Pedicures are more than a splash of color — at Gateway Nails Spa they’re a full sensory reset. Whether you’re seeking relaxation after a long week, prepping for a special event, or caring for tired feet, our pedicures combine professional foot care, hygienic protocols, and restorative treatments to keep your feet healthy and beautiful.
What Makes a Gateway Nails Spa Pedicure Different?
At Gateway Nails Spa we blend technical skill with a comforting environment. Our licensed technicians begin with a thorough consultation, followed by a soak and gentle exfoliation to remove dead skin. Cuticle care, nail shaping, and a moisturizing treatment are standard; many of our pedicures finish with a relaxing massage that improves circulation and leaves you walking lighter. For busy clients, we offer express pedicures and deluxe spa pedicures with hot stone massage or paraffin treatments.
Professional Hygiene & Safety
Safety matters. Our tools are sterilized between uses, disposable liners are used in pedicure basins when appropriate, and we follow strict sanitation procedures to protect you and our team. If you prefer, request a single-use file or a fully disposable tool kit for extra reassurance.
Pedicure Options for Every Need
- Express Pedicure — Quick maintenance and polish.

Benefits of Regular Pedicures
Regular pedicures do more than look nice — they support foot health. Trimming nails properly reduces risk of ingrown nails and infections; removing calluses helps redistribute pressure when you walk; moisturizing treatments prevent cracks that can become painful or, in some cases, infected. Many clients report that regular pedicures ease the ache of standing jobs and improve mobility for active lifestyles.
How to Choose the Right Pedicure at Gateway Nails Spa
Think about your goals: relaxation, maintenance, or repair. If you have chronic foot pain, diabetes, or circulation issues, mention this during booking so we can match you with an experienced technician or suggest a podiatry referral. For a long-lasting finish, opt for gel polish or a shellac topcoat — it holds up well for weeks. Want a natural look? Try a buff and clear finish for healthy shine without polish.
At-Home Maintenance Tips Between Pedicures
To extend results between visits, keep a daily routine: soak feet briefly, exfoliate once a week, apply a foot cream nightly, and wear breathable shoes and moisture-wicking socks. If you exercise frequently, use an antifungal powder if you’re prone to athlete’s foot. For more foot-health reading, the American Podiatric Medical Association offers practical tips. (apma.org).
