When I scheduled for the Ashiatsu Oriental Bar Therapy at in , Connecticut I admit, I was skeptical. The idea of having someone’s feet massaging me for an hour intimidated me.

Arriving for my Footlogix Pediceutical treatment I was pretty sceptical. I did not believe that even in the Winter, when all of our feet are dry and damaged from the cold, my feet would feel soft and wonderful again. Usually I hide my feet all Winter long in the comfort of my socks and boots and don’t even think about getting a pedicure…but now I am a changed woman! “Where Medi meets the Pedi!” Jess explained. She swears by this pedicure (and so does everyone else once they try it themselves). First she helped me pick out a fabulous color, “Diva of Geneva” by OPI and then we began to […]
