Introducing Gehwol

In 1868 in Lübbecke in the Westphalia region of Germany, the pharmacist Eduard Gerlach opened a drugstore, which was the first of its kind at that time, and laid the foundation for a prospering family business, which, with the brand name Gehwol, has obtained international recognition and has become a synonym for foot-care. Gerlach's Gehwol is rightly regarded as the pioneer of modern foot-care. As a soldier he found out for himself how unbearably painful sore feet can be. As a pharmacist he was able to successfully mix fundamental substances such as potassium carbonate, unsaturated fatty-acids, mineral based lubricants and disinfecting essential oils in such a way that he was able to market "[Gehwol] Preservative Cream" in 1882. Thanks to the unique properties of his special cream and the modern manufacturing methods used, Gerlach was the first person to succeed with the large scale production of a foot-care preparation that was reasonably priced and of consistent high-quality. His Gehwol brand quickly found a ready market, and received many international awards.

ESSpa Kozmetika is privledged to be an authorized Gehwol Spa trained directly by the Company.

Hungarian Spa Manicures include a massage and paraffin bath to help relieve Carpal Tunnel and other hand-stress disorders. ESSpa Kozmetika Pedicures are designed to remove stress and tension in your lower extremities. Our specialists will remove calluses, tend blisters, and treat and prevent fungus & ingrown nails. Ask around and inquire if other salons' "standard" services include a massage and paraffin bath - they don't. Another ESSpa Kozmetika Difference - Eva insists on hospital-grade sterilization of all instruments for each treatment to ensure that your good grooming will not affect your good health. And we use the same, expensive, high-end Gehwol products that we offer for retail sale in our very effective services.
