i am a beauty therapist and one of my new
clients has MS, when i waxed her legs, her
legs appeared redder and reacted more to
the wax (i.e harder to remove) usually
this is related to the temperature of the
body area. (area to cold) So was
wondering does MS affect blood flow. Or
are these reactions related to MS. Is
waxing advisable.
Any info on waxing and MS would be greatly
appreciated.
Blood flow in the skin is controlled by
the autonomous nerve system (sympathicus
and parasympathicus). Multiple sclerosis
can affect any brain part including the
nerve pathways that are involved in the
function of the autonomous nerve system.
I am not sure if MS caused lower skin
temperature and different reaction to wax
but I also don't see any reason (including
this one) why should be waxing
contraindicated in case of MS.
