What does Ocean Mud Pedi Scrub do?
This is as close to walking the beach as it gets — without leaving your treatment room. Ocean Mud Pedi Scrub delivers an authentic ocean experience for the feet, using hand-harvested sea mud and seaweed to exfoliate, nourish, and revitalize tired, rough feet. The naturally sphered mud granules buff away calluses and dead skin while marine minerals replenish and refresh. For spa professionals, this is your signature pedicure product that transforms a standard foot treatment into a coastal escape.
What makes Ocean Mud Pedi Scrub unique?
Hand-harvested from the shoreline. Shaped by the tides. Perfect for feet.
The ocean mud foundation:
- Maris limus (ocean mud) — hand-harvested from the tidal zone near Seaflora’s facility. These granules have been naturally tumbled by thousands of tidal cycles into perfectly sphered particles that exfoliate effectively without scratching or damaging skin. It’s nature’s own pedicure tool — the same gentle polishing action as sand beneath your feet on a beach walk.
The seaweed blend:
- Mazzaella splendens — Seaflora’s signature red algae, rich in antioxidant polysaccharides that soothe and hydrate
- Macrocystis pyrifera (giant kelp) — delivers minerals, vitamins, and amino acids that nourish hardworking feet
The nourishing oils:
- Olive oil — deeply moisturizing essential fatty acids
- Avocado oil — penetrating nourishment for thick, dry foot skin
- Apricot kernel oil — softening and smoothing
The therapeutic aromatherapy:
- Lavender essential oil — calming, antiseptic, and soothing for tired feet
- Roman chamomile essential oil — anti-inflammatory and deeply relaxing
The treatment benefits:
- Removes dead skin cells and calluses
- Increases blood flow to the feet and lower legs
- Stimulates the lymphatic system
- Delivers marine minerals directly to the skin
- Leaves feet soft, smooth, and revitalized

How do I use Ocean Mud Pedi Scrub in treatments?
Signature Ocean Pedicure Protocol:
Step 1: Mineral Soak (10-15 minutes)
- Fill foot bath with warm water
- Add Seaflora Remineralizing Sea Salt Soak (Unscented or Lavender Chamomile)
- Allow feet to soak, softening skin and relaxing muscles
- The minerals begin replenishing while the warmth increases circulation
Step 2: Ocean Mud Exfoliation
- Remove feet from soak and pat slightly damp
- Apply generous amount of Ocean Mud Pedi Scrub
- Massage in circular motions, focusing on heels, balls of feet, and any callused areas
- Work up to ankles and lower calves
- The ocean mud granules buff away dead skin while oils begin nourishing
- Take your time — this is the treatment highlight
Step 3: Rinse and Dry
- Rinse feet thoroughly with warm water
- Pat dry with soft towel
Step 4: Nourishing Massage
- Apply Wild Sea Kelp Body Lotion generously
- Massage feet and lower legs using relaxing techniques
- Focus on pressure points for added therapeutic benefit
- The lotion locks in hydration and continues the marine nourishment
Pro tips for application:
- For very callused feet, let the scrub sit for a minute before massaging to allow oils to soften skin
- Use a bit more pressure on heels and balls of feet, lighter pressure on arches and tops
- Extend the massage up to mid-calf — clients love the extra attention
- The lavender-chamomile scent enhances relaxation; encourage deep breathing
- Warm the lotion before applying for added luxury
- Keep a warm towel ready to wrap feet between steps
