 LESSON
1 PERFORM HAND SPA

LEARNING CONCEPT

BENEFITS OF HAND SPA TREATMENT

With all the worries and stress from our daily lives we need some time
to ourselves to relax and unwind and release all the stress and tension from
the week.
Take a look at your hands. Our hands take a lot of abuse. Exposed to
harsh detergents, hot water, sun and wind on a daily basis, sensitive skin can
become dry, red and creased- all signs of premature aging. Nails are part of
the package, and continuous pounding on a keyboard or one of the other
million ways we use our digits each day can leave nails in rough shape. If so,
then there is a need for you to have regular hand care maintenance.

Below are the following beneficial effects of hand spa:

▪ Relaxes fingers, wrist and hand muscles.

▪ Helps loosen tight hand muscles
▪ Reduces scar tissue and adhesion that cause decreased finger and
wrist mobility.

After knowing the beneficial effects of hand spa, it is very essential for
a manicurist to be aware of the different tools, supplies and equipment to be
used in giving hand spa treatment which can be an added service in manicure
or a separate treatment given at home or in the salon.

The next topic will give you an idea on how to use the following tools,
supplies and equipment needed in performing hand spa treatment.

HAND SPA TREATMENT

Before you proceed with the steps in hand spa treatment, there is a
need for you to have a background on how to give basic hand massage or
hand and arm massage techniques as these are also a part of the steps in
hand spa treatment.

Basic Hand and Arm Massage Techniques

The hands contain many acupressure and reflexology points which are
associated with the organs and certain parts of the body. Therefore hand
massage should be included with each manicure because it provide
significant health benefits.

Procedure in Hand Massage

1. Hold the client’s hand in your hand. Place a

dab of lotion on the back of the client’s hand
and spread it to the fingers and wrist.

2. Hold the client’s hand firmly. Bend the hand

slowly with a forward and backward movement
limber the wrist. Repeat three times.

12
 3. Grasp each finger. Gently bend each finger,
one at a time, to limber the top of the hand and
finger joints. As the fingers and thumb are bent,
slide your thumb down toward the fingertips.

4. With the client’s elbow resting on the table, hold

the hand upright. Massage the palm of the hands
with the cushions of your thumbs, using a circular
movement in alternate directions. This movement
will completely relax the client’s hand.

5. Rest client’s arm on the table. Grasp each

finger at the base, and rotate it gently in large
circles, ending with a gentle squeeze of the
fingertips. Repeat three times.

6. Hold the client’s hand. Massage the wrist, then

top of the hand with a circular movement. Slide
back and with both hands wring wrist in opposite
direction three times.

7. Finish massage by tapering each finger.

Beginning at the base of each finger, rotate,
pause, and squeeze with gentle pressure. Then,
pull lightly with pressure until tip is reached.
Repeat three times

Procedure in Hand and Arm Massage

1. Complete hand massage.

13
 2. Palm turned downward on the table. Massage
the arm from wrist to elbow, using a slow,
circular motion in alternate directions. Repeat
three times. Palm upward and repeat the same
movements three times.

3. Massage the under part of the arm to the

elbow, using fingers of each hand in alternate
crosswise directions. Repeat three times.

4. Massage the top of the arm from wrist to

elbow. Apply thumbs in opposite directions with
squeezing motion. Repeat three times.

5.Cup elbow joint in your hand. Massage elbow

with circular motion. Repeat three times.

6. Stroke the arm firmly in opposite directions, from

the elbow to wrist. Finally, stroke each finger,
ending with a gentle squeeze of the fingertips.

7. Repeat steps 1-6 on the other arm.

8. Repeat steps 1-7 on the other hand.

One of the relaxing parts of hand spa is massage. After you

familiarized yourself with the basic steps in hand and arm massage, let us find
out if you can apply what you have learned in massage by doing the series of
activities ahead of you.

