The Bite:
imageToo many back and forths from store to car got you dragging your feet? Step back and go forth to Petite Spa, and try its new Green Tea and Herbal Foot Bath. Soak your swollen dogs in a giant cup of green tea sprinkled with organic flowers (sans pesticides), then hand ’em over for an exfoliating sea-salt-and-organic-oil scrub to help send toxins and excess fluids walking (ladies: Salt irritates freshly shaven legs, so here’s an excuse to spare the hair). Foot reflexology follows with Epicuren peppermint lotion, plus hot and cold compresses to boost circulation - we practically floated outta there. You can also try a so-pure-you-can-lick-your-lips facial with Dr. Alkaitis’ holistic organic skin food, or get ripped with its new organic waxing service and lose the fro below.
Wanna Try: 
Petite Spa, 723 Broadway at Lincoln Blvd., Santa Monica (310-393-3105). Green Tea and Herbal Foot Bath, $75/45 minutes.

Feet can increase in size by as much as 5%-10% from morning to night.
