Have you ever struggled to reach your feet, shoulders, or back while showering or bathing? If so, Western New Yorker Kathe D’Alfonso has patented her simple inexpensive invention, and it may be just what you need.

Kathe’s invention is a long flexible wand with washable lotion mitts that fit snugly over the top of the wand. They can be used for cleansing, applying sunscreen and lotion, and more.

Why is washing your back and feet thoroughly important?

  • Your back accumulates sweat, oil, and dirt, which can lead to body odor, bacteria, fungi, infections, and skin irritations.
  • The back is prone to clogged pores, which can lead to breakouts making it important to remove dead skin cells, excess oil, and bacteria that can cause acne.
  • Scrubbing or exfoliating the back stimulates blood flow, which helps with skin renewal and overall skin health.
  • Your feet are in constant contact with the ground, shoes, and socks, making them a breeding ground for bacteria and fungi.
  • Sweat and bacteria build up on your feet throughout the day. Washing them helps reduce odor and keeps your feet fresh.
  • Fungi thrive in warm, moist environments like sweaty feet. Washing and drying your feet thoroughly can prevent fungal infections such as athlete’s foot.
  • Exfoliating and moisturizing your feet can prevent rough patches, cracks, and calluses, keeping your skin soft and healthy.
  • Feet are often neglected in the shower, but they accumulate a lot of grime. Cleaning them properly reduces the risk of infections and keeps your skin in good condition.
  • Scrubbing your feet can stimulate circulation, which is especially beneficial for people with diabetes or circulation issues.
