Most people are unaware of the health risks of getting a tattoo.

growing market

1. TATTOO DETOX Concerns are growing about the safety of tattoo inks, which – in spite of the fact they’re injected into the body – are not yet governed by laws relating to toxicity. Up to 20 per cent of adults in some Western nations are tattooed, with this rising to 35 per cent in the under-30s. According to a recent report from the European Chemicals Agency (ECA), tattoo ink is thought likely to have a carcinogenic or mutagenic impact, as well as being

implicated in reproductive disease, with red ink being the colour most likely to cause the biggest issues, according to ECA. We think health-conscious consumers with tattoos will be increasingly interested in tattoo removal, coupled with chelation therapy to filter heavy metals from their body. Spas are ideally placed to introduce both services, with healing and recuperation included, to create a full-service tattoo-removal programme. www.spahandbook.com

2. Spa dentistry Dentistry will undergo a revolution in the next 50 years, with 3D-printed tooth implants and stem-cell regeneration making existing procedures redundant. These changes will create opportunities for spas to widen wellbeing services to include dental treatment, by investing in next-generation equipment and creating a role for holistic spa dentists. It will be a great fit: a spa is the ideal setting in which to undergo hi-tech dental procedures, given the relaxing environments and exceptional levels of service. These high-value dental treatments will create powerful additional revenue streams for spas from compact and affordable real estate footprints. Dental health is an important part of wellbeing. Research shows poor dentistry contributes to a range of issues, including heart disease and autoimmune disorders, making effective interventions important for good health â&#x20AC;&#x201C; while the cosmetic value of beautiful teeth has a powerful effect on self esteem and confidence. We expect foresighted spa operators to make investments in dentistry part of their business development planning, and to begin to position for synergystic dental partnerships and acquisitions to take advantage of the radical changes that will reshape the market for essential and cosmetic dentistry in the coming decades.

Spas will develop a highly lucrative new area of business by moving into high-tech dentistry

trends: spa foresight™ 2017 - 2018 strategies for coping

3. Grief Just as death is a taboo subject for many, so the challenge of supporting people who are grieving is something that many find difficult to discuss. This creates situations where people can be grieving, and friends, colleagues and family are not equipped to offer support. They say nothing, for fear of saying the wrong thing and making matters worse. Spas are well-placed to offer a sanctuary where grief can be expressed and both the grieving and their supporters can be taught strategies for healing. We expect life-changing interventions such as this to become part of the industry’s remit.

infobesity

4. simplicity In an always-on, increasingly complex world, simplicity is the new luxury. More information is available to teenagers today than was available to the US president 20 years ago – and that overload is leading to ‘infobesity.’ Brain-drained consumers are tired of making decisions, and simplifying choices is key to making guests feel truly relaxed. This could translate to simpler spa menus, or consultations that point guests to treatments – no decision-making required. Spas have long provided calm, distraction-free spaces; guests will be looking for a less-is-more sensibility in other areas. 16

healing

5. Therapy animals Animal interactions have been shown to have positive effects on people’s physical health – lowering blood pressure, increasing endorphin levels, and decreasing the physical perception of pain. They’ve also been shown to positively affect mental health by decreasing anxiety, feelings of isolation and loneliness. As spas seek ways to offer services in the area of mental wellbeing, we expect to see more use of therapy animals.

Spas such as Miraval, with its equine programme, are already using therapy animals to help guests gain greater self-awareness and experience personal growth. We think more spas – especially those with plenty of open space – could implement animal therapy programmes, and in the process, help bring joy and calm to their guests. And the PR angle is also powerful – who could resist the Instagrammable cuteness? www.spahandbook.com

trends: spa foresight™ 2016

New research is confirming the health benefits of extreme cold immersion to a wide range of metabolic processes

ice age

6. extreme bathing With the growing popularity of programmes like the Wim Hof Method, which advocates extreme cold exposure and advanced breathing techniques for health and resilience, we predict more consumers will warm to the idea of extreme cold if the health benefits are clearly explained. Research shows that extreme cold exposure has a wide range of important effects, including speeding up metabolism by stimulating the creation of brown fat, www.spahandbook.com

reducing inflammation and strengthening the immune system. It’s also been shown to improve quality of sleep, boost the production of feel-good endorphins and have beneficial effects on the treatment of anxiety, depression and PTSD. When it comes to implementation, extreme bathing services need to be carefully controlled to ensure safety, and we expect some spas to introduce medically supervised, Wim Hof Method

programmes, with ice bathing pools and follow-up faciltiies for the “re-warming” phase of the treatment. Other extreme bathing trends include geothermal saunas that pipe hot steam from the earth’s core, beach spas where holes are dug in the sand to create pools that fill with thermal water from natural springs and – in tune with the trend for forest bathing – woodland streams that are dammed to create bathing pools. spa business HANDBOOK 2017 - 2018

trends: spa foresight™ 2017 - 2018 keeping the balance

7. skin microbiome The microbiome of the gut may have been getting all the attention from consumers, but the skin microbiome has its own unique combination of microorganisms that need to be kept in balance on a daily basis as well. Harsh cleansers, antibacterial soap, and a general modern obsession with being clean can get things out of balance, leading to skin conditions ranging from acne to eczema and psoriasis, as well as weakening the wider immune system. As consumers begin to understand the larger implications of this, expect to see more probiotic treatments, cleansers and creams, and look to incorporate them in your spa menu.

life skills

8. resilience We’re forecasting an increasing interest in resilience and stoicism as people of all ages seek better ways to live and cope with the demands of life. Services in this area will include education, counselling and lifestyle interventions such as balanced exercise regimes that give an outlet for anxieties and relieve stress. Resilience will be especially important to Gen Z, many of whom are turning out to be troubled and fragile, as a result of being over-exposed to social media and adult content during their formative years – and with high levels of self harm and mental health issues. 18

spa business HANDBOOK 2017 - 2018

Spa operators will find an abundance of opportunity as the market goes mainstream

the market broadens

9. wellness communities Back in 2009, Spa Foresight™ predicted that wellness real estate would emerge as a significant economic force, with the addition of spa and wellbeing services to residential creating a value margin that would attract a new generation of property developers and investors. We’ve seen a global rise in high-end wellness communities since, and now we expect the concept to go mainstream, with investors attracted by the 30 per cent uplift.

People living in these developments self-identify as being focused on their own wellbeing to varying degrees (see our report, pages 98-110) and just as spas are designed to attract consumers with different preferences and levels of affluence, so wellness communities will be developed to meet the needs of each, creating opportuities for spa brands at every level of the market to partner with developers on wellness community developments. www.spahandbook.com

mapping thermal water

photo: shutterstock/anyaZhe

10. mfdna Just as we have our own unique DNA, so natural thermal water has its own unique microfloral DNA – or mfDNA – that can be analysed and correlated to the health properties of waters from specific locations. Now, a group of scientists, led by Dr Marc Cohen of RMIT University in Australia and Dr Vincenzo Romano Spica of the University of Rome, are working to map mfDNA across the world – and create a biofingerprint for each water source. The biofingerprint will include details on the physical, chemical and biological makeup of the water. It has implications for practical things like hygiene, safety and quality, as well as management, but can also be used in marketing. By characterising hot springs water and identifying the benefits and best uses for each kind, Dr Spica hopes to help consumers find the best water for the treatment they need, and to increase personalisation. He also hopes waters with different properties can eventually be named and marketed in the same way that wines are – creating the equivalent of champagne, Burgundy or Brunello spa waters, each unique in its particular qualities.

11. GLOBAL ONSEN

photo: shutterstock/wavebreakmedia

In 2015, nearly 20 million tourists travelled to Japan; the government hopes to double this by 2020. Japan is hosting the 2019 Rugby World Cup and the 2020 Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics, which has brought massive hotel development. This will mean an exposure to Japanese culture that will likely have a ripple effect throughout the world – including the Japanese onsen, or hot springs baths, which many of those new tourists will be exposed to for the first time. We anticipate seeing more onsen-like features in spa settings as both consumers and operators discover the peacefulness of Japanese bathing and adapt it to their own cultures. Quiet sounds – such as whispering or crinkling paper – can trigger an ASMR response

A new profession

12. cuddling We’re noticing a growing number of organisations training people to become professional cuddlers. The approach is scientific and based on the power of touch. The movement is a growing one. The aim is to offer a positive and platonic embrace, which releases oxytocin and leaves people feeling nurtured and connected. Cuddling sessions can be one-on-one with a professional therapist, or in groups with relaxation and breathing exercises. We expect spas to explore the introduction of cuddling as a service. 20

spa business HANDBOOK 2017 - 2018

that tingling feeling

13. asmr Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response – or ASMR – is described as a pleasurable tingling that begins at the top of the head and radiates down the spine, and can be triggered by quiet sounds such as whispering, crinkling paper or the tinkling of wind chimes, or by gentle, light touches like hair brushing or skin stroking. People are increasingly seeking out ASMR experiences, and YouTube is full of ASMR videos that use sound triggers. Whisperlodge Spa in New York City opened this year, where therapists blindfold guests and whisper in their ears, touch them gently with makeup brushes, crinkle tissue paper near their heads or

even draw with charcoal alongside them to create that pleasant, tingly feeling. It’s all very quiet and intimate; trust of (and comfort with) a therapist is imperative. Feeling ASMR is said to be relaxing, de-stressing, and to lead to better sleep. We’ve seen elements of ASMR being used in traditional spa environments – Comfort Zone’s sleep therapy treatment uses the gentle touch of brushes, for example – but more ASMR triggers could be brought into spas, especially as public perception and knowledge of it increases. If the popularity of YouTube videos is any indication of interest, get ready: we found one that had 2.6m views its first week. www.spahandbook.com

Tour de France winner Chris Froome has adopted a ketogenic diet under the supervision of sport scientist James Morton

fitness trend

14. Ketogenic exercise Most people burn carbohydrates as fuel when exercising, but there’s an increasing interest in re-training the body to burn fat, which is a less limited fuel source. The added advantage is that teaching the body to burn fat instead of carbohydrates leads to weight loss, which can give good outcomes if carefully supervised by expert dieticians. The body can only store 1,600-2,000 calories from carbohydrates in the www.spahandbook.com

muscles, blood and liver, meaning exercisers who are instead fuelled by energy from fat stores – ketones – can go longer with the right training. Exercise that is fuelled by ketones is an area of great interest to competitive sports people, some of whom have trained their bodies to achieve feats of great endurance on very small quantities of fat. We expect interest in ketogenic exercise to grow among the general population as

knowledge of these training techniques and dietary protocols trickles down from the elite athlete level to the mainstream. This will create opportunities for spas to offer ketogenic conversion training and associated dietary advice to guests. The spa is an appropriate environment in which to deliver this transformation, as it needs to be done carefully, given the implications for toxicity in the body and the fact that vital pH levels can be affected. spa business HANDBOOK 2017 - 2018

trends: spa foresight™ 2017 - 2018 ageing

15. menopause

photo: shutterstock/Andrey_Popov

With their distinctive wellbeing needs, menopausal women represent a powerful consumer group in need of wellness interventions, and we expect menopause-related services to become more widespread in the spa and wellness market, with treatments and packages appearing on spa menus. Lifestyle change can massively ease or eliminate menopause symptoms, so there is much the spa and wellness industry can do with existing resources to support women going through this phase of their lives. Pelvic floor strengthening workouts, hormone rebalancing, natural HRT, sleep therapy and coaching in resilience are all services that would resonate.

new service

16. Body forensics Achiving optimum health and wellbeing demands a 360-degree understanding of each person’s individual body type and issues. Given all aspects of health are interrelated and interdependent, we see a role for spas to sit at the heart of a body forensics service, based on accurate diagnostics and ongoing preventative lifestyle prescription. The service would involve a cross-disciplinary team acting with a holistic brief – at a level not yet achieved by any spa operator – and would prescribe lifestyle advice and interventions. 22

Personal pollution sensors will tell people when to leave a place or building

invisible threat

17. personal pollution sensors More than 92 per cent of the world’s population is breathing air that fails basic health standards, according to a recently launched Air Quality Model from the World Health Organization. Indoor air is 14 times more toxic than outdoor. Plastic particles are also becoming a serious health issue, with water and air increasingly polluted and nanoparticles of plastic making their way into the food chain, and from there, into our bodies.

