Whether your job requires you to be on your feet all day or you spend many hours behind a desk, there is no denying the relaxing effect of a soothing foot spa. While there are a number of electric spa appliances out there, the most important thing to remember is that it really is about the treatment products you use and the environment you create.
\nIf you receive a pamper hamper from a loved one and you are looking for the best way to enjoy these products, here are some great tips. Remember, not all of the products in the hamper are designed for your feet but they can be used while you enjoy your foot spa session for a completely relaxing time out from your daily activities.
\nFirst, you will need to slip into something comfortable. You might like to have a quick shower, wash your hair and put those Pjs on. Now, set up your music, TV, or grab a book. Get a bowl (large enough for your feet) and add warm water. Make sure it’s not too full since the water level will rise when you put your feet in. Add your essential oils and other products. Peppermint oil has revitalising quaites while almonds and milk help soften feet. Epsom salts are great for swollen feet.
\nGive your feet a good soak for up to 10 minutes or as long s 15 minutes if you want a greater softening effect. Now dry your feet using a clean towel and treat your toenails to a trim. While you do, push your cuticles back while they are still soft.
\nNow it’s time to inspect your feet and remove any dry, dead skin if necessary. Massage your feet with a suitable foot lotion designed to treat any problems you may have. So, if you suffer from dry, cracked heels, use a repair cream for this purpose. If you like, you can even treat your toenails so a fresh coat of nail polish to make them look as good as they feel!
\nRemember, even if you don’t want or need a foot spa treatment, a loved one might. Why not surprise them by setting it all up and letting them relax while you treat their feet?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
