. He listens really carefully and asks good questions to find out exactly what's wrong, and is very clear with follow-up exercises to continue the therapy at home. Highly recommend him!