We predict that soon, each of us will wear a personal pollution sensor, which will go off when we enter an area or a building with high levels of toxins. We expect spa and wellness operators to install air and water filtering systems to make their facilities havens from pollution. Those who follow this route will find it’s a marketable driver for business – and those who don’t will risk consumers turning away from their operation. www.spahandbook.com

Nootropics enhance cognitive ability and give spa operators the opportunity to offer customised prescriptions

brain food

18. nootropics Nootropics – a broadly defined group of substances that enhance cognitive capacity – are getting attention from people in business and academia. Nootropics can improve everything from mental focus to creativity and memory. Things like caffeine and cocaine fall into this category, but we’re interested in the gentler, more natural (legal) varieties, which can offer increased brain power without causing negative side effects. www.spahandbook.com

Nootropics have been used for centuries in traditional Chinese medicine and ayurveda, and consumer awareness is now growing in the West. We see a role for spas to offer nootropics as part of a brain-enhancement programme, with the spa acting as a trusted partner to offer quality ingredients with proven effects. Spas that can create personalised programmes with a focus on individualised needs can take it a step further.

Six Senses is already working on a project that will use natural nootropics combined with a programme of breathing exercises, mindfulness and diet to focus on brain health and enhancement. We predict nootropics will make their way into spa programming on many levels – from full-on brain enhancing programmes to supplements used during treatments – as consumer interest increases in this area of mind health. spa business HANDBOOK 2017 - 2018

We recommend developers and operators looking for future growth should be turning their longer-term ambitions towards the Stans – the central Asian nations of Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan, Takistan, Kazakhstan and particularly Uzbekistan. Formed as republics under Stalin’s rule, these nations – with their wild and beautiful scenery, exotic culture and incredible architecture – gained independence 20 years ago and are now forging their own identities. Oil-rich Uzbekistan has the secondfastest-growing economy in the world – projected at 7.6 per cent – as a result of rising oil prices, robust local growth and good relationships with its neighbours. The country has a good climate range, and with Tokyo and Paris within an eight-hour flight, is well-positioned for major population centres. We think the Stans will catch people’s imagination when it comes to wellness travel, and are tipping them for growth.

Nose to toe massage: a new modality 24

spa business HANDBOOK 2017 - 2018

Most massage protocols section the body into segments and work on these in isolation and in sequence, with no element of the treatment uniting the whole. We see an opportunity to introduce a whole range of new holistic massage methodologies, based on fascial release, which treat the body as a whole, and follow the entire length of the fascia. The head to toe massage, for example, would release the fascia down the entire

length of the body, while working on the muscles in a smooth and continuous action. It would start at the eyebrows and extend over the top the head, down the back and the legs, under the feet and back over the tips of the toes. The treatment would be interactive, using neuromuscular release techniques, and ‘clench and release’ to unlock adhesions and rebalance the body. Front and sides would be addressed in a similar way. www.spahandbook.com

The ‘fantasy-like’ Doha Mondrian will include a 1,950sq m spa managed by ESPA

Mondrian Doha Doha, Qatar Opening: Q3 2017 The famous Middle Eastern folk tales of One Thousand and One Nights are the inspiration behind the lavish dome-topped Mondrian Doha, set to open in Q3. Local practice South West Architecture and Dutch interior designer Marcel Wanders have collaborated to create the “fantasy-like” Doha Mondrian for hotel operator sbe, including its spa. ESPA will manage the 1,950sq m (209,89sq ft) spa – its first in Qatar – offering separate spas for men and women, 12 treatment rooms, a heat experience garden and a Turkish hammam. All guests will enter through a pure white reception area, before embarking to their gender-specific areas.

The female spa creates the illusion of a secret garden: feminine, soft, warm tones and curved lines have been used throughout, with golden and sparkling accents to create a luxurious, peaceful space. With open, white spaces and five treatment rooms, there is also a multilevel heat experience garden including Swarovski crystal rain showers and a carved wooden Finnish sauna. The male spa features a masculine design that has been inspired by the urban souks of the region. The space is dominated by deep, monochrome tones and muted lighting with bold, geometric patterns and golden accents throughout. The Heat Experience Souk sits at the heart of the male spa and is based on Doha’s local bazaars, with facilities centred around the ‘fire and water’ fountain which guests can view from the muscle-warming heated daybeds. ■ http://lei.sr?a=P9U7A_B www.spahandbook.com

Industry insights (Africa)

Industry predictions International spa and wellness professionals, working in various industry sectors, give their views on the industry and report back on major trends Jane Kitchen, managing editor, Spa Business Handbook

“Many visitors are keen to experience what makes African spa and wellness facilities different” Dr Tanya Pergola, founder and trip leader, The Healing Safari

assage therapists in Africa were traditionally recruited from Europe or Thailand, but in recent years, high-quality massage training schools have opened in South Africa and in Nairobi, Kenya, so while European trainers are still brought in to share consumer trends and expectations, more Africans – mainly women – are training to be therapists. There are now some highly skilled native African therapists who combine traditional intuition and healing massage practices with Western techniques, such as Swedish massage. Safaris are big business and are becoming more linked with wellness. To enhance relaxation, many safari lodges have massage therapists in-house or on-call to provide treatments in guests’ rooms or outside, often overlooking majestic landscapes. By its nature, a safari is healing – the word is Swahili for ‘journey’. Spending the day following the rhythms of nature, immersed in the habitat of awe-inspiring wildlife, de-stresses people in an instant. 68

SPA BUSINESS HANDBOOK 2017 – 2018

In addition, a growing number of yoga instructors from around the world are organising their own groups to take on safari in sub-Saharan Africa, creating ‘yoga safaris’ that integrate a yoga retreat with a wildlife safari. This trend is sure to continue, and lodge and resort owners might consider adding space to their properties to accommodate the needs of yoga and meditation classes. Some African skincare companies use traditional ingredients like African potato, marula oil, shea butter and rooibos, and their spa treatments incorporate ancient African rituals. For example, spas that are located in coffee-growing zones often utilise ground coffee in their spa treatments; African red clay is used for its healing properties; and traditional medicinal plants can be used for poultices. These authentic, local elements are all very popular with visitors, many of whom are keen to experience what makes African spa and wellness facilities different. The key is to marry these traditional medicines and rituals with the www.spahandbook.com

expectations of the modern spa client, and to tailor products to the ‘softer’ skin type of Western travellers, who are generally not so used to being exposed to rough outdoor conditions. Businesses will succeed when they find ways to create products and treatments that are appropriate to the travelling client, without losing the essence and power of the traditional ingredients that make these treatments special and effective. www.spahandbook.com

Ancient healers are also becoming more involved with wellbeing. It takes time to develop relationships with them so they come to trust ‘outsiders’ enough to share their ancient healing arts. I act as a ‘connector,’ linking these healers with spa and wellness programmes. I believe that so much more can – and should – be done to nurture these healers so they can share their powerful ancient wisdom and traditions with an increasingly unwell world. SPA BUSINESS HANDBOOK 2017 – 2018

Industry insights (Australia)

“There is an opportunity to work alongside one of Australia’s great success stories” Neil Owen, director, Spa Vision

ellness tourism is a US$563bn industry and an integral component of the global wellness economy. But despite an annual growth rate of 6.8 per cent in wellness tourism, recent global political instability may have a negative impact on international visitors to many countries over the coming years. Australia, however, is well-positioned to buck the trend. Not only is the country regarded as a safe destination for international tourists, but the potential growth in domestic wellness tourism as a result of fewer Australians travelling overseas can be a catalyst for national development and growth. The wine industry is an ideal partner; the cities of Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney and Perth all have world-class wine regions within a few hours’ drive of large populations, and fantastic opportunities exist to develop wellness facilities and attract new tourists in these areas. The foundations are in place for wine and wellness to be a success. Chinese tourists, for example, are not only the leaders in wellness tourism trips globally, they also recently became the largest export market for Australian wine. Wine may often be the key driver for the guest visit; however, strategically, there is an opportunity to work alongside one of Australia’s great success stories and develop further an already iconic industry while simultaneously making a positive impact on people’s lifestyles. 70

Industry insights (Middle East)

■ The spa industry is growing in the Middle East, and the need for adequately trained and talented spa staff is increasingly important

“Spa communities are working together to support each other in an effort to spearhead collaboration and keep pace with changing market conditions”

Paul Hawco, director of Talise Spa operations, Talise Wellness, Jumeirah Group

he future is bright for the Middle East spa and wellness industry. The region holds some of the most luxurious and therapeutically designed facilities in the world, and hotel brands are positioning themselves within the wellness tourism industry. The UAE is fast becoming an authentic wellness destination, and the strength of the fitness, beauty, nutrition and spa markets in the region helps to underpin this growth. In response to this growth, spa communities have been working together to support each other in an effort to spearhead collaboration and keep pace with changing market conditions. We have an established network of spa professionals that meets regularly and collaborates on industry-related issues. In 2015, we came together to organise the first-ever Middle East 72

benchmarking system and report (see p 120) in partnership with Colliers International. The industry is outpacing the supply of trained professionals. Spa operators in the UAE identified recruitment (68 per cent), training (20 per cent) and turnover (12 per cent) as their top challenges. The region is responding with a diversified recruitment platform reaching new regions such as Spain, the UK, South Africa and Portugal. Larger spa operations have strong internal platforms that support continued growth and retention. With brand awareness and reputation remaining the driving forces behind why guests seek out a particular spa, and quality and consistency being the two main reasons for them to return, the need for adequately trained and talented spa staff in the Middle East is becoming increasingly important. www.spahandbook.com

Industry insights (Japan)

“Japan has relatively low income differences, but people are beginning to realise that having a well life – or not – is one way to judge quality of life” Yoriko Soma, president, Conceptasia

apan’s population tree is ahead of any other developed country. Our ageing population problem is with us already, though Japan has long had the longest life expectancy for both women and men. All Japanese citizens are covered by health insurance which is provided by the government, but the health insurance schemes suffered a US$6bn deficit last year. The government is considering how to solve this problem One idea is to persuade people to care more about preventive medicine. This involves building a greater awareness of the importance of regular exercise, increased mental relaxation (taking more holidays), and regular health checks, as well as educating people about the problems caused by junk food. Japan has relatively low income differences between rich and poor, but the Japanese people are beginning to realise that having a well life – or not – is one way to judge quality of life.

