The most beneficial reason for using massage wax for all forms of massage is the added grip provided by the beeswax when used sparingly allowing you to slightly grip muscles and surrounding tissue during deep tissue and myofascial massage. What is also worth mentioning is the anti-inflammatory, anti-viral and anti-bacterial benefits of pure beeswax on most skin types, leaving the skin feeling nourished, re-hydrated and with very little residue after treatment. The skin also absorbs the majority of the massage balm by the end of a treatment when applied liberally unlike oil. A little of Annie's Bee Natural Massage Wax really does go a long way!

(A skin test is always recommended even with 100% natural products)
