Foot reflexology and back and shoulder relaxation are two of the least booked items on the menu, mostly because their names do not say much on their own. Both are cosmetic relaxation treatments, bookings from women only, carried out by a female beautician, and neither is a medical or therapeutic service.
Foot reflexology
A focused foot treatment: pressure applied across the sole and around the ankle, along with a foot soak and moisturising. It is ₹599 for about 30 minutes. It is not a pedicure and does not include nail work; think of it as the relaxation counterpart to a pedicure, for when your feet are tired rather than in need of grooming.
People who are on their feet all day, or who have just finished a long trip, tend to notice this the most. It is a cosmetic comfort treatment, not a diagnosis or treatment of any foot condition. Diabetic or sensitive feet should be mentioned at booking, and see our pedicure guide for diabetic and sensitive feet for what to check first.
Back and shoulder relaxation
A cosmetic relaxation treatment for the back and shoulders using aromatherapy oil, ₹599 for about 30 minutes. It is aimed at general tiredness and tension, the kind that comes from a desk job or a long day standing, not an injury or a medical condition. If you have a slipped disc, chronic pain or any diagnosed condition, this is not the right service; please see a physiotherapist.

When it makes sense to book
- Add it to a longer booking. Most people who try these book them alongside a facial or manicure and pedicure rather than on their own.
- After a long stretch on your feet. Reflexology suits this specifically.
- General tiredness, not pain. If it is pain rather than tiredness, see a doctor first.
Ask us to add either one to your next booking if you want to try it. Tell us honestly whether it is tiredness or pain, so we can tell you if this is the right service.
