Different seasons call for different ways to massage and moisturize feet. Establish a year-round schedule fit for seasonal skin requirements. Use thick, oil-based lotions in winter and spend more time kneading them deeply, precisely into the skin. Choose mild, water-based lotions and utilize delicate, spreading techniques free of extra heat generation throughout summer. Spring and fall need for mixed strategies using medium-weight moisturizers and moderate pressure tactics. Always focus especially on problem regions like heels and calluses, changing the massage's strength and length depending on skin condition.
