How to set up the paraffin bath
1. Remove all contents from packaging and check to make sure
you have all of the following components of the ParaSpa Mini
paraffin bath:
• Paraffin bath tub
• Plastic lid
• Plastic grate
• Three 500g bags of Paraffin Wax
• 30 plastic liners
2. Place unit on a level and sturdy table or surface and remove
the lid.
3. Make sure Paraffin Wax System tub is empty before putting
wax into tub.
4. Open the bags of Paraffin Wax and place wax in the tub.
Open only as many bags as you plan to use. The unit is
designed to hold a maximum of 1.6 kg of paraffin wax and a
minimum of 1 kg. See Fig.1 Always keep the level of paraffin
wax filled to the “MIN” level marked on the inside of the tub.
5. Plug the unit into a 230V AC power supply. The green LED
light indicates when the unit is plugged in. The red light will
turn on and off as the heating element works.
NOTE: Unit is automatically turned “on” when it is plugged in.
If not used in 48 to 72 hours, turn dial down to “SOLID”.
If not used for weeks at a time unplug unit and store in a
cool, dry place.
6. Turn the dial to “MELT” to melt the paraffin wax. See Fig.2
The paraffin wax should melt in less than 12 hours, usually in
under 4-5 hours. The red LED light indicates that the heater
element is operating. Place the lid onto the top of the unit.
7. Turn the dial to “WARM” after paraffin wax is completely
melted. Remove the lid and place the grate into the wax and
allow it to sink to the bottom of the tub. See Fig.3 Place the
lid back onto the top of the unit. Wait about 1 hour for the
paraffin wax to cool down to an ideal temperature before
using. The Paraffin Wax System unit is designed to be used
at room temperature. If the wax starts to solidify or flakes
form on the top surface, turn dial clockwise(right) to increase
the temperature.
NOTE: The room temperature can have an effect on the unit’s
performance. Therefore we always recommend testing the
paraffin temperature on the inside of the wrist area before
dipping your entire hand or elbow.
NOTE: NEVER dip your hand, foot or elbow into the paraffin
bath while the unit is in “MELT” mode!
NOTE: Place the grate into the unit only when the paraffin wax
is melted.

How to use the paraffin treatment:
1. Before immersing your hand or elbow test the paraffin wax on the inside of your wrist to make
sure the temperature of the wax is comfortable. Remove all jewellery before dipping (i.e. rings,
bracelets, watch).
NOTE: It is suggested you wash the area to be treated and apply lanolin-based hand lotion
over the area before dipping it into the paraffin wax. This will allow the wax to be removed
easier and will help moisturize the skin.
2. Dip your hand or elbow into the melted paraffin wax and remove immediately. Wait a few
seconds until the wax solidifies. Try to avoid moving your hand or elbow while wax is applied.
NOTE: Dipping process is quick. Do not leave hand or elbow in the tub. Do not soak.
Dip quickly in and out.
3. Repeat this step several times until several layers have formed, 6-10 coatings are suggested.
If paraffin wax temperature is too hot or too cold, adjust the temperature accordingly. Turn the
dial clockwise (right) to increase the paraffin wax temperature or anti-clockwise (left) to reduce
the paraffin wax temperature.
4. For longer heat treatment, place a plastic liner (provided) over the treated area and twist bag
at opening. Keep paraffin wax and liner on treated area for 10-20 minutes for ultimate therapy.
See Fig.4
NOTE: When using the paraffin bath with plastic liners on your feet, do not walk around!
This may cause you to slip and fall.
5. Peel off the wax from the treated area. If using a plastic liner, peel the plastic lining from the
area being treated. Paraffin wax will peel off with liner. See Fig.5
6. Discard used wax.
NOTE: If you are the only person using the ParaSpa Mini, the wax can be re-used, simply put
it back into the tub to re-melt.
MAINTENANCE:
Periodically, the used portion of paraffin wax should be replaced and the unit should be cleaned.
1. Unplug unit and remove grate. Allow paraffin wax to solidify overnight.
2. Push on one end of paraffin wax block. This will tip it up. Lift the block out of the unit and
dispose of it. DO NOT USE SHARP OBJECTS TO REMOVE THE PARAFFIN WAX BLOCK,
THIS MAY SCRATCH OR DAMAGE THE TUB. If the paraffin wax does not remove easily, plug
unit in and allow to heat for 10–15 minutes then remove the paraffin wax block and unplug the
unit.
3. Wipe the inside of the unit with a disposable towel to remove residual dirt and paraffin.
4. With a damp, soapy cloth, wipe clean. DO NOT POUR WATER INTO THE UNIT, OR IMMERSE
THE UNIT IN WATER.
5. Store in a cool, dry place. When you are ready to re-use the Paraffin Wax System paraffin bath
for the next heat treatment, repeat steps 2-7, “How to set up the paraffin bath unit”. Then,
follow steps 1-6, “How to use the paraffin treatment”.
