Each session begins with the application of warm paraffin wax to the chosen area—either the hands or the feet. 6–8 layers of wax will be applied to the selected area, which will then be covered to retain heat for approximately 15 minutes. While the paraffin does its work, the corresponding limbs will be treated to enhance therapeutic benefits. After 15 minutes, the wax will be carefully removed and the area will receive further targeted treatment.
Please bring shorts and/or a tank top to allow easy access to the treatment area.
**Please note**: This is not a full-body massage therapy treatment. The purpose of this session is to aid in the relief of specific conditions listed below.

En quoi ça consiste
Most of the hour is spent on the table while the therapist works through the areas you’ve agreed to focus on — pressure, pace and techniques shifting as they go — with a brief check-in before and after so you leave knowing what was worked on.
