We’ve been dreaming about shorts, tank tops and flip-flops for months now, as cold and snow plagued Atlanta for what seemed to be a longer winter than usual.

The time during the off-summer season is perfect for sculpting the summer body and training in the gym or outside each day.

With the amount of time and energy dedicated to keeping one’s physique in great shape, hardly any consideration is offered over how to keep one’s fingers and toenails slick, professional and presentable.

Manicures for a man are within your reach, but it’s more than just looking presentable, manicures and pedicures have many benefits that promote the overall look of success and good health.

Benefits of Recieving A Manicure and Pedicure

Skin Care – Hands are constantly touching something every throughout the day, which means they’re picking up germs that could drastically affect one’s health and condition.

When walking in sandals or flip flops during hot summer days in Atlanta, feet can pick up bacteria as well, leaving someone prone to harmful irritations or infections.

A professional manicure and pedicure includes a thorough cleaning and moisturizing that uses lotions designed to exfoliate the skin. This removes all dead skin, as well as any calluses that build up on the inside of the hands and feet.

Exfoliation the skin around both feet can even help distribute weight more evenly across the surface, which reduces leg and back pain after standing for long periods around the office.

Blood Flow – Any type of massage therapy allows blood to flow more in the targeted body zone. In the case of one’s hands and feet, massage therapy, while getting a pedicure and manicure can help reduce pain and help the body distribute heat more evenly. Aside from increasing blood flow, who doesn’t enjoy a relaxing foot or hand massage after a long day at the office? It can relieve stress and produce endorphins, relieving the stresses of the day.
Foot Odor – The exfoliation a foot receives during a pedicure will help to greatly reduce the dead skin and bacteria that can remain on feet through normal washing. Bacteria and dead skin causes foot odor and if not properly treated, can turn into a more severe fungal infections.
Fungal Infections – Feet that are left unkept can actually start to have fungus form underneath nails, especially when exposed to moisture. Luckily, a professional mobile grooming manicurist and pedicurist is able to identify a fungal infection, even in early stages. In most cases, working with such professionals allows for any possible issue to be resolved immediately with nail treatment and exfoliation. Incorporating regular manicures and pedicures into a daily grooming routine helps maintain the long-term health and appearance of nails.
Confidence – Walking around with clean hands and feet means that much more confidence when out in public. Maintaining a complete look of confidence and success goes beyond a suit or well polished shoes, it includes the basic necessities that demand professional haircuts that are complimented with well groomed nails.
