Pedicure can make people relax, but the foot bacteria brought by unqualified pedicure houses may lead to more problems, such as endogenous nails or infections.

Health and longevity is a problem that modern people are very concerned about, especially in this society with great pressure, psychological fatigue and sub-health of body and mind, it is necessary to pay more attention to health care. However, people have not paid enough attention to the foot as a tool for human walking. How to do a good job in foot health care and make your feet healthy and beautiful should attract everyone's attention.
1, insist on soaking feet every night.
It is more suitable for women with cold body to soak their feet at night. If you can persist in soaking your feet every night, your physical condition will be greatly improved. To soak your feet, you can choose to add 40℃ hot water to the wooden basin or foot bath massage basin, soak it for 15-20 minutes, and dry it with a towel after you feel hot. Especially in autumn and winter, women with cold hands and feet need to keep soaking their feet, which can not only maintain their feet, drive away the troubles of gynecological diseases, but also make you feel relaxed and happy. But it is not suitable for menstrual period and pregnant women to soak their feet.
2, learn to self-foot massage
Foot massage can not only relieve foot pain caused by wearing high heels, but also promote blood circulation and relieve ligament pressure. Self-foot massage should first consider the painful parts, such as soles, ankles, toes, calves and so on. Use a massage cream rich in oil and gently press it with your thumb to achieve the purpose of health care. But it is best for women to avoid foot massage during menstruation.
3. Small moves to relieve pain
Female friends can do some proper foot exercises during work breaks, such as putting on flat shoes or slippers indoors, sitting in a chair with their legs slightly apart, their feet flat on the ground, raising their heels to the maximum for five seconds, then recovering, then slowly raising their toes for five seconds, and then recovering. The whole movement process should be slow and repeated at least 10 times.
When outdoors, you can put your body's center of gravity on one leg, bend the other leg slightly, touch the ground with your toes, let your ankle completely relax, circle around your toes, do 10 times clockwise and counterclockwise respectively, and then do the same action with your other foot. These little moves can exercise the flexibility of heels and ankles and relieve foot pain.
Step 4 wear the right shoes
Female friends must choose shoes that suit them, and try not to wear high heels if possible. You can also wear a pair of flat shoes with soft soles and thick soles when you walk, and then change into high-heeled shoes when you get to the office. Don't let your feet squeeze into pointed shoes for a long time, which will not only bring pain, but also affect your health. If you have flat feet, you can also put thick insoles on the inside and outside, which can reduce the vibration of walking and make it easier for you to walk.
4. Precautions for foot massage
(1) Manicure before massage
Be sure to make corresponding preparations before massage, including manicure. Maybe many people massage their feet casually, especially girls, and they still have long nails, which can't achieve the purpose of pedicure. Before we massage, we should cut our nails short and clean them. In order to avoid the damage of nails to our skin, we can still keep our hands moist by applying some ointment. After that, you can take a light to heavy pedicure, which can be relatively gentle at first, and then gradually increase the intensity with the acceleration of the progress.
(2) Keep the massage room ventilated.
Massage is also picky about the external environment. When we massage, we must ensure that it is in a ventilated environment. You know, in a closed environment, we are prone to dizziness, which is not conducive to our relaxation. Therefore, it should be possible to open the window for ventilation in an insulated environment, but when summer comes, we should also pay attention. Don't keep blowing the wind against the air conditioner to get a pedicure, it will let the cold invade.
(3) Drink plenty of water during massage.
Although the massage process is relatively relaxed for us, we still need to replenish water in time. Generally speaking, after an hour of massage, you need to drink two large glasses of water. If conditions permit, you can take a rest every half hour and replenish water before doing it. But the water we drink should not be too warm. It is better to drink it hot, which can promote perspiration in the body.
In fact, in addition to the above precautions, we still have to understand that massage is not allowed in some special periods, such as pregnancy and menstrual period. Attention can easily lead to uterine bleeding and affect the health of the fetus. Also, we should understand that pedicure is only an auxiliary treatment, and we can't rely entirely on it.
