Wax therapy, also known as paraffin wax therapy, is an effective physiotherapy treatment for knee pain and stiffness. It uses warm, melted wax to deliver heat to the affected joint, helping to relieve pain and improve flexibility.

How Does Wax Therapy Work?

  1. Melting the Wax: Paraffin wax is heated to a safe temperature (around 45-50°C).
  2. Application: The knee is either dipped into the wax or covered with layers of warm wax.
  3. Heat Retention: The wax solidifies around the knee, retaining heat and penetrating deep into tissues.
  4. Removal: After 15-20 minutes, the wax is peeled off, leaving the joint relaxed.

Conditions Treated with Wax Therapy

  • Osteoarthritis: Helps reduce joint stiffness and pain.
  • Rheumatoid Arthritis: Eases inflammation and discomfort.
  • Knee Joint Stiffness: Improves range of motion.
  • Post-Surgery Rehabilitation: Aids recovery by loosening muscles and joints.

Benefits of Wax Therapy for Knee Pain

  1. Pain Relief: The heat from the wax soothes joint and muscle pain.
  2. Improved Flexibility: Helps loosen stiff joints and muscles.
  3. Enhanced Blood Circulation: Promotes healing by increasing blood flow.
  4. Relaxation: Reduces stress and tension in the affected area.

Wax Therapy Process

  1. Initial Consultation: The physiotherapist evaluates your condition.
  2. Treatment Session: The knee is covered with warm wax for about 15-20 minutes.
  3. Follow-Up Exercises: Gentle exercises are recommended post-therapy to maintain flexibility.
