The challenges of taking care of your skin are often a simple lack of putting the time aside. Make it easy on yourself by visiting Glow Spa! For the wintery warm-up, let’s focus on making your feet fabulous, the benefits of using paraffin wax, and the use of hot stones in massage.

FAB FEET

Did you know there are 26 hardworking bones in your feet which give you mobility? Along with tendons, ligaments, and joints, your feet bear all of your weight, provide agility, and last you your whole life. Be sure to invest in footwear that fits and make your feet a priority.

Simple feet exercises like stretching, rising up on toes, and clenching and unclenching toes on a towel, will help them stay flexible and strong. Pay attention to your heels, arch, toes, ankles and keep an eye out for any problems like circulation issues, numbness, swelling, or pain. Be sure to seek out professional help for any worsening symptoms.

Cold feet? At Glow Spa, pamper your feet with the renowned Gehwol Warming Cream that creates a warming sensation with its chili and ginger extract.

PARAFFIN PERFECTION

Caring for your feet can also include the regular use of creams, foot soaks, and massage. If you haven’t already, try paraffin wax for improving your foot health. It increases blood flow which aids in promoting circulation, and as a bonus gives an immediate youthful appearance to skin. Paraffin wax also relieves both soreness and joint stiffness, and both incredibly and instantly, moisturizes skin.

Booking a pedicure? Swap out polish for a paraffin treatment and give your nails time to breathe over the winter months by being polish free.

SOME LIKE IT HOT

Another winter warm-up at Glow Spa includes the use of hot stones in massage. From Hawaii to India, to China to North America, heating smooth stones and positioning them where needed have been used both in history and recently for their healing powers.

The hot stones, having absorbed and retained heat, are carefully placed, most commonly, along the lower back, chest, forehead, palms, face, and feet. The combination of heat and massage promotes healing in these areas by increasing blood flow. The heat is also oh-so-soothing, relieving both tension and pain in muscles.

The services which contain hot stones include Warm Stone Pedicure, Serenity Now, Custom Aromatherapy Massage, the Hot Stone RMT massage (available in both 60 minutes, and 90- minute treatments) and the Head-to-Toe De-Stresser.
