The average North American takes between 5,000 to 7,000 steps per day or approximately 20 miles (32 km) per month.  One thing that it is safe to assume is that unless something happens not much thought is given to the care of our feet or even our hands.  Well at least until you stub your toe or maybe you are breaking in new shoes, and you discover that your feet hurt.  This is often more of a concern for women who cram their feet into small raised heeled shoes that look sexy, not comfortable but sexy.  Well, that is until they get older and fine comfort more of a priority then looking sexy!

To this end regardless of the youthfulness of your step what is most important is the occasional pedicure and manicure, almost like rewarding your feet and hands for a job well done and that you have not forgotten their contribution to making you happy.

Pedicures can catch an ingrown toenail before it becomes an issue and in many cases, it can derail your overall mobility.  Whereas a pedicure can also be the cure for the ingrown toenail as the esthetician can in most cases treat the issue.  A pedicure is a cosmetic treatment for the feet with attention paid to nail care and a foot and calve massage for good measure.  Gentlemen, pedicures are not only for the ladies but have records going back to the Egyptians were men also enjoyed a good pedicure and manicure, as no one of sound mind likes ugly feet or hands!

A pedicure well done at Beauty-Full Spa Pickering decreases the risk of infections that can occur if fungi is not removed and let’s not forget eliminating foot odors.  If your toenails are healthy, they are like shields protecting the feet from harmful bacteria.  After all are your feet not the closes part of the body next to the ground?  By exfoliation and the removal of dead skin cells including the removal of bunions, corns and callus discomfort and pain is prevented and lower back pain as you are not walking unevenly due to growth on your feet that is throwing off your balance.
