    Low-temperature candles are mainly used for sex toys and physical therapy aids. Their melting points are usually controlled at 50-60 degrees Celsius to avoid high temperature burns to the skin.

    Low-temperature candles are often used in the erotic field to add an intimate atmosphere, and are specially formulated to produce only a warm sensation rather than a burning sensation when dripping. Botanical essential oils such as lavender or chamomile added to candles can help relax the mind and body, and some products incorporate food-grade coloring to add visual interest. It is necessary to avoid mucous membranes and wounds when using. It is recommended to test the tolerance of the skin on the inside of the wrist to the wax oil in advance and maintain a safe dripping height of 15-20 cm.

    In physical therapy scenarios, low-temperature candles containing beeswax can be used in conjunction with massage. Warm wax oil wrapping the joints can promote local blood circulation. Medical-grade paraffin candles are used during rehabilitation treatment, and their constant temperature properties are helpful in relieving muscle stiffness. However, those with sensitive skin should use it with caution, and patients with diabetes and peripheral neuropathy should consult a physician. After use, you need to use a special scraper to remove residual wax. Do not wash it directly to avoid the wax oil solidifying and clogging the pores.

    When purchasing, you need to confirm whether the product has safety certification and avoid using inferior candles containing lead core or industrial paraffin. Store away from children and pets in a cool and dry environment. It is recommended to be accompanied by a partner or caregiver when using it for the first time. If skin redness or swelling occurs, you should stop using it immediately and apply it with a cold towel. For daily maintenance, you can use 75% alcohol cotton pads to clean the candle holder. The remaining wax stains can be melted with a hair dryer at low temperature and wiped away.
