Why Peppermint Is Our New Favorite Self-Care Secret

Tarrah Bouts, Owner & Licensed Esthetician

Okay, we have to tell you — We’ve been obsessed with peppermint lately. Not just in tea or candles (though we love those too), but in our self-care routine. You know that cool, tingly feeling you get when you use peppermint oil? It’s like instant energy for your body and brain. And honestly, after a long week, that’s exactly what we need.

If your feet have been tired, sore, or just begging for attention, you are going to love what peppermint can do!

The Magic of Peppermint

Peppermint is one of those ingredients that does everything. It’s naturally cooling and refreshing, so it helps calm sore muscles and reduce swelling. The scent alone clears your head and boosts your mood — it’s like aromatherapy and a caffeine boost in one.

Plus, peppermint oil has natural antibacterial properties, which means it keeps your skin clean, fresh, and happy. Basically: it’s nature’s reset button.

Our Go-To: The Peppermint Pedicure

If you haven’t tried our seasonal Peppermint Patty Pedicure, you are missing out. It starts with a peppermint PediRedi soak that feels heavenly — cool, tingly, and super relaxing. It softens the skin, melts away tension, and leaves your feet feeling brand new. Then we add a touch of indulgence with a chocolate-scented Eco-Fin treatment. Imagine the rich aroma of chocolate mixed with that cool, minty tingle — it’s like dessert for your feet.

Your skin feels buttery-smooth, your feet are baby-soft, and the scent is pure comfort. It’s equal parts refreshing and indulgent — like a peppermint patty, but without the calories. It’s the perfect “treat yourself” moment when you need a little midweek magic.

The Perfect Add-On: Peppermint Foot Renewal

Now, if you’re coming in for a massage (and you totally should), you have to add the Peppermint Foot Renewal. It uses our Herbology Foot Exfoliant to buff away all the rough, dry skin — and then we massage in a custom peppermint essential oil to soothe and cool.

It’s one of those treatments that’s relaxing and energizing at the same time. You’ll leave feeling refreshed, soft, and just a little more like yourself again.

Why We Love It

What we love most about these peppermint services is how they make you feel awake again. After a long week or a busy season, it’s like pressing reset on your whole body — and your mood.

So next time treat yourself to something cool and sweet and try the Peppermint Patty Pedi for that mint-chocolate indulgence, or add a Peppermint Foot Renewal to your massage for the ultimate refresh.