The millennial generation is not as big a market as in the US, due to the demographic differences – the population of Japanese in their twenties declines by 1 per cent each year. Millennials are largely ignored by Japanese companies who sell wellness and beauty items or services. On the other hand, women in their 40s and 50s lead the beauty and wellness industry, spending lots of money to maintain their beauty. With an ageing society and a shrinking birthrate, the wellness and spa industry in Japan is focusing on wellness packages and tourism along with results-oriented services. In 2019, Tokyo will host the World Rugby tournament, while the Tokyo Olympic Games takes place in 2020. Our country is ready to accept more sports and wellness and, though our people are ageing, there are still over 120 million relatively healthy and wealthy people, and a correspondingly large target market.

Industry insights (Sustainability)

“Sustainability is more than just the right thing to do – it’s what spas have always been about” Karen Short, board president, Green Spa Network

f you’re a spa owner, seeing steady growth in the number of spas adding eco-conscious equipment, products and practices to their brand is inspiring – but it’s also a trend worth emulating. Spa-goers understand why it makes sense to treat our planet with the same conscious care they bring to their wellness lifestyle. Connecting sustainable values with the spa experience earns your guests’ praise. But to stop there would be passing on an important opportunity, because sustainability is more than just the right thing to do – it’s what spas have always been about.

As our industry evolves, success may become less about pioneering that next treatment trend, ancient art or mindful mantra, and more about rediscovering the gifts those healing roots offer. Getting back to the heart of spa and nature helps your guests find their quiet space – something they likely need now more than ever. Whether through your spa’s architecture, design, services or staff’s calming presence, the profound simplicity of offering a green, quiet space will always be the strength and foundation of our industry.

Industry insights (geothermal spas)

“There is a growing understanding that healthcare costs are escalating and that part of the answer lies in the bountiful resources provided by nature” Mark Hennebry, board director, Danubius Hotel Group

he future of the geothermal spa and mineral springs industry is positive; for those of us who work in this sector, it’s self-evident. For our wider spa and wellness industry colleagues, this statement holds true based on similar factors happening throughout the sector. There has been a groundswell of interest in health and wellness over the past number of years, but our guests have typically experienced spas in a hotel or day spa environment. As the beneficial health effects of geothermal and mineral springs are better understood, that guest interest is intensifying. As just one example, the American College of Physicians recently issued new guidelines on non-invasive treatment of back pain, which includes recommendations for non-drug therapies such as heat, massage and multidisciplinary rehabilitation. This helps bring the focus to geothermal spas and mineral springs – and the specific health and wellness benefits of bathing in mineral-rich waters. We’re seeing an upsurge in interest, specifically in Central Europe, where there is a long tradition, dating back centuries, of bathing in hot springs. At the same time, guest behaviour is changing and demand for shorter stays is increasing. We’re already experiencing a shift away from two-week stays towards one-week stays and we anticipate that shorter stays will be in higher demand, particularly with a younger demographic. We already have short-stay offerings, but these need to be developed and extended to respond to a wider range of guest preferences. Finally, there is also a growing understanding that healthcare costs are escalating beyond the ability of governments to increase the tax base to pay for these costs – and that part of the answer lies in the bountiful resources provided by nature. www.spahandbook.com

■ Technicians must view long-term spa treatment plans as a guest service that is part of a holistic wellness plan

“To move from amenity to necessity, spa offerings must be an extension of a brand’s positioning and value proposition”

Amanda Al-Masri, vice president of spa services, Equinox

he spa industry has evolved at a rapid pace and innovation by companies not considered to be traditional spa outlets has been particularly interesting. I recently joined Equinox, a luxury fitness brand that uses spa to drive results and optimise health. Doing this well requires the creation of an ecosystem that eliminates the need to hardsell spa services or wait for guests to come to you. This is done through clear messaging that underscores spa’s importance to the larger brand. To move from amenity to necessity, spa offerings must be an extension of a brand’s positioning and value proposition. Offerings not synergistic with the larger brand point of view create dissonance and make it much more difficult to recommend with authority or appeal effectively to the target market in an innovative way. 76

SPA BUSINESS HANDBOOK 2017 – 2018

Employing excellent technicians who are strong retailers and a good cultural fit is a given in the fitness world. They must view recommendations and long-term treatment plans as excellent guest service – not as an unwelcome sales technique. Relationships are key. Building trusting relationships with guests means becoming an expert part of their high-performance lives. Just as importantly, spa service providers must cultivate partnerships with their colleagues in the larger organisation, working collaboratively with personal trainers and instructors. In every successful scenario, there is a topdown commitment to spa and wellness offerings playing a critical role in what is happening holistically, and everyone who works at the organisation is walking that walk and talking that talk – not just the spa team. www.spahandbook.com

“It’s our responsibility to provide the right training, and systems that don’t push square pegs into round holes” Alexandra Charalampidou, director of financial performance, Resense

■ Many spa managers may have difficulty relating KPIs to everyday business

he spa and wellness industry is exceptional at creating amazing experiences and improving the lives of our guests ... but are we equally good at taking care of our owners and investors? Guest focus is natural for spa and wellness people – their typically intuitive and kinaesthetic nature is often what attracted them to this industry. But for the same reason, ROIs, IRRs and KPIs are not always in spa managers’ comfort zones. As the world becomes more competitive and our clients demand higher financial returns on their investments, how do we deliver? Our industry continues to discuss – and even argue about – the benefits of KPIs and terms such as yield management. I believe the problem is that many – though not all – spa managers may have some difficulty relating these indicators to everyday business in their spas. 78

SPA BUSINESS HANDBOOK 2017 – 2018

The reason we still argue about the benefit is that we’re viewing them as statistics, rather than indicators. KPIs are tools, and their relevance is how they intersect – and the better business decisions that can be made accordingly to optimise performance. For example, we often calculate treatment room utilisation, but how is that actually useful to the spa manager of an existing facility once it’s built? The intersection between therapist utilisation and bookings turned away is far more interesting for indicating rostering or scheduling deficiencies. As spa experts, it’s our responsibility to provide the right training, and systems that don’t push square pegs into round holes, to equip our spa teams with simple, translatable business analysis and techniques that minimise costs, maximise revenue and ensure their assets perform well for their owners and investors. www.spahandbook.com

“An exciting picture is emerging from this broad-spectrum view of paths to mental wellness”

Professor gerry Bodeker, PhD, Department of Epidemiology, Columbia University; and Green Templeton College, University of Oxford

s recently as a few decades ago, it was thought that adult development largely froze in late adolescence and that any growth in mental and emotional capacity during adulthood was marginal. Subsequently, a wealth of neuroscience and cognitive research has shown this to be a serious underestimation of the potential for adults to continue their development throughout their lives. New findings on the connection between gut microbiota and the brain has given rise to the term ‘gut-brain axis’ and nutritional and probiotic solutions to mental health and wellness are currently being studied. New evidence suggests that the shortening of our telomeres across the lifespan can be reduced and that we can actually increase their lengths. Telomeres are the caps on our DNA, which are shortened by stress, inﬂammation and ageing, leading to cellular degeneration and a shortened lifespan, resulting in conditions such as cancer and depression. Strategies for lengthening telomeres include a healthy and anti-inﬂammatory diet, regular exercise, clean air and healthy sleep, alongside the mental paths of positive thinking, gratitude and mind-body techniques such as meditation, yoga or qigong, as well as a supportive and nourishing social environment.

www.spahandbook.com

Regular connection with nature has been shown to increase mental wellbeing and research on ‘earthing’ has found that having the feet in contact with the earth is associated with enhanced immune functioning, wound healing and the prevention and treatment of chronic inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. An exciting picture is emerging from this broad-spectrum view of paths to mental wellness. The most microscopic levels of our lives – our telomeres, the microbes in our gut and their influence on our brain – through to the effects of inner development techniques, such as meditation and the influence of our social environment, all are available as a portfolio of pathways to mental and physical wellness. ● ■ Strategies for lengthening telomeres

PROMOTION: GLOBAL HALOTHERAPY SOLUTIONS

The benefits of halotherapy True halotherapy disperses salt in the form of a dry aerosol, which makes it easier to absorb through the skin or inhale into the lungs. Steve Spiro, founder at Global Halotherapy Solutions, explains more

alotherapy, the use of salt vapours to treat respiratory problems, skin complaints and stress issues, is often confused with Himalayan salt therapy. While similar in concept – both use salt for therapeutic benefit – the therapies are completely different in execution. Himalayan salt treatments involve exposing users to salt through a salt wall or salt crystals. This kind of salt therapy does have some benefit, but is thought to not be as effective as halotherapy. Halotherapy, however uses a halogenerator, a machine that crushes salt and disperses it in the form of a dry aerosol. This

obstructive pulmonary disease, bronchitis, cystic fibrosis, asthma, sinusitis, hay fever and other airborne allergens. It can also ease the symptoms of acute or chronic respiratory illnesses, viral infections and chronic, ear-nose-and-throat illnesses. Halotherapy can also be used to treat skin conditions, including acne, psoriasis and eczema. Aerosolized salt has both antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties that can reduce swelling and redness, prevent acne from forming and provide relief from irritation. Other reported benefits of halotherapy include increased steve spiro, founder, Global Halotherapy solutions energy levels and mental alertness, and a reduction in allows the salt to be absorbed into stress levels and headaches. the skin and inhaled into the lungs, “Halogenerators produce halotherapy where it can deliver the most benefit. by crushing pure, pharmaceutical salt into micro-particles that go deep into the lungs and on the skin,” explains Steve Spiro, Benefits of halotherapy n The Halo FX founder and managing partner at Global is a lightweight When inhaled as an aerosol, salt Halotherapy Solutions (GHS). “Without a halogenerator with a can ease the symptoms of chronic halogenerator, it’s just not halotherapy.” small footprint respiratory problems, including: chronic

10 wellness predictions for 2020 – and beyond Marc Cohen, who leads the Wellness discipline, school of health and Biomedical sciences, at rMIt university in Melbourne, Australia, outlines his predictions for the future of wellness – and the implications for spas

t is always treacherous to make predictions and, in a world where change is occurring at such a rapid pace, the only certainties are that the future will be radically different and that any current forecasts are likely to flawed. Dramatic shifts in human demographics, climate and computer intelligence, together with new technological innovations, renewable energy systems and unprecedented human connectivity, will combine to create a future that’s far beyond the realms of our current thinking. However, though predictions are difficult to make, the following list is based on current trends that are likely to continue into the near future and impact the spa and wellness industry by presenting opportunities and challenges that spa owners and operators may benefit from considering.

spa business HanDbOOK 2017 – 2018

AI CONSULTANTS & VIRTUAL WELLNESS

Artificial intelligence will evolve to create personal AI wellness consultants that design programmes informed by vast data sources, including genetic, microbiome, biosensor, psychometric, geographical exposure and social-connection data. Virtual reality will also move into the wellness world with virtual experiences and getaways to exotic locations, both real and imaginary. Together, virtual reality and AI will power immersive games using real-time biometrics that take us places we have not yet imagined. This will provide spas with the opportunity to create unique experiences and treatments based on guests’ personalised data. It will challenge spas to adapt their wellness offerings to VR environments and it will also challenge spas to provide exhilarating and nurturing real-world experiences that can compete with VR experiences available elsewhere.

