Chocolate Pedicures

Try a special pedicure.

This special pedicure is based on Chicago’s Chocolate For Your Body Spa.

This pedicure takes part in two steps relaxing tense muscles in your feet, makes your feet softer and some say it has a tranquilizing power on people getting a pedicure with it.

Step Number 1- The manager of the above mentioned spa, Laura Wilezynska, said, “Chocolate is loaded with  antioxidants  (even more so than green tea and wine)

which work to calm and protect your skin. This scrub works to calm and protect your skin. This scrub, based on our signature chocolate pedicure, is relaxing and good for your feet.
