Paraffin Treatment
A paraffin treatment ($25) involves dipping the feet into warm, melted wax that coats the skin. The wax is then allowed to cool and harden, creating a sealed layer that traps heat and moisture. After 10 to 15 minutes, the wax is removed, leaving the skin deeply softened and hydrated.
Paraffin is ideal for clients with dry, rough, or cracked skin on their feet. The warm wax provides a soothing, moisturizing experience. It is a popular add-on during cooler months or for clients whose feet need extra hydration.
Callus Removal
Callus removal ($15 as a pedicure add-on, $65 as a standalone podology service) addresses thickened, hardened skin that builds up on the heels, balls of the feet, or other pressure points. Your technician uses professional tools to safely reduce the callus without damaging the surrounding skin.
Calluses develop from friction and pressure — often from walking, standing, or wearing certain shoes. While some callus is normal, excessive buildup can be uncomfortable. Regular callus care as part of your pedicure keeps your feet smooth and comfortable.
Reflexology
Reflexology ($50 for 30 minutes) is a targeted pressure technique applied to specific points on the feet. These points correspond to different areas of the body in reflexology theory. The technique uses thumb, finger, and hand pressure to create a relaxing, therapeutic experience.
Reflexology is a popular add-on for clients who want extended relaxation during their pedicure. The 30-minute session focuses on the feet and provides a more immersive experience than the standard massage included in a classic pedicure. Reflexology can also be added to podology services.
Other Popular Add-Ons
In addition to paraffin, callus care, and reflexology, we offer several other pedicure enhancements. Aromatherapy ($10) adds essential oils for a calming, sensory experience. A French finish ($10) adds white tips for a classic look. An ingrown nail service ($90) provides professional care for ingrown toenails.
These add-ons allow you to customize your pedicure based on your specific foot care and relaxation needs. Your technician can recommend the most appropriate combination.

| Paraffin | $25 | Deep hydration and softening |
| Callus removal | $15 | Smooth rough, hardened skin |

Combining Add-Ons
Add-ons can be combined for a more comprehensive pedicure experience. For example, a spa pedicure with paraffin, callus removal, and reflexology provides deep hydration, smooth skin, and extended relaxation. Your technician can help you build the ideal combination.
Keep in mind that each add-on adds time to your appointment. If you have a tight schedule, discuss timing with your technician when booking.
When to Choose Specific Add-Ons
Choose paraffin if your feet are dry or cracked. Choose callus removal if you have noticeable callus buildup. Choose reflexology if you want extended relaxation and therapeutic foot work. Choose aromatherapy if you enjoy a sensory, calming experience. Choose a French finish if you want a classic, polished look.
If you are unsure which add-ons are right for you, ask your technician. They can assess your feet and recommend the most beneficial enhancements.
Important Note
Pedicure add-ons are cosmetic and wellness-oriented. They are not medical treatments. If you have a foot condition, infection, or medical concern, consult a licensed podiatrist or physician. Our podology services address some foot care needs, but they are not a substitute for medical care.