THE POCKET LAB

The power of smartphones will be leveraged to revolutionise personal medical testing. Sophisticated technologies – currently only available in specialised labs with multi-milliondollar equipment – will become available to everyone, at minimal cost. Expect to see new low-cost nano-biosensors and devices that collect and analyse our blood, urine, sweat and tears, and measure the quality of our food, water, environment and overall health. This will provide the opportunity for spas to compete with conventional medical services and offer evidencebased services that positively impact guests’ health metrics. Personal wellness metrics will also challenge spas to monitor their guests’ wellbeing and response to treatments, as well as to interface with existing and future medical data and record-keeping systems. www.spahandbook.com

DEEP NATURE

The healing power of nature cannot be overestimated, but nature will become an increasingly valuable resource. As much of the planet is now a tourist destination and true wilderness no longer really exists, people will seek out immersion in ‘deep nature’ that is far away from technological and industrial influences. People will become more attuned to the variability, beauty and fragility of local flora and fauna and the changes humans are imposing on these environments. This will put pressure on natural environments, and on the operators who struggle to preserve nature in its pristine state while coping with the impact of more and more people. Designers and architects will be challenged to create and reproduce seemingly natural experiences in urban environments in order to satisfy our inherent biophilia.

MAKING PEACE WITH THE NATURE WITHIN

The war on microbes that has been raged with antibiotics, chlorine, pesticides, disinfectants and preservatives is coming to an end. We now recognise that 99 per cent of the genetic material in our bodies belongs to the bacteria in our gut – and is vital for health. Expect to see greater emphasis on microbial ecosystems and the benefits of pre- and probiotics, fermented foods, vaginal births, contact with healthy soils, and the use of stool transplants for a range of medical conditions. This increased understanding will provide opportunities to create microbial-based products. A growing understanding of the ‘bathing biome’ will lead to microbial-based water treatments and spas will need to provide hygienic environments while minimising the use of disinfectants.

THE SOUND OF WELLNESS

Sound is all around us and inside us, yet the dominant ambient sound in most urban environments is the hum of industrial noise. Expect to see a greater emphasis on natural soundscapes, with music replacing televised news in waiting rooms and wellness offerings that include true silence. Also expect a greater use of music as medicine, sound therapy devices and an emphasis on the personal benefits of singing, playing music and the sounds of nature. There will be opportunities for musicians to create healing music that engages us in new ways. It will also challenge architects to minimise or counteract ambient noise in the urban environment and (re)produce true silence, which can be used as a blank canvas for conscious soundscapes.

The appeal of ‘deep nature’ – far away from everyday influences – is increasing

DANCE, CHANT & GET HIGH

As people move into a virtual, technologydriven world, they will increasingly seek down-to-earth experiences inspired by indigenous wisdom and cultures. Expect to see a rise in shamanic practices that use traditional foods and plant-based medicines, such as medicinal marijuana and ayahuasca (an Amazonian ceremony brew used as a traditional spiritual medicine), along with a resurgence of ancient rituals such as sweat lodges, chanting, drumming and ecstatic dance. The inclusion of such practices presents an opportunity for spas to create safe spaces for guests to experience extreme emotional catharsis and deep personal transformation. Spas will have to provide therapists who are skilled in dealing with intense situations and coping with potential adverse reactions. Challenges around legal and licensing issues, and issues of cultural appropriation and authenticity, could also arise.

shamanic-style practices could become popular

spas should take the lead on water quality

HOW WET IS YOUR WATER?

The value of pure flowing water will increase and become recognised as a wellness resource. People are now realising their drinking water is often contaminated with heavy metals, pesticides, pharmaceutical drugs and other industrial contaminants. Expect to see smartphone compatible water-test kits; new water harvesting, filtering and purification technologies; and more attention to water quality in food outlets, bathing facilities and wellness locations. An emphasis on water as a wellness resource provides opportunities for spas to promote the unique qualities of their water and deliver on the promise of ‘health through water’. It also challenges spas to seize a leadership position in regard to water quality and reduce the use of pollutants by measuring, monitoring and managing the quality of the water used in their facilities and communities.

UP IN THE AIR

Air quality is becoming an increasingly important issue, both locally and globally. Air quality is vital for optimal health and brain function and – as more people realise that traffic pollution kills more people than traffic accidents – we’ll see more people vacating cities to escape the toxic air. Also expect to see new air-filter technologies, indoor air quality meters and metrics, and fitness centres and other wellness locations that highlight air quality in their offerings. Awareness of air quality provides an opportunity for remote locations that offer fresh air to capitalise on this precious resource, and will challenge urban spas to provide fresh air havens using the latest air-purification technologies. It will also prompt spas to consider going beyond aromas and signature smells, and move to design treatments around specific air-quality measures. www.spahandbook.com

Wellness will become increasingly political, with governments taking up the challenge to measure and administer wellbeing

WELLNESS POLITICS

Wellness will become increasingly political, with governments taking up the challenge to effectively measure and administer wellbeing and align policies with human health, rather than economic health. This is likely to play out in levies on sugar, alcohol, tobacco and fast foods, and policies around health and wellness insurance, workplace wellness incentives, vaccines, food labelling and environmental pollutants. The politics of wellness provides an opportunity for spa services to become incorporated into workplace wellness programmes, government health insurance schemes and community-based health programmes. Spas can also try to enhance the quality of political decisions by championing the inclusion of wellness activities and experiences in the political process – and engaging politicians in nurturing their own wellbeing. www.spahandbook.com

THE CROWD IN THE CLOUD

Wellness is about ‘we’ not ‘I’. With most people owning a connected mobile device, we can expect to see a surge in social media use and peer-to-peer initiatives that harness geographical information systems, sensor technologies and cloud-computing platforms. This leads to crowd-sourced and crowd-funded wellness maps that transcend political boundaries, highlight resource gradients and hold corporations and governments to account. A greater reliance on crowd-based information will extend platforms like TripAdvisor and create opportunities for spas to expand their client base and engage in more meaningful dialogues through crowd-sourced treatments and viral wellness campaigns. This will challenge spas to interface between communities, corporations and governments, and promote trends that foster a global wellness culture.

Government involvement in wellness will increase, with levies on sugar, alcohol and fast food likely, along with policies on food labelling

Waking up to wellness Africa has flown under the radar in the spa industry, but with many countries now focused on health and wellness tourism, that’s about to change. Elaine Okeke Martin tells us more

not create a gap between the two. Tourism plays a critical role in achieving water access and security, as well as hygiene and sanitation for all, but hotel development needs to be regulated to ensure that hotels and resorts do not siphon off – quite literally – much-needed water from local communities.

here’s an energy you feel in Africa from the light, the earth, the air, the rain – and you really feel alive when among lions. Africa can offer guests spa treatments while they look out to elephants grazing the trees.

One to watch South Africa, Egypt, Mauritius, Kenya, Morocco and Tanzania all have well-established spa industries, but Kenya is one to watch; it has a government goal for 2030 that includes a budget dedicated to medical and wellness tourism. The Kenya Tourism Board has recently launched a joint venture with Kenya Airways to promote the country, and Kenya’s largest infrastructure project since independence in 1963 – a US$3.8bn Chinese-built high-speed railway, the Madaraka Express – has just launched, connecting the port city of Mombasa with the capital of Nairobi. The train travels through two national parks, and tour operators plan to use it as a tourism booster.

Global Wellness Institute Initiatives:

tackling key issues for the spa industry In the past year, the global Wellness Institute has doubled the number of industry initiatives it oversees. We take a look at some of their accomplishments

ne pillar of the non-profit Global Wellness Institute (GWI) is to support a fast-growing number of global industry initiatives, whose shared mission is to drive new global conversations about the most crucial wellness industry markets and solve the most pressing wellness industry issues. And the past year has been a major growth story, with the GWI doubling the number of initiatives it oversees as an “umbrella” organisation. Wellness is a vast and deeply global US$3.7tn industry, but the individual 10-sector markets that it comprises – whether spa or workplace wellness or hot springs – can be fragmented. The “initiative” model allows experts to formulate a topic or mission, create a task force of industry leaders on that particular market or topic, and then empowers people to run with it. The model has proved a great success; the GWI could never accomplish on its own what these 20 expert-led initiatives have done. 90

The initiatives take on a life of their own, meeting regularly to move their projects forward, whether it’s new research or a philanthropic campaign. Every initiative chair and task force member selflessly donates their time and expertise for the greater good of their industry, and generally helps drive more health and wellness in the world. And that’s not always easy for international teams, where a strategy call can take place at 8:00am for one member and midnight for another. Although all 20 of the GWI Initiatives are relevant to the spa industry, the following is a report on nine initiatives that have special connections to spas, from the Global Mentorship Programme to the WORLD Retreat Initiative to Wellness for Cancer. Some have just launched, while some have been running strong for years. In the following pages, each initiative chair describes what their initiative is about, what they’ve accomplished this year, and what’s on the table for the next. www.spahandbook.com

Beauty Meets Wellness Initiative n Mark Wuttke, chair President & COO, Babor North America This initiative was forged in 2017 in response to a new reality: we live in an age where beauty and health are converging in a meaningful way. In previous decades, beauty was tied to superficiality or perceived as “only skin deep”, but that concept is now being replaced by the realisation that we can only be our most beautiful selves when we are in our most healthy state – physically, mentally, socially and spiritually. This leads to an exciting moment for the beauty industry, which must now push the value of beauty and health as partners in the development of being our best. The Beauty Meets Wellness Initiative is focusing on two key deliverables: new research and trends forecasting. These two campaigns will help

ensure that the beauty and wellness findings intersect and that the message is clear and direct. The research planned will cover diverse topics. Can you have wellness without beauty? What is the impact

of beauty on individual self-esteem and social connection? Are there gender differences in conceptualising beauty? How do specific cultures or belief systems impact the concept of beauty? What is the fallout

This is an exciting moment for the beauty industry to push the value of beauty and health as partners from an addiction to beauty, the “pathology of perfection”? The planned forecasting reports will identify trends for each of the topics above and, more generally, explore how the beauty industry reconnects with the times.

Research topics include beauty’s impact on selfesteem and how culture affects ideas of beauty

Industry InsIghts Career Development Initiative’s Global Mentorship Program n Jean guy de gabriac, chair Founder & CEO, Tip Touch International A strong focus of the Career Development Initiative – one of the GWI’s very first – has been the Global Mentorship Programme (GMP), which is now in its third year. The GMP was formed to address the lack of welltrained spa staff globally. It matches seasoned executives with at least five years’ experience with up-andcoming professionals in a mentor-mentee relationship. The mentees must have at least two years’ experience as general managers, spa

directors, spa managers, assistant spa managers, lead receptionists or lead therapists. Mentors share their expertise with their mentees and, ideally, the mentorship lasts between three and six months, with one 60-minute call every two weeks. Mentees and mentors are bound by a code of conduct and registered at the Online Mentorship Platform. In the past year, 32 global ambassadors have been named – with approximately 18 more soon to be announced.

