The expert nail technicians at Sculpt Plus soothe scraggy digits and cuticle-ridden toes with tranquil manicures and pedicures. During the spa mani-pedi, a steady-handed manicurist trims and shapes jagged nails, eradicates overgrown cuticles, and expertly applies a skin tone-complementing polish to fingernails and toehammers. The decadent treatment includes a sea-salt scrub to slough off dead dermis and rainbow residue from feet and ends with a hydrating foot mask. Unwind in Sculpt Plus's positive, peaceful atmosphere, an oasis devoid of daily stressors and protesters of pampering.
