A method for providing a paraffin treatment to a patient, including the steps of: (a) melting a paraffin composition to a melted, flowable state; (b) immersing at least a portion of an absorptive strip into the melted paraffin composition so that the strip absorbs some of the melted paraffin composition; (c) applying the strip containing the melted paraffin composition to a portion of skin on the patient; (d) allowing the strip containing the melted paraffin composition to remain in contact with the portion of skin whereby the melted paraffin transfers heat to the patient's skin; and (e) removing the strip from the portion of the patient's skin wherein the paraffin composition is contained by the strip making removal of strip and paraffin composition substantially simultaneous. The present invention is also directed to a therapeutic strip, containing melted paraffin, to be applied to a portion of a patient's skin to provide a therapeutic treatment of heat to the patient.