The next objective is to create a living, breathing network of spa, wellness and hospitality associations worldwide, which encourages its members to use the GMP as a free benefit. We’re also creating a resource at mentorshipevidence.com, where spa management programmes will donate free online courses to the mentors and mentees. We’re working on a survey for all mentors and mentees, designed to find out what leadership in action means to them.

The Mentorship Programme was formed to address the lack of well-trained spa staff globally

participating in wellness activities. Our group is now working on expanding the team in order to produce a research handbook that will collect the traditional and contemporary wellness cultures from the region, with a publication goal of Q4 2017. Also on deck in the next year will be a series

of roundtables, with resulting white papers and videos made available on the GWI’s Eastern European Initiative web page. The first, very successful, roundtable was held in April 2017 in Riga, Latvia, where the gathered group of experts tackled best practices for wellness in the Baltics.

Eastern European Initiative n Alla sokolova, chair Founder & CEO, Inbalans The Eastern European Initiative was formed about a year ago, and in that time the framework of the working group has been defined. We aim to gather with official ministry representatives, entrepreneurs and practitioners to share wellness best practices from across Eastern Europe. Those practices are rooted in ancient wisdom, yet transformed into 92

modern services to promote a wellness culture that has both local and global appeal.

Our mission is to aggregate existing research and to support new studies on the benefits of bathing in geothermal waters In the past year, we’ve focused on increasing awareness of the global hot springs community. There is evergrowing consumer interest in this segment of the burgeoning global wellness economy. To support this effort, our presentation at the Global Wellness Summit centred around the (r)evolution of the hot springs experience, from its ancient cultural beginnings to its current resurgent status. Our panel presented the health benefits and business impact, and discussed how the global community is looking to the future of hot springs. In the next year, our mission is to aggregate www.spahandbook.com

existing research and to support new studies on the health benefits of bathing in geothermal and hot spring mineral waters. We’ll also enhance and promote the wellnessevidence.com resource, which is a portal designed to help people explore medical evidence for the most common wellness therapies. Concurrently, we’ll also be creating a comprehensive and sustainable best practices profile for water sanitation and recirculation.

With wellness architecture identified as a top trend, we’ve had an exciting year. This spring, the initiative launched a survey to gather a collection of sample wellness architecture projects from around the globe. These

projects will then be mapped and promoted to spread awareness that design centred around human health and wellbeing is not a future ideal; it is the focus for leaders today. In the summer of 2017, the initiative hosted a roundtable that facilitated discussions from thinkers across industries whose expertise relates to the built environment. Discussion

The World Bank said that “the foregone economic output because of mental, neurological and substance use disorders globally is in trillions of dollars.” Simultaneously, the wellness community has been exploring paths to mental wellbeing, inner fulfillment, and development of qualities such as compassion, wisdom,

A group of sixteen experienced wellness practitioners has shaped the Mental Wellness Initiative’s broad-spectrum approach to wellness: from the molecular (microbiome and telomeres) to self-care through yoga, meditation, exercise and

diet, to the wider influences of society and the natural environment in creating conditions for expanding human potential and fulfillment. A newly formed initiative, our mission in the next year is to identify paths to mental wellness and higher human potential, to develop guidelines and curricula, and generate a broad-spectrum body of searchable evidence.

We will begin collecting data from retreat guests before and after their stay, with follow-ups at six, 12 and 24 weeks, in order to assess a range of physical, psychological, cognitive and clinical measures. We’ve already enlisted the support of a number of retreat

Living Well

Wellness communities are on the rise as developers, investors, consumers and governments start to see the benefits of living spaces dedicated to health. Jane Kitchen takes a closer look at the growing market

EFFEKT ARCHITECTS

he Global Wellness Institute (GWI) has estimated wellness real estate to be a US$118.6bn (€107bn, £95bn) sector that’s growing at a rate of nearly 20 per cent, with communities cropping up worldwide. This has spurred a GWI Initiative on wellness communities, as well as the first dedicated research report on the subject, to be released at the 2017 Global Wellness Summit. The GWI Initiative developed a white paper that has helped to define the category. In order to deem a community “well”, it must feature some kind of environmental consciousness, with sustainable development and operating practices; have a commitment to holistic health and wellness; and foster social connections. Spas can feature front-andcentre in these developments, and many include substantial wellness centres on-site. “With the development of this market, spas and the spa

Finding connections, whether it’s through community activities, spending time in nature or intergenerational living, is something wellness

communities aim to nourish – and that is appealing to developers. Kyricos says she expects the sector to grow. “This isn’t just an underserved market for a select few; it’s a major market opportunity that spans all income levels and geographies,” she says.

Located on Bainbridge Island, a 35-minute ferry ride from downtown Seattle, Grow Community is being developed with a sustainability action plan and a goal of community connection, smaller carbon footprints and increased health and wellbeing. A total of 142 homes are being built in three phases; phase one is complete, and work is underway on phase two.

When itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fully developed, Grow will provide more than 50 per cent open space, including myriad garden options for enriched community connection. The first phase of Grow was completed in 2014, and residents have been living there since 2012. In the first three years, residents reported an 85 per cent increase in walking and a 30 per cent increase in cycling, and 65 per cent of residents participated in communal gardening. Three-quarters of households reported improved physical or mental wellbeing compared to where they lived before.

Located in the historic coastal fishing and farming town of Todos Santos, Tres Santos is described as “an intimate mindful living village”. The development includes a 3.5-mile bike and pedestrian path connecting the village to the beach, as well as a 1.5-acre organic town garden with winding paths, an orchard and farm-to-table restaurant.

Tres Santos includes outdoor wellness activities such as surfing, yoga, biking, walking, swimming and trekking. While it doesn’t yet have plans for an on-site spa, Elizabeth Shapiro, a spokesperson for the development, says they are in talks with several spa operators and “that’s definitely something we’re interested in doing.”

GOCO Hospitality is creating a GOCO Retreat across 750 acres (304 hectares) in the West Virginia countryside, not far from Washington, DC. The project focuses heavily on the area’s natural mineral springs, and will include both a 70-bedroom wellness hotel and 150 houses. Ingo Schweder, GOCO Hospitality CEO, said he expects the homes to attract busy city dwellers in Washington, DC, or Charlotte, North Carolina, who are looking for a second-home escape.

An on-site 4,000sq m (43,056sq ft) spa will include mineral spring bathing and other wellness activities, including canoeing, hiking, biking and horseback riding, will be incorporated in the Retreat. Schweder said he is also in talks with a DC-based sustainable think tank to be anchored to the Retreat, and that he expects the location to be a space for politicians to escape for off-site meetings. The Retreat is in the masterplanning stage; an opening date has not been set. www.spahandbook.com

igures from the 2016 Global Wellness Economy Monitor show that the global spa and thermal/ mineral springs industries continue to grow, evolving with consumer preferences in a dynamic wellness economy. The current and future state of the wellness economy is strong, propelled by consumer and demographic trends that are fuelling increased spending on both health and wellbeing.

Spas earned US$77.6bn in revenue in 2015

112 spa business HANDBOOK 2017 – 2018

Research study 1

THE SPA ECONOMY The Global Wellness Institute (GWI) estimates 121,595 spas were operating worldwide in 2015, earning US$77.6bn (€70.1bn, £50.8bn) in revenue and employing more than 2.1 million people. When measured in US dollars, industry revenue expanded 2.3 per cent annually

since 2013, adding US$3.5bn during the period from 2013 to 2015. However, when the figure is reported in euros, revenue growth was an impressive 11.9 per cent annually from 2013 to 2015, growing from €56bn to €70.1bn. The difference is due to the appreciation of the US dollar against the euro during this time. To grasp the scale of the industry’s growth, it might be more illuminating to consider the 16,005 new spas worldwide and the 237,424 new employees who have joined the industry since 2013. The largest growth in the number of spas and revenues occurred in the hotel/ resort spas category. This is because most 4-star properties and many 3-star properties have been adding spa services as they have quickly become an amenity expected by guests, even at the mid-tier level. In many of the mature spa markets, the growth in the number of spas reflects the addition of spas to existing hotel/ resort properties as much as, or more than, openings of entirely new properties. This trend is also decreasing the average size of a spa, as those targeting the mid-tier market tend to be smaller than the flagship spas in higher-end properties. While Europe continues to lead in overall spa revenues, Asia-Pacific www.spahandbook.com

At the Global Wellness Summit, different-sized balls were used to represent the 10 sectors that make up the wellness economy

We project spa facility revenues will rise at a 6 per cent annual rate over the next few years, reaching an estimated US$104bn by 2020. The industry is likely to employ 2.8 million workers by then boasts the greatest number of spa establishments and also added the most new spas between 2013 and 2015.

MARKET GROWTH Not surprisingly, China led the charge, while other emerging markets such as India, Indonesia, Vietnam and Thailand continued to expand. In the mature markets in North America and Europe, spas have continued to grow in number and revenues. Meanwhile, Africa, the Middle East and Latin America also showed robust growth, fuelled by a rising middle class with more disposable income. However, security concerns have www.spahandbook.com

put a dampener on growth in some Middle Eastern and North African countries. The solid growth rates must not mask the challenges faced by spas today. Even with an expanding customer base, spas are facing rising operating costs, skilled labour shortages and competition from new spas and non-spa entities. At the same time, spas are navigating a complex landscape where consumers demand value, quality, specialisation, one-stop convenience, authenticity, differentiation, evidence and results. We project spa facility revenues will rise at a 6 per cent annual rate over the next few years, reaching an estimated

US$104bn (€99.4bn, £84.7bn) by 2020. The industry is likely to employ 2.8 million workers by then and will need an extra 400,000 trained spa therapists and 70,000 experienced spa managers and directors to accommodate this growth. Spa growth also drives a broader spa economy, encompassing not just spas, but also other sectors that support and enable spa businesses, such as spa education, consulting, capital investment, associations, media and events. These related sectors added US$21bn (€20bn, £17bn) to 2015’s US$77.6bn spa revenues to create a US$98.6bn (€94.2bn, £80.3bn) global spa economy. spa business HANDBOOK 2017 – 2018 113

Our research indicates that there is rapidly rising consumer, investor and government interest in springs-based activities, with most establishments experiencing solid growth in both attendance and revenues. Measured in US dollars, the industry added US$1bn in revenues from 2013 to 2015, growing from US$50bn in 2013 to US$51bn in 2015. However, this modest growth trend is deceptive because it is dampened by the recent currency fluctuations. The areas with the largest thermal/mineral springs industries – especially Europe and Japan – saw major currency depreciation against the US dollar from 2013 to 2015, and so the revenue growth rates in these countries were much higher in their local currencies than in US dollars. Converting industry revenues to euros, the thermal/mineral springs

industry grew by a robust 10.4 per cent annually between 2013 and 2015 – from €37.9bn in 2013 to €46.1bn in 2015. Most of the world’s thermal/mineral springs industry is concentrated in Asia-Pacific and Europe (94 per cent of establishments and 96 per cent of industry revenues). Japan alone, with its estimated 17,328 onsen, is home to nearly two-thirds of all establishments. But, because of their typically small size,

they earn less revenues than China’s hot springs resorts (numbering 2,200). Other top markets include European countries with long traditions of using thermal/ mineral waters for therapeutic purposes. The decline in government subsidies for bathing as cure is driving many businesses to invest in better facilities to attract a younger, self-paying clientele. The world’s thermal/mineral springs establishments include a mix of rustic, traditional bathing facilities, hot springs resorts, hotels with thermal water bathing, thermal waterparks and thermal/mineral water-based sanatoria or health resorts. Establishments that offer value-added spa services – such as massage or facials – earn much higher revenues than those that offer bathing only. Thermal/mineral springs that offer such services (about a quarter of them) tend to be more developed and higher-end, and they account for nearly two-thirds of the industry’s revenues. www.spahandbook.com

The thermal/mineral springs industry is positioned for rising investment and growth, as consumers increasingly seek out the healing and relaxing properties of water and nature Overall, the thermal/mineral springs industry is positioned for rising investment and growth, as consumers increasingly seek out the healing and relaxing properties of water and nature. We project that industry revenues will grow at 4.8 per cent annually from 2015 to 2020, driven by rising consumer interest. Many countries are also including thermal/mineral springs as a major pillar in their wellness tourism marketing and development strategies, such as Greece, Turkey, China, Japan, Chile and Uruguay, among others.

