Paraffin Treatment, works wonders on cracked hands

The paraffin treatment begins by submerging hands into a warm wax distributed over the skin's surface. Hands are then covered until the form mimics a silky glove of wax. Next, hands are placed in toweling mitts. During this rest interval, the wax relaxes muscles and is allowed to deeply penetrate pores promoting hydration. When all coverings are carefully removed, hands are left supple and smooth.

Keep in mind that softness is not the only benefit of such treatment. Paraffin Wax also increases blood circulation and allows for the restoration of improved skin color. This treatment also eases stiffness and discomfort of joints associated with injury, arthritis, overworked muscles, and other ailments.

Innovations in Paraffin Wax treatments involve elements of holistic healing and aromatherapy as well. Paraffin wax bars are now available in scents of lavender, citrus, rosemary, wintergreen, and others that promote healing from the inside out.

What'll it cost you? Spa Girl found the Paraffin Hand Wax Treatment in Chicago and greater Illinois ranging from $5 to $15.

I use a scrub of olive oil and brown sugar (and if you have it, a drop of lavender oil) when my hands get really dry. Use the scrub before bed and then apply a hand cream or just vaseline. I use Burt's Bees hand salve or Burt's Bees Almond Milk Beeswax Hand Creme. And put on a pair of cotton gloves to sleep in. This has helped my hands a lot.

Neturogena has a product called Norwegian Formula Hand Cream for that very problem.

put lotion on them and then put plastic bags over them before you go to bed, in the morning you should see a difference. I had to do it and it really helped. Just stay away from the lotions that have a lot of fragrances and stuff

Use lotion. Cracked hands are just caused by lack of moisture.
