neat, and clean. For instance, when the doctor examines your nails, he or she is
checking your blood circulation. By looking at your nails, a doctor may find
indications that may be associated with lung disease, skin problems, diabetes, and
other medical conditions. Your nail is in the know! This means that the nails are
potent indicators of certain health conditions.

What’s New

Today, you will discover further the world of hand spa treatment as one of the
ways to take good care of your hands and nails. Try to answer the activity below as
an energizer.

What Is It

Hi! What do you mean by benefit? Benefit is something that is gained or

helpful results that promote well-being.

On the other hand, what is hand treatment? Hand treatment is a procedure

done by trained staff to remove dead cells and callous from the hands.

Read the information below to find out more about the benefits of the hand
spa treatment.
What is Paraffin Hand or Foot Spa?
It is a treatment performed by professionally trained staff. It is done to
replenish, restore, pamper tired hands, keep the nails looking healthy and strong and
rejuvenate tired hands. It is also found helpful to combat aging. This treatment is
accompanied by massage and has many beneficial effects like reduced hand pain,
less anxiety, better mood, improved sleep, greater grip strength, and an increase in
blood circulation.

Once you learned the theories and applications about hand spa, this could be
your stepping stone to augment personal income. This activity can be performed at
home.

The following cautions should be considered in mind when performing paraffin

wax hand treatment;
 It is for external use only. Never heat it up in the microwave since it is
flammable
 Never heat the paraffin wax directly in the stove or electric burner.
 Always test the temperature out before putting your feet or hands to avoid
burns due to high heat.
 Do not continue with the hand spa treatment if there are signs of infection.
 Spa treatment is not advisable for persons with poor blood circulation.

Are you still there, learners? Well, you got it right, if there are benefits of hand
treatment, there are also cautions to safeguard the health of the clients. Try to
answer this activity to internalize the concept.

 What’s In

Hello learners! Welcome to Module 2 in Beauty Care Nail Care.

Can you still recall the meaning of Spa Treatment? Indeed, previously, you
have learned that a spa in nail care is an improved form of the regular treatment of
manicure and pedicure and usually includes one of the following: paraffin dip, mask
and mud, or seaweed treatment. It is an effective and relaxing technique that
satisfies all the physical and psychological demands of the hand and feet.

What’s New

Yes! You’ve read it right. The spa is a level up service for people who want a
difference in their nail care experience, not just a plain manicure and pedicure.

Photo credit by Lucille Quiriado

What do you see in the picture above? It’s one of the equipment in performing
a hand spa treatment, a hand spa machine, or paraffin heater. In your previous
lesson, it is used to remove callous and dead cells of the hands or feet with the
heated and melted paraffin wax at an appropriate temperature and then applied to
the desired area.

Do you want to know more about the spa and the other types of hand
treatment? Then you have to read the next information to follow.

12
 What Is It

According to “The History of Spa’s” by Brown 2018, the word “SPA” is a short
form of Latin phrase “Salus per aquae” which means health through water. This
treatment has beneficial effects on the whole body and mind. A spa is a treatment for
hands and feet that eliminates dead skin, moisturizes skin; shapes, and treats
clients’ nails. A beautiful addition in spa manicures and pedicures is the calf and
lower arms long massage.
In this lesson, you will learn the different types of a spa in nail care.

A. Paraffin Wax Spa. This is a wonderful, rather a perfect treatment for dry,
rough skin, helping to reveal smooth skin underneath.
Procedure
1. Start with sanitizing the hands with soap and water.
2. Dip both hands and feet or apply the paraffin wax with paraffin brush
into the melted wax and remove. Allow the wax to cool completely and
set.
3. Peel off the cold set wax.
4. Wipe the hand and feet with a warm, moist towel and then massage
hands or feet with lotion.

B. Mud mask spa. A mud mask is similar to a face mask, but applied on hands or
feet. It helps to remove the dead skin and to relax sore feet and hands. It puts
life back into tired hands and feet. It softens calluses and neglected skin.
Procedure
1. Start with an exfoliation using a scrubbing cream.
2. Always moisturize the feet after exfoliation is completed
3. Apply mask made of clay on hands/feet

13
 4. Once it is dry, remove the mask from the hands or feet.
5. Rinse and dry it properly.

C. Salt and Sugar Spa. This spa exfoliates and moisturizes the skin and removes
dirt from hands and feet.
Procedure
1. Apply basic treatment of manicure and pedicure
2. Use salt or sugar with a moist hand to scrub the skin, instead of
using scrubbing cream.

D. Special Variants of Spa. These treatments range from a simple sea-salt

scrub, to skin peels and callus removal, masks, aromatherapy, flowers, and
fruit treatments.
1. Stone spa. This type of pedicure involves oil being massaged into
the feet and lower legs with hot stones.

2. Peaches and Cream Spa. You could use a peach-scented candle

or diffuser in the pedicure area. Milk or any cream will help exfoliate
the skin and sliced peaches in the bath will make the client feel very
relaxed.

3. Flower Petal Float Spa. Soak the hands and feet in a basin filled
with rose petals, valued for their moisturizing and mood-elevating
benefits. The client relaxes as the petals are bathed over the
hands/feet with lotion, massaged into the muscles for a fragrant
sensation.

4. Champagne or Wine Spa. This is a regular pedicure usually

featuring a grapeseed scrub, grape mask peel, and finished off with
grapeseed oil or moisturizing massage.

5. Athletic Spa. This spa is quite similar to a regular pedicure for either
gender. It contains either a clear polish or toenail buffing. Usually,
the fragrant used will be more freshening, such as peppermint,
cucumber, or eucalyptus.

6. Chocolate Spa. A spa that may include a chocolate foot soak,

chocolate foot Mask, or chocolate moisturizing lotion.

7. Margarita Spa. It is a normal spa that includes a salt scrub and

soaking water with fresh limes. It may also include lime-based
massage oil and moisturizer.
8. Ice Cream Spa. A spa where a “bath ball”, which looks like a scoop
of ice cream, is chosen. The soak is followed by a foot scrub topped

14
 with whipped moisturizing lotion. Red nail polish simulates the ice
cream’s cherry.
