Devi balm for heel care

Thanks to the high content of Chilean wild rose oil, cocoa butter and beeswax, skin hydration improves immediately, tired feet regain vitality, and the presence of essential oils of sage, tea tree, lavender and cloves prevents infections.

The feet are a complex part of our anatomy with many bones, joints, ligaments, sweat glands and most nerve endings. Fat pads that cover the feet absorb shocks when walking, and as we age they become thinner, which can be problematic and painful for the elderly. Wearing inadequate footwear can cause a number of deformities, or accelerate the formation of rough skin on the heels, corns, calluses or ingrown nails. Increased sweating of the feet and fungal infections can lead to nail loss, and in extreme cases even to gangrene. Even when the feet are completely healthy, regular care is necessary in order to prevent disorders and roughness of the skin.

The most common problems that occur on the feet are:

• roughened and cracked skin on the heels
• fungal infections of the feet
• fungal nail infection
• athlete’s foot
• increased sweating
• unpleasant foot odour

Devi heel care balm contains the essential oils of tea tree, sage and cloves, which are a great prevention and help to treat fungal infections and unpleasant foot odours, while the high-quality oils, in addition to their regenerative action, prevent dry skin, nourish, soften and repair damaged skin.
