Post-hiking pedicure August 2026: after summer walks

1. Post-hiking diagnosis — 4 damages

On hiking return, we observe:

• Heel calluses thickened — 5-10 mm on heel sides, sign of prolonged closed-shoe walking.
• Healed blisters — often outer foot edge, forefoot. Left to dry = cardboard skin.
• Damaged nails — descent shocks (toe hits front of shoe), sometimes black sub-ungual haematoma.
• Mild oedema — end of day, tired feet.

Free diagnosis at start of treatment. If painful sub-ungual haematoma: refer to podiatrist.

2. The You Rêve protocol — 50 min

Our SPA Luxe post-hiking pedicure:

1. Cool 18 °C mint + camphor bath 10 min — decongestion.
2. Heel + outer-foot callus filing 10 min — professional tool.
3. Local healed-blister care: repair cream + healing balm.
4. Deep drainage massage foot → ankle → calf 15 min.
5. Nourishing foot cream — supple skin again.
6. Cut + file + cream + OPI polish or semi-permanent of choice.

50 min, €70. Immediate effect, "new feet" sensation.

3. When to come back

To rebuild feet after major effort:

• 1 session immediate return (day 1-3).
• 1 session 2 weeks later for upkeep.
• Then normal monthly routine.

4. Home care between sessions

To upkeep between pedicures:

• Heel repair cream evening (10 urea).
• Cool foot bath 10 min, 2-3 times per week.
• Gentle file 1x/week, never metal rasp.
• Firm slippers, no prolonged barefoot on hard floors.
