What’s Included in a Spa Pedicure? Relax Stress vs Refresh Explained
At Forever Nails Spa in Commack, a spa pedicure is either the $55 Relax Stress or the $70 Refresh Anti-Inflammatory. Both include sea salt, a sugar scrub, a crème mask, massage lotion, callus care, massage and regular color; the Refresh adds a hot towel wrap, hot stone and a longer 15-minute massage.
What do both spa pedicures include?
Our two spa pedicures share the same foundation. Each one starts with sea salt, moves to a sugar scrub and a crème mask, uses massage lotion, takes care of calluses, includes a massage and finishes with regular color. Where they differ is the extras around that base and the length of the massage. Here is every step from our menu, side by side.

Relax Stress ($55): who is it for?
Our menu describes the Relax Stress pedicure as made for stressed, swollen, tired feet. It includes callus removal and a 10-minute massage, and it is the only spa pedicure where you choose a scent. The eight options are Lavender, Milk & Honey, Green Tea, Jasmine, Coffee, Olive, Cucumber and Lemon.
It suits people who spend long days on their feet, anyone who wants a calmer appointment than a quick polish change, and clients who like picking a scent that matches their mood. If ten minutes of massage is what you are after, Relax Stress is the better value of the two.
Refresh Anti-Inflammatory ($70): who is it for?
Our menu describes the Refresh Anti-Inflammatory pedicure as one that helps increase circulation. On top of the shared base, it adds a wrap with a hot towel, callus treatment, a hot stone and a 15-minute massage, then regular color.
It suits clients who want the full ritual: more time, more warmth and the longest massage on our menu. It is a good pick for a birthday, a day off or the end of a long week.
A quick note on health: anyone with diabetes, circulation problems or open cuts on the feet or legs should check with their doctor before booking a spa pedicure or massage. Tell your technician about any tender spots when you sit down.
How do they compare to a regular or gel pedicure?
| Pedicure | Best for | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Regular pedicure | Clean, tidy nails and fresh regular color | $28 |
| Gel pedicure | Longer-wearing gel color | $40 |
| Relax Stress | Scrub, mask, scent of your choice, 10‑minute massage | $55 |
| Refresh Anti-Inflammatory | Everything plus hot towel, hot stone, 15‑minute massage | $70 |
Both spa pedicures finish with regular color, not gel. If long-wearing color matters most, the $40 gel pedicure is the service for that. If what you want is the scrub, mask and massage, a spa pedicure is the step up: the Relax Stress is $27 more than a regular pedicure, and the Refresh is $15 more than the Relax Stress.
