Keratin: The Building Block of Beauty

  • Keratin, a protein akin to that found in hair, forms the sturdy foundation of your nails.

  • This structural component keeps nails resilient and strong, safeguarding them against external pressures and maintaining their integrity.

Nail Matrix: The Birthplace of Beauty

  • Nestled beneath the cuticle, the nail matrix is the hub of nail growth and development.

  • Proper care for this crucial area is paramount for nurturing healthy nails and supporting their continuous growth.

Nail Plate: The Visible Veil of Elegance

  • Comprised of various layers of keratin, the nail plate is the part of your nail that catches the eye.

  • Understanding how to maintain its health and structure is essential for ensuring your nails remain robust and vibrant.

Cuticle: The Gatekeeper of Health

  • Acting as a protective barrier, the cuticle shields the nail matrix from harmful invaders, preserving its well-being.

  • By keeping this region intact and healthy, you can prevent infections and maintain overall nail health effectively.

Nurturing Your Nails from the Inside Out

At Athira Spa, we advocate for holistic wellness that encompasses both external care and internal well-being. It's not just about what you do on the surface; it's about nurturing your nails from within.

Balanced Diet: Fuel for Growth

  • Incorporating protein, vitamins, and minerals like biotin and iron into your diet is essential for supporting healthy nail growth.

  • By feeding your body the nutrients it needs, you're laying the foundation for strong, beautiful nails to flourish.

  • Drinking ample water daily can work wonders for keeping your nails strong and resilient.

Minimising Stress: A Secret Ingredient

  • Engaging in relaxation practices like yoga or meditation can help alleviate stress and promote healthy nail growth.
