About greentoes North Nail Salon, Massage and Day Spa

Greentoes North Nail Salon, Massage & Day Spa is an eco-chic nail salon and day spa serving Northwest Tucson and nearby communities. The North location offers manicures, pedicures, massage therapy, facials, dermaplaning, waxing, body scrubs, and contrast therapy in a setting shaped by the Greentoes philosophy of caring for people, themselves, and the planet. It is accessible from areas including the Catalina Foothills, Oro Valley, Flowing Wells, Midtown, and Casas Adobes.

Greentoes began with a vision from Christina Rossetti Thompson, a native Tucsonan and longtime teacher. In December 2011, she had a dream about slowing down and creating a place where she and others could find "Our Calm." The dream included the studio's name and its approach to the business. With the support of her husband, Victor Thompson, Christina opened Greentoes for business in October 2012. Victor took over the business shortly afterward when Christina, who had been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2000, became too ill to continue operating it. A Tucson native who attended Canyon Del Oro High School and the University of Arizona, Victor brought experience from the health and fitness industry, including sales, marketing, and management, to his role as owner.

At Greentoes North, nail services are offered in four levels. The express manicure or pedicure includes a hand and arm massage, while the essential service adds a tonic bath with a chosen scent. The signature service includes additional skin care for the hands and a mini lacquer to take home. The Slow Beauty service adds elements of meditation and is designed as the most sensory-focused option. Across the spa, Greentoes uses natural and organic products, including nail lacquers selected without chemicals that many people prefer to avoid. The business also offers organic skincare products for purchase.

Facials are designed around concerns such as brightening, calming, clarifying, and firming, with natural ingredients including licorice root, chamomile, tea tree, cucumber, antioxidant berries, coconut water, and green apple stem cells. Dermaplaning removes dead surface skin cells without a scalpel and can be paired with a Power Peel using organic enzymes and natural moisturizers. Waxing services include Brazilian, leg, underarm, eyebrow, back, shoulder, and abdomen waxing, and are available to people of all genders and ages. For guests new to waxing, the spa provides guidance about the process and preparation.

The massage menu includes Swedish and deep tissue massage, prenatal massage for clients whose doctors have approved it, and massage intended to support chronic pain and injury management. The North location also has a private Contrast Therapy Suite with red light therapy, a sauna, a cold plunge, and a private bathroom with an attached shower. Guests may use one treatment or combine them, and the suite can be reserved for a couple's experience. Appointments can also be made for red light therapy alone. Greentoes North welcomes visitors by appointment and provides access to the spa's full range of services in the North Tucson area.
