Paraffin wax baths can be used 2-3 times a week for therapeutic benefits, particularly for conditions like Arthritis or muscle stiffness.

Yes, paraffin is soluble in alcohol. I have personally dissolved paraffin in alcohol. But I can tell you that it dissolves very slowly unless the alcohol is heated. If you use the right proportions of paraffin and alcohol, what you get is a paraffin paste. You can use this to wax furniture, etc.

Paraffin wax helps to retain heat and evenly distribute it across the skin, which can improve the therapeutic benefits of a wax bath. It also creates a barrier on the skin that helps to lock in moisture, making it beneficial for hydrating and softening the skin. Additionally, paraffin wax can help to increase circulation, reduce muscle stiffness, and alleviate joint pain.