THE WELLNESS ECONOMY The wellness economy encompasses industries that enable consumers to incorporate wellness activities into their daily lives.

estate. These five industries – combined with five other wellness sectors that we measure using secondary sources – comprise the global wellness economy, a US$3.7tn (€3.5tn, £3tn) market in 2015. The wellness economy now represents more than 5 per cent of global economic output, and it is almost half the size of global health expenditures, which reached US$7.6tn (€7.3tn, £6.2tn) in 2014. From 2013 to 2015, the wellness economy grew by 10.6 per cent (from US$3.4tn to US$3.7tn), while in the same period, the global economy shrank by -3.6 per cent. Wellness economy growth is robust and resilient because it is positioned at the intersection of several major global trends: rising disposable incomes;

the emerging global middle class; the mounting global health crisis; an increasing interest in travel, authenticity and new experiences; and an emerging collective consciousness about the wellbeing of people and the planet. Opportunities are particularly strong for businesses and sectors that aim to help people integrate wellness into their daily lives instead of thinking of it as a luxury activity. As more people around the world turn to wellness-focused activities and lifestyles to mitigate their mounting stress and deteriorating health, we project that spas, thermal/mineral springs and other wellness sectors will continue expanding at a healthy pace – faster than global GDP growth – in the coming years. l n About the author: Ophelia Yeung is a senior research fellow at the Global Wellness Institute.

Retail therapy Spa retail is critical not only to profitability, but also to a spa’s overall brand message and vision. Nancy Griffin highlights some of the findings from Contento Marketing’s in-depth retail survey

etail sales are an important component of any spa’s profitability, but many spa directors struggle to create a meaningful retail concept and engage their therapists with selling. A new survey, conducted by Contento Marketing, found that only about half of spas are satisfied with their retail concept, and more than half acknowledge that their retail area could benefit from improvement. While this may sound discouraging, it’s an incredible opportunity for skincare brands and consultants to help create more engaging, dynamic retail concepts – and to help shape the future of spa retail. The survey was administered in March 2017 to 400 US-based spa directors, owners and operators. Contento collaborated on the survey design with Ann Patton, principal of Savvy Spas and instructor of the spa retail course at the University of California Irvine Spa & Hospitality Management programme. The goal was to design an in-depth survey on spa retail trends, challenges and opportunities, financial metrics, compensation, sales and merchandising strategies and vendor relations. 116 SPA BUSINESS HANDBOOK 2017 – 2018

Of the 150 survey respondents, 85 per cent were spa directors or managers, and 15 per cent fell in the “other” category, which included owner/presidents and regional, national or corporate directors. Participating properties included Destination Hotels, ESPA, Fairmont, Four Seasons, Hilton, Hyatt, Langham Hotels, Mandarin Oriental, Marriott, Montage, Omni, Ritz Carlton and Rosewood Hotels, Sheraton, St. Regis and Westin. Nearly half (48 per cent) of respondents were resort spas, with hotel spas representing 19 per cent and day spas representing 18 per cent. While the participating properties were US-based, the insights presented are useful for any owner, operator, manager, supplier or consultant seeking baseline metrics and strategies to improve spa retail sales.

Satisfaction with retail operations

More than half of spas surveyed say they have a strong retail concept

Slightly more than half (52 per cent) of spas surveyed responded that they had a strong retail concept and presentation, but only a quarter of the respondents were satisfied with the visual appeal. Overall sales volumes and inventory turn rates showed a similar trend: only one-fifth of respondents were completely www.spahandbook.com

Consider a role for a personal skincare shopper, who designs product-specific, resultsoriented regimes tailored to each guest’s needs

Sixty-five per cent of respondents report an increase in revenues in facial skincare “One of the reasons massage therapists are attracted to on-demand employers is because they aren’t expected to sell,” says Michael Tompkins, executive recruiter at Hutchinson Consulting. Over half (55 per cent) of respondents felt pressure from online sites like Amazon and eBay – which often offer quick home delivery and attractive pricing – yet only a quarter of respondents said that other spas in the immediate areas carrying the same lines created a significant challenge.

satisfied, and 55 per cent conceded that they could be improved. Regarding retail profitability, the results showed that 37 per cent of those surveyed were highly satisfied with their margins, while half said retail profits could be improved.

Retail trends by category Sixty-five per cent of respondents reported an increase in revenues year-over-year in professional skincare for the face, with sales flat for only 8 per cent. Sales for body products were mixed: up for 44 per cent, flat for 40 per cent, and down for 13 per cent. Just over one-third of respondents said they did not offer wellness gifts, books and music, and onefifth did not offer accessories or apparel – perhaps an area for potential new sales.

Challenges Staff resistance to selling is the number one retail-sales blocker, with threequarters of respondents citing it as the biggest spa retail challenge. It’s also increasingly becoming a challenge to retain employees, as many therapists consider themselves healers rather than sellers, and are looking at models that don’t require sales as part of the job.

NEXT STEPS 1. Make retail a priority. Spas with successful retail sales work hard. Make a plan to review your visual merchandising, product mix and compensation strategy. Re-merchandise regularly. Work closely with your vendors to create shelf-talkers, countertop displays, special promotions and guestappreciation events. 2. Measure retail per service. Professional products used in treatments are the current driver of retail for the majority of spas. Savvy spa operators are measuring the amount of retail sold per service, in addition to monitoring their retail sales as a percentage of overall spa revenues. Estheticians and massage therapists have the client’s ear – it makes sense for them to initiate the sale. 3. Train and incentivise all frontline staff. Hire front-desk staff with sales acumen – then pave the way for their success by providing the right tools. Training front-desk and retail staff on selling

techniques and skincare lines in conjunction with licensed staff will become a necessity. “Structuring sales incentives for all personnel will be key to a successful operation,” says Michael Tompkins, executive recruiter at Hutchinson Consulting. 4. Develop multiple retail touchpoints. Resort properties will benefit from telling a continuous product story not only through the spa, but also through the entire property. Think complimentary in-room gift sets, spa products as gifts and pop-up spa events in the lobby, poolside or meeting space. 5. Don’t lose the sale. Selling spa products on your website increases your spa’s profitability by providing a convenient method of re-purchase. If e-commerce is not practical, ask your vendors to drop-ship. “Working with resource partners to create drop-ship opportunities and custom gift sales will be a win-win for spa and vendor,” says Tompkins.

118 SPA BUSINESS HANDBOOK 2017 – 2018

6. Look to day spas for inspiration. Key indicators show day spas outperform resort and hotel spas in retail sales, generating a higher retail-to-service ratio and higher average retail sales per square foot. Resort and hotel operators can learn from them how to grow retail sales and the facial services that drive retail sales. 7. Hire a designated retail associate. “Consider a role for a personal skincare shopper in the spa, who designs product-specific, results-oriented skincare regimes tailored to each guest’s needs. ‘Personal skincare stylist’ could be a retail job role of the future,” says Tompkins.

Ninety-eight per cent of respondents offer a commission structure to therapists and/or front desk staff

“Spas are typically in direct competition for a certain market segment,” says Savvy Spas’ Patton. “It’s essential that spa directors and retail managers, at a minimum, keep abreast of the retail offerings of their direct comp set.”

Sales channels Spa directors report losing sales to websites like Amazon and eBay, yet 70 per cent still don’t offer the ability to purchase online from the spa. Day spas are leading the pack when it comes to e-commerce sales; more than three times more day spas than hotel and resort spas offer e-commerce – 56 per cent of day spas versus 11 per cent of hotel spas and 14 per cent of resort spas. Less than a third of spas work with their vendors to drop-ship, but Patton sees that changing, which will help spas become more competitive with www.spahandbook.com

Re-merchandising Re-merchandising refers to changing products and visual displays to optimise retail mix and sell-through. The majority of spas surveyed re-merchandised monthly (44 per cent), followed by weekly (31 per cent). But, many experts recommend re-merchandising more frequently – even every day. Small, daily changes can have a big impact and keep things looking fresh and new.

Compensation strategies Almost every respondent (98 per cent) offered some sort of commission structure to either therapists and/or front-desk staff, and 64 per cent offered both commission and incentives. In terms of the structure of commission payout, 70 per cent offered a flat percentage payout, 34 per cent offered some type of sliding scale percentage, and 16 per cent offered “pooled” or shared commissions.

Vendor support Overall, respondents appeared satisfied with vendor support. Raising vendor service levels will increase sales and strengthen brand and vendor relationships, but expectations must be realistic on both sides. The key areas for improved vendor support are in the www.spahandbook.com

retail sales. “Vendor drop-shipping will become a must for spa retail sales in the future,” she explains. Only 10 per cent of respondents sold spa retail outside the four walls of the spa, representing a significant opportunity to increase revenues. Strategies are needed to sell retail outside of spa; kiosks, pop-up displays and portable rolling retail cases can generate interest in the spa while providing an additional revenue centre.

KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS Retail sales versus overall revenues When respondents were asked to benchmark retail sales against total spa revenue, nearly one-third of all respondents reported that retail made up less than 10 per cent of total sales. The highest number of respondents (38 per cent) reported a range of 11 to 15 per cent retail to total sales, and only 2 per cent reported retail-to-service sales of more than 30 per cent.

square foot – the standard performance metrics for retail outlets. According to Patton, industry benchmarks suggest that a good goal for total annual retail sales per square foot is US$1,000 per square foot (€858, £769). Survey results indicate that day spas are proving to come very close to that overall benchmark at US$898 per square foot, while hotel and resort spas are averaging around US$750 per square foot. ● ■ about the author: Nancy Griffin is principal of Contento Marketing, a strategic marketing firm for spas and wellness brands.

