In this episode of The Spirit of Lux, Paul Jones is joined by the best pedicure in the world, Bastien Gonzalez. Bastien grew up an avid skier and went on to become an instructor at the Super-Lioran ski station in Auvergne, where a bad accident dramatically changed his career path. It was during his own rehabilitation with physiotherapy that he met a podiatrist, and he knew instantly that this was what he was born to do. In 1997 he qualified in podiatry and at 24, and as an aesthete and sybarite, he opened his first Paris studio in the prestigious Place des Vosges.  There's a lot to cover in this episode. We dive into a marvelous journey with Bastien on how he started and became the best, the impact of Mauritius on his career and his recent collaboration with Lux Grand Baie where the guests can experience the world-class service of Pedi:Mani:Cure by Bastien Gonzalez. Bastien is rarely in one place, flying between his studio London, his HQ in Paris, or to New York, Dubai, Hong Kong or Singapore to meet with his teams. He also looks after his own private clients, who include some of the biggest stars in Hollywood and the most well-known names in the worlds of fashion, art and finance.
