Napa Massage & Bodycare - Experience true Napa style in the heart of downtown. While most of our clients live and work in this extraordinary place, the visitors who find us are delighted by the spa alternative we provide. Our atmosphere is laid-back and wellness-driven, with incredibly flexible hours. We’re the perfect fit for down-to-earth people who value personalized attention and thoughtful details. That’s why we remain the locals’ favorite with the ideal visitors’ location. In winery terms, we’re a boutique: Producing a premium product available in limited quantities. We are not a massage-mill and we have room for only 5-7 guests at a time. Occasionally, spa parties can be developed for special groups that are up to twice that size. Our focus is on individual attention not high volume. Our unique location in a 1915 Craftsman-style house was originally home to Dr. Welti, a prominent local physician nearly 100 years ago. Today, healing work continues. We even named our signature service the Welti Wellness Massage and you can only get it here. Our skin and nail treatments are exceptional, too. Formerly Amanda's; now Napa Massage & Bodycare--same ownership since 1999.

Introduction to Manicures

A manicure is a cosmetic beauty treatment for the fingernails and hands enjoyed by both sexes. A manicure can treat just the hands, just the nails, or both. A standard manicure usually includes filing and shaping of the nails and the application of polish. Some specialty manicures, such as the French Manicure, may also be offered. Treatments for hands usually include soaking in a softening substance and application of hand lotion. A similar treatment performed on the feet is a pedicure. The word "manicure" comes from the Latin manus, meaning "hand," and cura meaning "care".

Various services for nails can be provided, such as the application of artificial nails such as nail tips, acrylics and artificial nail gels. A manicurist can also apply treatments to real nails, such as filing, polishing, and painting. Fancier manicures include painting pictures or designs on the nails or applying small decals or imitation jewels.
In many areas, manicurists are regulated and must be licensed. Because the skin is being manipulated and sometimes trimmed, and because there is a risk of infection when tools are used on multiple people, proper sanitation is critical.

The History of Manicure:
Believe it or not, people have been manicuring their nails for more than 4,000 years. In southern Babylonia, noblemen used solid gold tools to give themselves manicures and pedicures. The use of fingernail polish can be traced back even further. Originating in China in 3,000 BC, nail color indicated one's social status -- according to a Ming dynasty manuscript, royal fingernails were painted black and red. The Egyptians also colored their nails, using red to show the highest social class. It is said that Cleopatra's nails were painted a deep red, whereas Queen Nefertiti went with a flashier ruby shade. In ancient Egypt and Rome, military commanders also painted their nails to match their lips before they went off to battle.
