Question BRUISES ON HEELS?

Hi everyone. Just had a customer tell me that while she was tanning yesterday, her heels felt very hot. Today she has the same mark on each heel. It's approximately the size of a quarter on each heel and is very dark like a bruise. It is not a sunburn, or at least not like any sunburn I've ever seen. she says it hurts to the touch. Anyone ever heard or seen this with anyone? Please advise.

Thank you

Re: BRUISES ON HEELS?

Um.... I knew a girl at my school last year who had a similar problem like this...... Her heels were really dark but hers didnt hurt, but i didnt know the outcome of it or how it happened......
Probably just too much pressure on her heels.

Re: BRUISES ON HEELS?

I have one client who burns on the outsides of her heals.

The strange part is that she only burns in the base beds, not the two med pressure units.

Re: BRUISES ON HEELS?

I had a cutomer with the same problem. Had been tanning for months then all of a sudden she had these bruise like marks on both heals. She too got them from the base beds. She is a diabetic so maybe that has something to do with it?