Skin deep cosmetic services are a fast-growing subsection of the beauty and anti-ageing market, but few luxury hotels are reaping the benefits. Fabian Modena and Matthew Brennan outline the findings from a new study – and the opportunities for the industry

Invasive, non-invasive and minimally invasive The cosmetic beauty services industry is commonly divided into three subsections: non-invasive, minimally invasive and invasive treatment or surgery. Minimally invasive procedures can be further subdivided into injectables and energybased and cosmeceutical services. 120 spa business HanDbOOK 2017 – 2018

The us represents the largest market in non-surgical cosmetic treatments

Invasive treatments are surgical procedures that penetrate the skin by either cutting or piercing, such as liposuction, breast augmentation, eyelid surgery, tummy tucks or nose surgery. Non-invasive treatments do not require any penetration into the skin, and also cover a number of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, including chiropractic manipulation, physical therapy and heat therapy.

he global wellness economy is growing at an unprecedented rate, and was valued at more than US$3.7tn in 2015. Making up the largest share of this is the beauty and anti-ageing market, which was valued at US$999bn – nearly twice the size of the wellness tourism market (US$563bn). Within the beauty and anti-ageing market is the subsection of cosmetic beauty services. In today’s market, the word ‘cosmetic’ is used to serve the purpose of enhancing or augmenting external beauty, or for perceived physical improvement – and this subsection is growing quickly. Upscale and luxury hotels have an opportunity to capitalise on this, adding revenue with low-cost/high-margin treatments incluidng longevity, aesthetic and detoxification treatments.

result in noticeable cosmetic changes or improvements. This includes injections such as Botox, dermal fillers, lipofilling and microdermabrasion, as well as lasers, chemical peels and cosmeceuticals – a combination of cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.

Medical aesthetic treatments The international medical aesthetic treatment market is expected to rise to US$6.56bn by 2018, led by non-invasive treatments such as Botox, but also including a variation of energy-based services such as radio frequency and laser treatments, driving future medical aesthetic demand globally. The US represents the largest market in nonsurgical cosmetic treatments, followed by Asia and Europe; however, the highest growth rates are being seen in Asia. Minimally invasive treatments are gaining in popularity, as they require little to no downtime, often deliver immediate results and require very small incision or injection sites, resulting in less pain and very few post-procedure complications. The facial aesthetic market specifically is expected to grow at a rate of 9.82 per cent until 2020, and a shift from invasive www.spahandbook.com

to non-invasive treatments is already evident. Between 2015 and 2016, the most significant growth rate was for photo-rejuvenation – a skin treatment that uses lasers to treat wrinkles or age spots – which grew 36 per cent and accounted for more than 650,000 procedures in the US. This was followed by hyaluronic acid treatments, which grew 16 per cent.

Key opportunities We believe there are opportunities for upscale and luxury hotels to convert a cost centre into a revenue centre by implementing some medical and aesthetic services, depending on the hotel’s location and its access to relevant supplies. Aesthetic and longevity treatments will cater towards both male and female consumers; however, our research has shown that aesthetic treatments are more popular with women and the longevity services are more popular with men – especially high-net-worth individuals. The longevity treatment service is a low-cost, high-margin opportunity – with margins www.spahandbook.com

above 2,200 per cent. Offering this type of specialised facility within a spa environment creates a niche for hotels to capitalise on this high-margin industry. Detoxification treatments, such as chelation therapy, liver detox and lymphatic drainage, are intravenous therapies that are in high demand with consumers over the age of 36. The demand for energy boosters, such as Myers cocktails, megadose vitamins (MPV) and ozone IV therapy, as well as immune boosters like QRS treatment or mesenchymal stem cell, is booming for consumers aged over 65. Both treatment segmentations represent an attractive – and relatively straightforward – additional revenue centre for spa facilities. There are still unexplored opportunities to implement a number of high-yielding cosmetic treatments within the hotel spa environment, incurring a reasonable investment volume and utilising less than 150sq m (1,615sq ft) of space. Partnering with a third-party provider with a positive track record in aesthetic

treatments is another path to introducing these services, and will guarantee expertise, trained specialists and longstanding supplier and industry relations. This can also help as many specialised treatments require associated licenses. Most luxury hotel spas are not capitalising sufficiently on this ever-growing industry. An efficient implementation with a specifically tailored selection of services will not only elevate the spa facility’s reputation, but it will also open doors to a new customer segment with high disposable income. l

ne of the growing trends in the travel and hospitality sector is the rise of the wellness industry. With greater focus on healthy habits and overall wellbeing, hotel spas are beginning to experience the positive impact of this trend. Within the UAE, Dubai’s spa market is in the lead, with more than 200 spas currently in operation, and more than 25 new hotel spas expected to open in the next year. Given the growing significance of spas in the region and the interest from leading operators, Colliers International Hotels (MENA) launched the Dubai Spa Benchmark Report in 2015. The report features 14 key metrics designed to track spa operational performance.

Overall, RevPATH (Revenue Per Available Treatment Hour) increased by 2 per cent in Dubai, indicating a small growth in spa revenues. The largest share of demand in Dubai’s hotel spas is generated from the domestic market, representing 45-55 per cent of spa guests. Top source markets include GCC, UK and India, primarily those residing within the UAE. Demand for hotel spas has increased from UAE residents, with both city hotels and resorts reporting an increase in walk-in demand. International demand may represent anywhere between 20 and 40 per cent of guests, and is driven mainly by UK, German and Russian markets. A closer analysis of the data reveals that the growth in spa revenue continues to be driven by Dubai’s resort market. Dubai’s resort spas have been able to recover from the dip in performance observed in 2015, returning to their 2014 performance levels.

Therapist utilisation is an important indicator to ensure that a spa is correctly staffed. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s calculated by dividing the available therapist hours for the given period by the occupied therapist hours. Data from 2016 reveals that the utilisation of therapist hours has increased in both city and resort spas (see Graph 3). Therapist utilisation in city hotel spas increased from 41 per cent to 43 per cent in 2016, despite a decrease in treatments sold, suggesting greater efficiencies in staffing. Resort spas experienced a greater increase in therapist utilisation, from 59 per cent to 63 per cent in 2016, along with a 5 per cent increase in treatment revenue generated per therapist, resulting from an increase in the number of treatments sold per day.

from AED326 in 2015 to AED344 in 2016, resulting in a RevPATH growth of 2 per cent from AED43.6 to AED44.6. While both resort spas and city hotel spas have seen an increase in the number of walk-in guests, resort spas have a higher share of in-house guests (61 per cent) than city hotel spas (57 per cent). As a result, resorts benefit from higher spending and bookings from tourists, while resident walk-in guests, often more price-sensitive, tend to look for discounts and seasonal promotions. Retail revenue contribution showed a greater decline in city hotel spas than in resort spas (see Graph 1), falling from 11 per cent of total spa revenue in 2015 to 8 per cent in 2016. The data signals that hotels still cater to a higher share of price-sensitive demand, despite the rise in average treatment rates observed in 2016.

spas experienced a 3 per cent increase in average treatment rates from AED408 to AED420 (see Graph 2). The increase in average treatment rate is highest from Palm Jumeirah properties, a topperforming district within the Dubai hotel market in terms of hotel room average daily rate. Additionally, the average number of treatments sold per day in resort spas rose from 35 to 36 treatments per day. As a result, utilisation indicators have shown improvement, with an increase in both therapist and treatment room utilisation by 5 per cent and 9 per cent, respectively. On the other hand, city hotels face challenges to maintain a steady customer base, as indicated by the drop in the number of treatments sold per day, from 14 to 12 treatments per day. However, city hotels experienced a growth in average treatment rate by 6 per cent, increasing

However, therapist utilisation rates were 50 per cent in new spas versus 53 per cent in established spas, suggesting greater efficiencies in established spas. New spas have a higher capture rate (2.9 per cent versus 1.9 per cent) of hotel guests, which may explain the premium in rate new spas are able to achieve.

training and marketing Additionally, 84 per cent of the respondent spas had a soft opening, typically for a period of between one week to a month, giving staff time to be trained and to get accustomed to the spa’s operations. It’s vital for staff to be trained, tested and re-trained prior to the opening date, with an ideal training period of at least two to three months prior to opening. For many openings, training takes place at the last moment, which can negatively impact the reputation and perception of the spa right from the start. Spa directors would benefit from scheduling regular training sessions after the spa has opened to cover items the staff may have forgotten or missed. The survey revealed that 58 per cent of respondents began marketing the spa one month or less before opening, with only 11 per cent of respondents beginning marketing from four to six months out. Given the highly competitive environment, it’s vital to get a viable sales

Colliers International conducted a survey in March 2017 on spa pre-openings. Results from 19 respondents revealed that 68 per cent of spa openings in the sample were delayed by between one and six months, out of which 58 per cent of respondents said the spa opening was delayed between one and three months. The timeline to open a spa, like a hotel, requires extensive planning and execution. Often the time required to effectively open a spa is misjudged, leading to delays. The primary reasons for spa opening delays reported in the survey were a result of the hotel opening being delayed; delays in the delivery of furniture, fitting and equipment (FF&E), or FF&E not being up to brand standards; and issues with obtaining the necessary licenses and permits. Only 13 per cent of the sample reported recruitment as a reason for spa opening delays. Spa directors were typically recruited 4.2 months before the planned opening, while spa therapists were hired an average 1.8 months before opening. Spa managers and supervisors

Dubai spa market outlook Once considered a luxury, wellness is now becoming part of everyday life â&#x20AC;&#x201C; from how people work to how they travel. As the spa and wellness sector continues to grow in the region, hotel spas will have www.spahandbook.com

to innovate to adapt to demand from an increasingly price-sensitive customer base and competition from a constant stream of new entrants. Part of the innovation will require greater financial accountability of spas. Spa directors need to be able to accurately measure and consistently monitor the spa's performance and see how it compares to that of other spas within the market. l

Growing well In the first ever industry benchmark report for wellness spas, Intelligent Spas finds the niche industry poised for growth – and generating more revenue than industry averages. Julie Garrow shares more

How are wellness spas performing financially? The annual revenue generated in the past financial year averaged US$1.3m (€1.2m, £1m), compared with the industry average of US$690,000 (€635,500, £548,000). On average, 67 per cent of wellness spas’ 128 SPA BUSINESS HANDBOOK 2017 – 2018

On average, 67 per cent of wellness spas’ revenue is from treatments

revenue was generated by treatments, with 4 per cent coming from retail sales. Annual revenue per square metre was US$857 (€794, £687). And annual expenses per spa amounted to just over 40 per cent of revenue. Wellness spas retained an average of 20.3 employees, significantly higher than the industry average of 14 spa employees retained.

he first ever industry benchmark report for wellness spas revealed that wellness spas employ more people, attract a bigger percentage of local residents, and generate more revenue per square metre or square foot compared with all spa types on average. Produced by independent research company Intelligent Spas, the Wellness Spas Benchmark Report involved a group of 16 selected spas across Europe, Africa, the Middle East and Asia, with an average size of 3,026sq m (32,570sq ft). For the purposes of the research, Intelligent Spas defined a wellness spa as offering a variety of spa treatments and packages incorporating wellness attributes; health and fitness-related services, classes and consultations; and an emphasis on wellness throughout its branding.