 Steps in Giving Hand Spa Treatment

Procedure Preparation
1. Prepare and use necessary tools
and supplies/materials
2. Wash client's hand with lukewarm
water and soap, and towel-dry
before and after scrubbing.
3. Apply appropriate lotion.

of the hardened paraffin becomes
easier.
4. Determine and test appropriate
temperature for heat tolerance of
client.

Note: Touch the edge of your palm

to the melted paraffin to test that the
temperature is comfortable for you.
5. Soak hands for 4 seconds for 3
consecutive times in wax and
wrap with plastic gloves and
mittens.
6. Allow the paraffin to remain in
place for 10 to 15 minutes.
7. Remove wax from hands
according to manufacturer's
instructions.
8. Apply hand softening product and
massage according to prescribed
procedure.

 POST - HAND SPA ACTIVITY
Storing and Sanitation Techniques

Take a look at the things around you. Even though these things may
look clean in your eyes but what you do not know is that there is still presence
of contaminants.
Contaminant is any substance that causes contamination. Salon
professional must always ensure safety and sanitation in the salon to prevent
and control infections and contagious diseases although it is very impossible
to keep the salon free from all contamination.
There is still a solution to prevent and control infections or contagious
diseases in the salon and that is through decontamination. Decontamination is
removing pathogens and other substances from tools or surfaces.
There are three levels of decontamination and these are sterilization,
sanitation and disinfection.
Sterilization is the process of making an object germ-free by the
destruction of all kinds of bacteria and it is also the highest level of
decontamination. Sterilization is impossible since you cannot sterilize all the
tools and equipment used in the salon.
Sanitation means significantly reducing the number of pathogens found
on a surface and is also considered as the lowest level of decontamination. Why
is sanitation considered as the lowest level of decontamination? Example is the
hair in a comb. Hair is the contaminant in the comb. How do you apply sanitation
here? All you have to do is to remove the hair from the comb and it is as easy as
that. That is why sanitation is the lowest level of decontamination.
Disinfection is the second level of decontamination next to
sterilization. Disinfection is very much applicable in the salon since
sterilization is not practical and sanitation alone is not enough. Disinfection is
the use of disinfectant and antiseptic.
Disinfectant is any substance or chemicals used to destroy bacteria
but is not safe to use on skin while antiseptic is an agent that prevents the
multiplication of bacteria. Since it is milder than disinfectant. It can be used
directly on the skin.
Any of these levels of decontamination must always be a part of every
nail care services and should be done before and after giving nail services to
your client. Proper waste disposal and proper handling and use of chemicals
are also of great importance when it comes to post-service activity.

19
 SERVICE MAINTENANCE PROGRAM

Now, after performing the hand spa treatment to your client, it is time
for you to do the following steps:
1. Dispose waste products including used wax according to occupational
health and safety rules and regulations.
2. Sanitize and store tools, supplies and equipment.
3. Clean and sanitize work station for the next treatment activity.

GOOD HOUSEKEEPING SYSTEM (5’S)

Proper Waste Disposal refers to the process in keeping waste

materials or products in the proper place to avoid contamination.
Below are the steps in handling waste materials or products.

The 5’s of Good Housekeeping

1. Seiri (Sort)
• TIDINESS, ORGANIZATION
• Taking out and disposing of unnecessary items
• Items that are not needed are thrown away or disposed
2. Seiton (Systematize)
• ORDERLINESS

the easiest and most efficient access
• Arrange / Organize necessary items in good condition
• Assign a place for everything for easy access and returning of
the equipment, tools and even documents.
3. Seiso (Sweep)
• CLEANLINESS
• Cleaning even if things are not dirty. Regular cleaning prevents
things from getting too dirty that it would be difficult to make it clean
• Indicates the need to keep the work place clean.
4. Seiketsu (Standardize)
• STANDARDS

• It is a good discipline to leave the workplace cleaner

Tips and Warnings:

Tips in Preparing a Housekeeping Standard Checklist
• Keep it simple – one page checklist
