If there is one thing we overlook and this does'nt mean just drivers, but just about everyone...it's the care and pampering of our feet.
A couple who knew what I did for a living decided to get me a gift certificate for a spa pedicure for my birthday. This past weekend I decided to redeem it.
My first thought after walking into this Vietnamese-owned salon was the chemical smell ( all the workers were wearing surgical masks)..was how the hell can you work here without losing key brain cells.
They immediately sat me down in a massage chair/built-in-foot spa. The water was warmed while I fiddled with the chair controller for a full neck-to-calf massage.
After soaking my feet in warm,sweet-smelling-sudsy bubbles, my massager arrived in full battle gear (face mask) and what looked like a fishing gear tool box. She whipped out a brush that looked like a toothbrush on steroids and started to scrub my foot. The feeling was incredible.
After drying both feet, I was given a calf-massage,toenail clipped,sanded and honey lotion for skin hydration and she even pulled my toes until it "popped". After some cuticle work she used some sort of brush to get the dead skin off.
The time went by so fast I did'nt want it to end. My feet never looked and felt so good before. Women have known about spa treatment for years and its time for us men to try this out. This was the best present I've had in years and thought I'd share the experience with y'all.
and p.s.....you won't even notice that "chemical smell" once it starts....
