Candle massage is a relaxing manual body treatment performed with the use of special massage candles that melt into a warm cosmetic oil. The treatment affects the skin, muscles, and the nervous system, supporting muscle relaxation, improving microcirculation, and enhancing overall physical comfort.
This course presents candle massage as a manual treatment that requires understanding of product properties, skin responses to heat, and safe massage techniques when working with body tissues. The program explains the physiological effects of warm oil massage and provides step-by-step guidance for performing the treatment in professional practice.
