Warm Wax Therapy
How does it work?
Warm wax therapy increases blood flow, tolerance for pain, relaxes muscles and increases hydration in the skin.
It is intended to moisturise and soften the skin while providing a therapeutic and healing effect to sore and aching joints. It particularly benefits those suffering from arthritis and rheumatic pain and tendon injuries.

Conditions that benefit from therapeutic wax treatments:
What the treatment entails
Your feet will be exfoliated and then submersed in a warm foot spa containing a vegan foot soak and soaking salts (Himalayan pink salt, dead sea salt, Epsom salt)
Following this your feet will be dried and your feet massaged with an infused lavender oil.
The application of the wax will take a few minutes to complete. We use single, hygienic wax pods and a warmed soft brush to apply the warm wax giving a luxurious & relaxing experience. Disposable booties will be applied and the wax is then left on until set. After this time, the wax will be peeled off and a luxury balm will be massaged into your feet, leaving your feet silky smooth.
Patient Reviews
Mrs C: " It was like having a facial but on my feet. My feet were left extremely soft and I will certainly be booking in again."
Miss D: " A very relaxing treatment. It really helped soothe my achey joints. I would highly recommend this treatment."
Mr O: " It was a nice change adding this to the end of my treatment. I suffer with a lot of dry skin around my heels but this treatment really helped bring moisture back into my feet and left them very soft."
Paraffin wax treatments are NOT SUITABLE for those with uncontrolled diabetes, people with varicose veins or vascular abnormalities, broken skin/open wounds or for anyone with an allergy to any of the ingredients.
Foot Masks and Enzyme Peels
Luxury Foot Mask
The foot mask is a great treat for your feet and you will be given a choice of either mint and lime or lavender. The mint and lime mask creates a cool, tingling sensation on your feet as the ingredients work together to help unclog any blocked pores in your feet and make them feel refreshed. The lavender mask creates a warming sensation on your feet.
Both masks contain calendula which naturally stimulates collagen production to help with rehydration and elasticity of the skin.
Your feet will be gently exfoliated and soaked in a warm foot spa and then dried using warm towels followed by application of your chosen mask. After 10-15 minutes, the mask will be removed, a balm massaged in to your feet with an application of cuticle oil to finish. The mask can be left on if you prefer, as it is gradually absorbed in to your skin like a moisturiser, it does not leave a sticky or tacky residue.
This is not a peeling mask so you will not be left with bits peeling off your skin afterwards.
Enzyme Peel
The enzyme foot peel contains a blend of specifically selected ingredients, to provide a soothing and rehydrating foot care treatment.
First your feet will be gently exfoliated and soaked in a warm foot spa. Your feet will be dried using warm towels, then the enzyme peel will be applied and left for 10-15 minutes. We avoid applying any of the peel in between your toes as this can already be a soft and moist environment. It will feel rather cool to start with. This is normal and refreshing.
One of the main ingredients in this peel is Hyaluronic Acid (from plum extract). This keeps skin supple and hydrated. It contains a powerful moisture binding ingredient that allows the skin to retain moisture. It increases collagen synthesis. The peel is then removed and a luxury balm massaged in to your feet followed by application of cuticle oil to finish.
