What Is A Spa Pedicure?

Pedicures are aesthetic treatments designed to care for and beautify feet and toenails. Aside from aesthetic benefits, pedicures may also offer improved foot health benefits as well as stress relief.

Spa pedicures provide more than regular pedicures by including an extra luxurious foot massage to promote circulation and relieve tension in your feet. Find out more about this luxurious treatment below.

What is a Spa Pedicure?

Spa pedicures offer an upgraded version of regular nail services, often offering more luxurious experiences and additional services. Spa pedicures tend to last longer than their counterparts and might include amenities such as foot soaks, extended massage, exfoliation or even paraffin wax dips for optimal hydration.

Though many view a pedicure as simply cosmetic service to enhance their nails‘ aesthetic value, regular pedicures can actually provide solutions for many medical conditions that affect feet such as dry feet and nails, calluses, ingrown toenails, cracked heels and much more. Furthermore, regular pedicures help boost circulation and relax feet to give a more rejuvenated experience – giving your feet more freedom of movement as a result!

While you can find nail bars that provide pedicures, a salon-style spa pedicure adds another level of relaxation with music and therapeutic treatments that promote total bliss. Although different salons may provide different services such as foot soak and massage treatments, nail trim/file, cuticle care services, exfoliation treatments, polish applications or polish removal.

Exfoliation

Assuring yourself a soothing nail salon visit is an ideal way to pamper yourself. A basic service includes soaking your feet in water for about 30 minutes before using a pumice stone or foot file to remove dead skin, filing and shaping toenails as well as cuticle care services. Some spa pedicures offer additional massage therapy as well as adding one or more nail polishes for an added spa pedicure experience.

Pedicures offer more than cosmetic benefits; they also have real health advantages, including decreasing dead skin build-up, improving circulation and warding off infections. Spas have higher hygiene standards with clean tools and sanitized chairs than corner nail bars can.

Luxury spa pedicures typically involve scrub exfoliation of legs and feet using hot towel treatment, paraffin wax dipping to moisturize and soften feet, soothing leg and foot massage, followed by polish of your choice applied with your choice of flip flops as you head home – remembering not to ruin them by wearing sweaty shoes and socks!

Nail Trimming

Foot and nail treatments have become an extremely popular trend within the beauty salon industry, leading to substantial expansion across nail spas and salons nationwide as well as an increase in specialized pedicure options.

A typical pedicure typically involves a quick foot soak, scrub, nail trim and file, nail polish application and some additional extras such as scented foot lotion or cream, hot towel wraps and luxurious brand products – the latter may even include paraffin dip (for legs). But spa pedicures go beyond these basics by including special touches like scent-filled cream or lotion, hot towel wraps and luxurious brand products to elevate the experience further.

Pedis are great treatments to soothe tired feet. A typical pedicure also often includes a foot massage, making this treatment perfect for soothing fatigued digits. If you suffer from fungal nail or skin conditions such as fungal toenail fungus or athlete’s foot fungus, make sure you mention that to your nail technician so they can recommend an appropriate course of treatment for you – otherwise just sit back and enjoy! Your feet deserve it! After the service make sure your newly polished high gloss nails dry fully before wearing socks or shoes over them to avoid having glossy new high gloss nails in between sessions!

Massage

An affordable nail bar pedicure can be an excellent way to maintain beautiful feet between spa visits. But a spa pedicure takes it one step further and should be considered essential if you want your feet feeling like clouds when walking!

Spa pedicures typically include extras such as luxurious foot and leg massage, aromatherapy products and aromatherapy oils to create a truly relaxing experience. This massage helps relieve tension in both feet and legs, improve circulation and relax muscles for ultimate relaxation.

Massage can also help with dry skin and nails, so the salon may suggest purchasing products to keep your feet moisturized between pedicures. They’re often available for sale at the salon as well, ensuring you can continue looking your best even outside its walls!
