TREATMENT INSTRUCTIONS
1. Wash hands or feet thoroughly. Check to make sure that you have no cuts or visible patches of
sensitive skin.
2. Remove any jewelry and roll up long sleeves.
3. If you are sensitive to temperature, test the wax before beginning. Simply dab a bit onto the
inside of your wrist. It should be very warm to the touch, but not uncomfortable.
DO NOT DIP YOUR HAND IN WAX IF IT IS TOO HOT.
4. With fingers slightly apart, immerse hand slowly into wax in paraffin spa unit
(Fig.1)
.
5. Immediately pull your hand out, being sure to maintain the open-finger position. Wait 3 to 5
seconds until the paraffin loses that “wet” look and then dip again. Try to immerse your hand to
the same depth each time, so the lip of the wax “glove” thickens uniformly.
6. Repeat this process until 5 layers have been formed. Additional layers can be added to retain heat
longer.
7. Insert your hand in one of the plastic liners provided.
8. Sit down and relax for 10-15 minutes, while the warm paraffin wax continues to release heat to
soothe and soften the hand.
9. Remove plastic liner once you no longer feel any heat. Wiggle your fingers slightly to loosen the
wax. Then peel off the paraffin starting from the wrist and pulling it downward like a glove, into
the plastic liner
(Fig.2)
.
10. Discard the plastic liner and wax. If only one person intends to use this unit, you may wish to
recycle the wax by returning it to the unit. See replacement section on how to order replacement
wax blocks and liners.
11. Return lid to unit, switch the unit to “0” and unplug. Allow unit and wax to cool before stowing
away.
