-
Remove any jewelry and roll up long sleeves or pant legs.
-
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/FOOT IN WAX IF IT IS TOO HOT.
-
With fingers/toes slightly apart, immerse hand/ foot slowly into wax in paraffin spa unit (Fig. 1).
-
Immediately pull your hand/foot out, being sure to maintain the open-finger/toe position. Wait 3 to 5 seconds until the paraffin loses that “wet” look and then dip again. Try to immerse your hand/ Fig. 1 foot to the same depth each time, so the lip of the wax “glove” thickens uniformly.
-
R epeat this process until 5 layers have been formed. Additional layers can be added to retain heat longer.
-
Wrap hand/foot in plastic wrap (not included).
-
Sit down and relax for 10–15 minutes while the warm paraffin wax continues to release heat to soothe and soften the skin.
-
Remove plastic wrap once you no longer feel any heat. Wiggle your fingers/toes slightly to loosen the wax. Then peel off the paraffin starting from the wrist/ankle and pulling it downward, like a glove (Fig. 2).
-
Discard the plastic and wax. If only one person intends to use this unit,you may wish to recycle the wax by returning it to the unit.
-
Return lid to unit, switch the unit to OFF and unplug. Allow unit and wax to cool before storing.
