Imperial Foot Care in Westport

imperialfootcare.com

Sorry I don't have any pics to go with this post. I wasn't planning on writing about this place until after I had such an amazing experience and decided I need to share with you! The other night my sweet hubby knew I needed some time to myself and took the girls to a movie. We had just returned from a two week trip to Fl and I had the girls by myself for the last several days including the drive back. Wow, I was just as mentally and emotionally tired as I was physically. I knew I needed an adjustment or massage or something to relieve the tension/stress I felt in my neck, back, and feet. I called a few massage salons and they were booked. I had a pedicure while in the Sunshine St so I didn't want or need another and while trying to figure out how to wisely use my time I remembered someone recommended Imperial Foot Care on Facebook a while back. It specializes in reflexology and offers 30 minute, 60 minute, and 70 minute sessions. The 60 and 70 minute sessions include head, neck, shoulder, arm, and back massage. I called them and made an appointment although they take walk-ins. It is kinda hidden in this little nook on Pennsylvania Ave in Westport, MO. I walked into a dark room with a relaxing fountain trickling water and went to the front desk. We kept our voices low and she led me to one of about a dozen over sized cushy lounge chairs. There was soft music playing and the blacked out windows were covered with sheer curtains. The provider brought a large wooden bucket of warm water for my feet to soak in while he worked on my scalp, neck, shoulders, and arms. Then he gave me the best, and I mean THE BEST foot massage ever!!! I was unaware of how much time had passed and thought that it was over but then he lowered the back of the chair and had me turn to my stomach while he gave me a full back and leg massage. It was like a deep tissue massage and I probably should have asked for the pressure to be lightened some since the next day I was so sore lol! But in the moment it "hurt so good" and I did really enjoy it. I left there feeling like a new woman. Never had I had a reflexology  experience and though the pedicures I get occasionally are great, they are nothing like this! I told my hubby that from now on I'll probably just paint my own toenails and go back here from now on! It was only $15 for a 30 minute experience, $29 for an hour (which is what I got), and $55 for the 70 minute session. Seriously if you haven't been I highly suggest you make a trip in the very near future! They are even open until midnight. I will definitely be going back, hopefully pretty soon : )
