You already know that a mani-pedi makes your nails look fantastic. And it IS time to get ready for those toes to show this Spring. But, what you may not know is that a professional nail treatment actually has long-term and health benefits as well! There are some excellent reasons why this should be more than just the occasional luxury experience.
1. Hand and Foot Massages Increase Blood Flow
Hand and foot massages promote blood flow and increased blood circulation, reducing muscle tension, thereby, allowing greater mobility in the joints and less strain in those overworked muscles.
2. Prevents Infections.
Over time, many germs, dirt and pollutants your nails are exposed to on a daily basis can get stuck in the hard-to-reach areas beneath and around our nail bed. This can quickly spread germs to vulnerable parts of our body. A mani or pedi will thoroughly remove dirt and bacteria, lessening your chances of infection, nail fungi AND getting sick. The clipping, cleaning and cutting of your toenails will prevent your nails from growing inwards and causing an infection as well. Moisturizing the dry skin on your feet on a regular basis can also stop infection by preventing cracks that may form otherwise.
3. Boosted Nail Health
Deep exfoliation is as beneficial as it is enjoyable. Calluses build up on the base of our feet over time, especially when we wear heels, exercise and walk around barefoot. Exfoliating the calluses on the bottom of your feet can help to even out the bottom and improve weight distribution – this may alleviate leg and back pain. Exfoliating is also vital for removing dead skin, smoothing wrinkles and stimulating collagen production in the skin, encouraging new cell growth, leaving your nails stronger and healthier.
4. It Can Make Your Hands and Feet Look Younger.
Manicures and pedicures improve blood flow, which is important in reducing cellulite, tightening your skin, and strengthening your muscles — all of which can improve the visible appearance of your hands and feet.
5. Improved Mental Health.
The massage, relaxing experience and pampering will free your mind from any tension, boosting your mental health and doing wonders for your stress levels!
