Pedicures are not just a luxury they actually have some very real health benefits for both men and women.
The nails protect the toes from trauma so by cutting, clipping filing and cleaning the nails, it will prevent them from breaking, growing inward and becoming infected. The smoothing of hard skin and removal of dead skin by exfoliation prevents a build-up of skin cells which may encourage callouses as well as pain and discomfort. The application of heel repair balm and foot cream softens and hydrates the skin and can prevent painful and unsightly cracking, whilst nourishing the cuticles lessens nail ridging and splitting which can cause the nail to lift away from the nail bed. Finally, massage relieves tension in the feet (which as they say, shows in your face!), and promotes a healthy blood circulation.
