At the day spa, people can drop in for massages, facials, body treatments, manicures and pedicures. Often, day spas are an extension of a hair salon. This is fine, as long as the spa offers a quiet, serene, environment.
But no one is regulating use of the word spa. That's why some salons promote spa services when all they have is one massage table, or use names like "spa pedicure." If you have any doubt, check out the facilities yourself before booking an appointment. Just drop in and ask for a quick tour.
At a minimum, a day spa should offer professionally administered massages, facials and body treatments in a quiet, serene atmosphere.
For massaging your feet, you can prepare a bubbling foot spa, consisting of warm water with a tablespoon of salt mixed in it. Immerse your feet in the warm water for about 15 to 20 minutes and then take a soft clean towel and dry your feet gently and you will experience an ultimate relaxation. Then take massage oil and treat your feet with a complete massage encompassing footpad and arch massage, toe massage, heel and ankle massage.
