Products that combine solid paraffin with dry mud that have medical (e.g., analgesic) properties obtained from natural sources. The product is usually heated until it melts and is applied in thick layers on areas of skin just when it becomes solid again, at a temperature in the range between 38 to 45 degrees Celsius (100 to 113 degrees Fahrenheit). The product is typically applied for a time period of less than one hour. Combined products of natural mud with paraffin are intended to help in relieving chronic pain and stiffness and also to alleviate muscle spasms.
