Beauty & Spas in Manteca

Licensed massage therapist Renee Chester specializes in fostering a relaxing atmosphere, treating clients to massages that help ease their minds and manage the pain of sore or tired muscles. Customizing each appointment to suit her individual clients' needs, Renee combines basic techniques with a variety of additional treatments, from hydrotherapy soaks that envelop the entire body to salt and sugar scrubs that restore its natural deliciousness. She also helps skin look healthy and radiant with cosmetic services, such as a combination of an exfoliating body polish and an airbrush tan that lasts for up to 10 days.

Terry Hunter, SCMT, the owner of Rejuvenation Spa and Wellness Center, caters his massages to the needs to the client in front of him. A diverse roster of 10 massage modalities allows Hunter to pull from a wide range of techniques—the rolling and kneading of Swedish massage helps ease stress from the body, whereas shiatsu massage focuses on pressure points and the body's flow of energy. Rejuvenation also offers ladies' night out packages, combining the therapeutic massages with facials, mani-pedis, and waxing.

Elegant Image Skin & Laser Spa brings together an eclectic team of cosmetic-nurse specialists, stylists, nail techs, and certified massage therapists to pamper and prettify patrons with a full menu of spa and salon services under one roof. Nurse-administered beauty injections such as Botox and fillers aim to smooth out fine lines, and spa facials and microdermabrasion treatments aim to imbue skin with the elasticity of a spandex-wearing gummy bear. Massage therapists coax out tension with soothing Swedish or deep-tissue strokes, and techs cheer up extremities with manicures, pedicures, and spot-on impressions of Rodney Dangerfield's toes. In the full-service hair salon, stylists spritz patrons' topknots with professional products from brands such as Paul Mitchell and Redken as they update outmoded ‘dos into chic looks.

Licensed aesthetician and manicurist Sylvia Chavez boosts the health and appearance of skin with facials customized to meet each client's specific needs. She can tailor skincare to men, women, and teens, treating a wide variety of skin types, from oily to dry to potato. With waxing services, Chavez transforms sparse or bushy brows into perfectly arched designs to complement individual face shapes. She also pampers hands and feet with natural nail services and attacks acne or wrinkles with chemical peels.

The stylists at Vanity Hair Salon always sit down with clients for a friendly chat before crafting new hairdos. While they ask probing questions and listen intently to responses, they comb through hair and attune to each strand's unique resonant frequency. With this knowledge, they skillfully snip away dead ends and craft flattering styles as hairs fall to the ground like the leaves of a tree that’s been pushed out an airplane. When stylists aren't pruning and embellishing mops, they nourish them with conditioning treatments and extract unwanted hair with warm wax.
