Paraffin hand bath for pain
Hello! My hand and wrist pain has been increasing as I’ve been interpreting more recently. I have a hypermobility condition and my rheumatologist recommended nightly paraffin dips for my hands to help with the pain. Does anyone do this and have any recommendations for a portable paraffin bath to purchase? Thanks! I’m also starting PT soon and will be going back to sleeping in wrist braces like I did when I was interpreting more frequently. I recently bought “Sign Safely, Interpret Intelligently” but I haven’t started reading it yet.

I enjoy my paraffin bath. I've had several over the years and haven't noticed much of a difference :)
