How Professional Nail Care Keeps Your Skin and Nails Healthy
by admin February 14 2019
We all love a good manicure and pedicure. They’re relaxing and fun, especially if we bring along friends for some good conversation while we’re pampered at the spa. While many of us only get them for special occasions, a regular schedule of professional manicures and pedicures is healthy for your nails and skin. Here’s why.
Massage. We all love the massage portion of our the mani/pedi, but its benefits are more than just relaxing. Massage stimulates blood circulation, which helps deliver more oxygen to your skin and muscles, improving cell function and stimulating the healthy rejuvenation processes.
Infection prevention. Fungal infections can be painful and unsightly, and many times it’s easy to miss signs of a developing infection. Your professional nail technician can spot these signs and has the tools to address them before the infection becomes a problem.
Exfoliation. The mani/pedi process also includes exfoliation, which is important for healthy skin. Exfoliation removes dead skin cells and trapped dirt that can clog your pores, possibly causing breakouts and making your skin look dull. A regular schedule of exfoliation helps keep your skin clean and bright and encourages new growth for healthy skin and nails.
Fight the elements. In the winter, your hands are exposed to harsh elements, including cold winds, low humidity, and dry, heated indoor air. This can rob your skin of moisture and leave you with dry, cracked skin. Regular manicures keep your hands hydrated and include products that infuse antioxidants and other nutrients for healthy, soft skin.
Unplug. Finally, the power of relaxation is a crucial part of your health and well-being. Any time you can unplug from the day’s stress and relax can reduce the negative effects of stress on your body. Regular mani/pedi appointments deliver a regular schedule of unplugged “me” time that’s an important part of your wellness routine.
