Foot loose

Now,a dental spa!
USUALLY a visit to a dentist is seen as a dreaded,painful affair but not when it packs in a spa as well! This Wednesday saw the city get its own ‘Dental Spa’ called ‘Toothpik’ in Sector 44. Apart from providing regular dental services,this clinic will provide services like aromatherapy,foot and hand massage,music of choice and even eye masks to make you feel at ease. The venture is a brain child of young and dentist Dr Mehak Jain. “The idea behind the whole exercise is to offer unforgettable atmosphere where the client could relax and actually enjoy treatment,” mentions Dr Jain who will also have special pre-bridal packages for would-be brides. “The Dental Spa concept is popular in advanced countries but is totally new for India,particular for Chandigarh,” added Dr Jain. To make a visit to the dentist a wholesome experience,‘Toothpik’ has also introduced goodie bags for children apart from a special kid’s zone.
