Description
Therabath Professional TB6 Thermo Therapy Paraffin Bath Unit provides Paraffin treatments, a type of thermotherapy, that effectively increases blood flow to aid in rehabilitation or to warm a specific area of the body prior to other therapies or exercise. Arthritis pain, inflammation, and stiffness can all be relieved with paraffin moist heat therapy. Warm paraffin is also commonly used to soften dry, cracked skin by attracting moisture from the inside of the body to the surface. Hands, feet, faces, and elbows are left feeling soft and looking more youthful. Two internal thermostats ensure that the user never comes into contact with overheated wax.
