Lesson 4

Pre-Hand Spa Treatment, Hand and Arm Massage Techniques

Hand spa helps remove dead cells and callous. Callous appear on hands

because of the constant friction of the skin to the materials they use. Hand spa is a

treatment performed by professionally trained staff. This treatment is done to

replenish, restore and rejuvenate naturally tired hands.

While an arm massage aims to reduce muscle tightness by increasing muscle

elasticity and flexibility and loosening scar tissue. An arm massage encourages an

increase in blood flow. An increase in blood flow increases the temperature of

muscles. An increase in muscle temperature allows muscle to stretch and relax.

What is It

According to Maier, leaf tv article., 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. When funds are low, or if

you would simply prefer to spend your hard-earned money somewhere other than at

a pricey salon, you can make a complete hand spa treatment at home instead.

Since nowadays we are facing this Covid 19 crisis it is hard for us to go to the

salon for pampering yourself this will help solve your problem and alternative you

need to learn and apply this learning at home.

At this time, a great chance to help the members of the family to maintain the

beauty of their hands by having a hand spa treatment and arm massage.

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

yourself with the different tools, materials, and equipment, let us find out if you can

apply what you have learned in using those tools and the basic steps on hand and

arm massage by doing the series of activities ahead of you.

The next topic will give you an idea of how pre-hand spa treatment and arm

massage techniques will be done.
