Although it’s often very enjoyable to get your nails done, there are some good reasons why it should be more than just an occasional luxury experience. There are a number of benefits to regularly investing in manicures and pedicures, and they go much further than just aesthetics.
The Top Benefits to Manicures and Pedicures
1. Ongoing Nail Health
Not only do manicures and pedicures make your nails look great, but they also provide a deep clean for your nails. It plays an important part in keeping your nails healthy, which is essential with our hands and feet going through a lot on a daily basis.
Regular manicures and pedicures ensure the removal of dead skill cells, encouraging new skin cell growth. New skin cells play a key role in keeping your nails strong and healthy. Regular manicures and pedicures also help make sure your nails don’t get into a poor condition, helping avoid things like fungal infections.
2. A Circulation Boost
Manicures and pedicures usually involve a massage on your hands/feet. Massages are a fast and effective way to boost your circulation, which is essential, especially in the winter months.
Poor circulation can result in cold or numbness in your hands/feet, as well as swelling or joint pain. Massages help increase blood flow around the body to improve joint mobility and reduce swelling and pain.
3. Ensuring Good Condition
Our hands and feet can be exposed to harsh environments and experiences. Whether it’s walking long distances in uncomfortable shoes or withstanding extreme weather conditions, such as snow and ice, it’s easy to forget that these parts of our bodies need some care and attention too.
Regularly scheduling manicures and pedicures will ensure that nails are kept in good condition, and the skin on your hands and feet stays soft and well-cared for. This can helps avoid a number of issues like cracked hands and feet calluses.
4. The De-Stress Element
Manicures and pedicures are incredibly relaxing, but also a great way to set some aside time that is just for you. Whether you need time to think or just want to do something for yourself, the experience provides plenty of benefits, giving you the opportunity to just sit back and relax. Plus, the impact of taking care of your nails, both in terms of aesthetics and contentment, can make you feel good long after you finish the appointment.
These are just some of the benefits of having regular manicures and pedicures – there is a lot more to the experience than just a great finish.
