Instructions for use:
This unit is a thermostatically controlled unit. The unit can hold a
maximum of 6 lbs. of paraffin wax for operation. The melting time
is less than 12 hours and it is designed for continuous run at 24 hours
per day.
Important Note:
This unit may feel very warm to sensitive skin. However, in order to fully
experience the therapeutic benefits of paraffin heat therapy, the wax
must be heated to a temperature between 123-131 degrees
Fahrenheit. This it the temperature utilized by the leading hospital
brand paraffin bathes.
For proper application, quickly dip the body area (i.e. hand, elbow or
foot) into the melted paraffin wax and remove immediately. This
should be repeated 6-10 times. Never soak in the wax for more than
1-2 seconds.
If you are very sensitive to heat or feel that this appliance may not be
for you, please return this product to the place of purchase, prior to use.
