I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'looking after the hands' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'person i heal by' is the wordplay.
'person' becomes 'man' (man is a kind of person).
'heal' becomes 'cure' (synonyms).
'by' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'man'+'i'+'cure'='MANICURE'

Can you help me to learn more?
