Home Foot Spa -- A Little Oasis of Relief

After a long day of work, taking care of the home, and running errands -- being on-call for every little thing that happens in the family can just wear a person out. You really need a little "me" time to recover and relax. Better yet, a session at the spa would be ideal. But who has time for that?

A foot spa, on the other hand, takes just a few minutes. That's important when time is precious. Fill the foot bath basin with water then take the time to sink down for a rest. Dip your feet in the soothing liquid. Let the water surround your toes, the bottoms of your feet, the top of your feet up to your ankles. It's almost like a quiet meditation... but in a way, more practical.

Buy a foot spa that suits your specific needs. There are a lot of options available, but for some, the most basic requirement is that the water is heated. Next in rank of requirements it that the water bubbles to stimulate and soothe your feet all at once. Another option is that the foot spa has accessories to do a pedicure at the same time if you want. The Homedics BL-200 JetSpa Footbath has all these features -- plus the added benefit that it comes in a lovely color.

It is also super quiet. Who needs a noisy engine sound when you are trying to relax during your foot spa treatment anyway? The only sound is the soft, gentle bubbling of water which can serve as a mask to other noises in the house. This expands the entire concept of a few quiet moments of spa relaxation in your own home.

The Homedics BL-200 JetSpa Footbath has another convenient, practical feature. It has a carrying handle! This makes it easy to carry this little personal spa from the cupboard where you've stored it to a spot by the comfy chair where you're going to use it. The carrying handle is particularly useful for when you dump the water after your foot spa treatment and put this fine piece of personal equipment away again.