Wellness spas welcomed 9,526 guests on average during the past financial year, 46 per cent of whom were return visitors. The gender distribution of those visitors is fairly close, with 56 per cent of visitors being women and 44 per cent being men. This is slightly different from the gender split between visitors to the average spa, where 41 per cent are men and 59 per cent are women. The largest market segment by age for wellness spas was also quite young, with the coveted 30- to 39-year-old range coming in on top. On average, 63 per cent of wellness spa visitors were local residents and 22 per cent were international tourists, compared with 50 per cent and 27 per cent, respectively, in industry averages. At hotels and resorts, 37 per cent of spa visits were captured from guests staying at the property co-located with the wellness spa.

daily rate of US$401 (€372, £322). Revenue per available room (RevPAR) for wellness spas was US$159 (€147, £128). More hotel groups are incorporating wellness spas into their offering, and these new statistics help them better plan and implement the spa facility as a revenue-generating department, as opposed to an assumed, must-have cost centre. A detailed campaign is required to continually entice hotel guests to the spa, thus increasing RevPAR for the hotel business, while generating guest loyalty by providing spa and wellness options.

This was the first time Intelligent Spas incorporated a question about unique selling propositions (USPs) in its spa benchmark survey. This helped us to correctly categorise wellness spas, plus reminded respondents why their spa is special, which helps when promoting their spa in competitive markets. The majority of survey respondents stated their wellness treatments and facilities strongly contributed to their USP. n 62 per cent of wellness spas offered a hammam or a hammam-style treatment n 67 per cent offered a relaxing bath experience n 53 per cent provided consultations for medical-related services, being either conventional and/or complementary n 80 per cent of spas surveyed stated they offered separate relaxation rooms for females and males

Generation next isPa’s latest Consumer Snapshot survey looks at american millennials and their spa-going habits. Leonor stanton investigates

Who are millennial spa-goers? Women represent 54 per cent of this spa-going demographic, while 46 per cent are men. The majority – 64 per cent – are between 25 and 35 years of age, with 34 132 spa business HanDbOOK 2017 – 2018

per cent in the 17 to 25-year bracket. The highest proportion – 62 per cent – lives in the Southwest region of the US. Spa-goers are more likely to be in employment than non-spa goers (64 per cent versus 52 per cent) and spa-goers are also more likely than non-spa-goers to have a college degree (63 per cent versus 48 per cent).

Male versus female spa-goers According to the survey, millennial women are more likely to visit a salon spa, while millennial men appear to prefer resort spas or those located within a fitness facility. This correlates with the fact that 21 per cent of male (compared with 9 per cent of female) respondents to the survey said that the key reason for their

he seventh Consumer Snapshot survey, commissioned by the International Spa Association (ISPA) in 2016, focused on the US millennial generation – born between 1980 and 1997 – which represents more than one in four Americans. PricewaterhouseCoopers (PWC) carried out the online survey, achieving 1,018 responses representative of the regional distribution of the relevant age group – and not targeting spa-goers specifically. The report concludes that the findings provide “striking evidence that millennials are a huge reservoir of demand for US spas” given that, for the first time in ISPA’s Consumer Snapshot surveys, “spa-goers outnumber non-spa-goers … with 56 per cent of the millennials surveyed stating they have visited a spa in the past 12 months.” Although already an important market for spas, the vast majority (83 per cent) of millennial spa-goers are “infrequent” visitors – meaning that they visit a spa fewer than five times a year.

More than half of millennials surveyed have visited a spa in the past 12 months, but the majority have been less than five times in total most recent trip to a spa was to “recover from injury/illness or to soothe sore joints/muscles”. Equally, to “improve my appearance”, “reduce/relieve stress” and “treat myself/indulge” were much more important motivators to women than men. According to the researchers, the statistics from this study “certainly suggest that the millennial man is out to debunk some of the traditional stereotypes around spa treatments … While manicure and pedicure treatments may have traditionally been seen as the domain of females, this survey rejects that assertion, with more male spa-going www.spahandbook.com

millennials claiming to have had a manicure or pedicure (52 per cent) than not (48 per cent). Similarly, well over half (59 per cent) of male respondents state they have had a facial at a spa.” Corresponding with men’s desire to “recover from injury/illness or to soothe sore joints/muscles”, they are more likely than women to opt for hydrotherapy (43 per cent, versus 28 per cent for women), aromatherapy (51 per cent, versus 43 per cent for women) and a body scrub/wrap (54 per cent, versus 46 per cent). Millennial males are more likely than females to book their spa appointments

online – 29 per cent of men, compared with 20 per cent of women. Men are also more likely to book via social media – 11 per cent, compared with 3 per cent. Millennial women say they prefer to book their appointments either by telephone (49 per cent) or in person (14 per cent).

Millennials and technology The report authors state that “the data behind this study suggests that millennials are a tech-savvy generation who use [technology] to enhance and simplify their daily lives.” Some 80 per cent of those surveyed agreed spa business HanDbOOK 2017 – 2018 133

ReseaRch: NoRth ameRica that “technology helps me manage tasks more easily”, 71 per cent agreed that “technology leaves a positive footprint on my life”, 68 per cent agreed that technology “improves my overall quality of life”, 63 per cent said they kept their phone close-by all day, and 52 per cent felt they were “connected to technology 24/7”. That is in line with what one would expect from the 17 to 35 age group. Yet, there are interesting differences between spa-goers and non-spa-goers. On the whole, non-spa-goers find technology less stressful and enjoy using technology more than spa-goers (see Graph 2).

Most millennial women prefer to book their spa appointments by phone rather than book online

Online engagement In accordance with this, the survey found that the Internet shopping phenomenon has not infiltrated the spa industry to the same degree as other industries. Further, overall, 40 per cent of spa-goers within this demographic prefer to book their spa appointments by phone, compared with 24 per cent who book

online. According to ISPA president Lynne McNees, “booking via phone – or in person – gives you more options to customise your requests, ask questions and explore all available options.”

The Consumer Snapshot survey concludes that, although millennials’ “love for technology is alive and well”, it’s surprising they – especially female spa-goers – are not engaging with spas online a great amount. According to the study, “if the industry is to continue to diversify, perhaps this is something to re-evaluate as spas endeavour to keep pace with millennials’ increasingly important wants and needs.” Indeed, spas should explore how they can enable spa-goers to obtain more information online and “customise” varying requests to a greater extent than is currently possible. Nevertheless, for some spa experiences, it is likely there will always be a need for human, individual, customised, professional advice. Upselling is certainly easier on a one-to-one basis, where the needs and wants of the customer can be explored in detail. Spas should provide customers with both – equally flexible – options. www.spahandbook.com

ReseaRch: NoRth ameRica Lessons for spas The survey looked at why non-spa-goers do not use spas and why the majority (83 per cent) of millennial spa-goers visit a spa less than five times a year and are classified as “infrequent users”. Cost is the top reason both nonspa-goers and spa-goers give for not visiting or not visiting frequently, and is particularly important to women – both non-spa-goers and spa-goers. Time is the second most important reason given. These two reasons are consistent with the findings of previous studies. Perhaps spas could consider even greater use of yield management? Reducing prices at quiet times might attract a wider audience and, potentially, boost the frequency of visits. Many spas have already introduced shorter treatments and selling times, rather than specific treatments, thus addressing the “lack of time” concern. Since these are consistent concerns, spas might want to explore other ways to address them.

not being familiar with a spa environment is a major concern for nonspa-going millennials

The survey separated “not comfortable visiting a spa” and “not familiar with a spa environment and/or spa etiquette”, which have been grouped together in Table 1. This is clearly a major concern for non-spa-goers. The researchers

noted that, since it is mainly men who feel uncomfortable visiting spas, “the industry would do well to address how millennial men perceive visiting spas … breaking down some of the myths and misconceptions around [the experience]”. It’s not just men who feel “not familiar” or “not comfortable” visiting spas: it’s a factor cited relatively highly by all millennial categories. This needs to be addressed by spas in their marketing, information and customer service and should be considered in tandem with spas’ technology strategy. The researchers conclude that this “could potentially open up an untapped spring of new patrons who were previously less keen on going to a spa.”

Further feedback The survey also sought views on what might enhance the spa experience and encourage greater levels of visitation. The availability of refreshments was cited most frequently – by 51 per cent 136 spa business HanDbOOK 2017 – 2018

Forging ahead ISPA’s 2016 US Spa Industry Study shows a healthy growth in revenue, spa visits and profit. Research author Colin McIlheney outlines the findings

he US spa industry showed continuing growth, profitability and confidence during 2015 and into 2016, according to the 17th annual International SPA Association (ISPA) US Spa Industry Study, conducted by PwC. The industry’s buoyant performance in 2015 was reflected in a 5 per cent growth in total revenue, along with a 2.1 per cent increase in spa visits compared with 2014. Total revenues passed the US$16bn mark. More than three in four

spas reported a profit percentage of 10 per cent or more, while the location count topped 21,000 for the first time since the pre-recession peak in 2008. A majority of spa operators reported plans to take their businesses forward in 2016. Drawing on the findings from a large-scale nationwide survey of spa operators conducted in spring 2016, the Industry Study provides a picture of the spa industry in 2015.

performance in 2015, encompassing five key business indicators. The ‘Big Five’ consists of the number of spa visits by clients, client spending per visit, revenues, staffing and profitability.

Forging ahead In 2015, the US economy continued to expand. The growth in the level of economic activity nationwide averaged 2.4 per cent in 2015, unchanged from the 2014 rate, with a corresponding rise in personal consumption expenditure, up by 4.7 per cent in cash terms. The story was similar within the spa industry. Total revenue grew by 5.0 per cent – up from US$15.5bn in 2014 to US$16.3bn in 2015 – driven by a rising number of spa visits (+2.1 per cent), combined with increased revenue per visit (+2.9 per cent) and expansion in the number of spa locations (+1.8 per cent). Visits reached a record 179 million. New spa openings exceeded closures by a margin of 360 in 2015, bringing the total number of locations up to 21,020 from 20,660 in 2014. This marks the first year that spa locations have topped 21,000 since the pre-recession peak of 21,300 in 2008. Clientele are spending more per visit too; revenue growth www.spahandbook.com

Interest from demographic groups including men, teens and millennials were cited as helping to fuel growth in the spa industry

Profitability remained buoyant in the spa industry across the board. Within the resort/hotel sector, more than three in four spas reported a spa profit percentage in excess of 10 per cent outpaced the rise in visits, with the average spend per appointment increasing from US$88 in 2014 to US$91 in 2015. Total employment remained broadly stable, at 359,300 in May 2016, compared with 360,000 in May 2015. However, a closer look at the data reveals robust growth in the number of full-time employees (+5.3 per cent) in contrast to a fall in part-time workers (-4.1 per cent). As of May 2016, the number of full-time workers (162,000) was slightly higher than for part-time employees (157,800). This is a reversal of the trend in recent www.spahandbook.com

years where the number of part-time staff was rising at a faster pace than the full-time workforce. Time will tell whether this development is temporary, but the increase in full-time positions suggests it could be a response to recent growth in demand. To accommodate, spas are boosting their employee hours. Independent contractor positions fell over the period from May 2015 to May 2016, from 44,600 to 41,700 (-6.5 per cent). The reduction in the share of employment filled by contractors reflects an ongoing trend dating from 2010.

Profitable performance Profitability remained buoyant in the spa industry across the board. Within the resort/hotel sector, more than three in four spas (76 per cent) reported a spa profit percentage in excess of 10 per cent for 2015, representing an improvement on the 2014 position, when 67 per cent reported a profit percentage over 10 per cent. The proportion saying they experienced a net loss was 5 per cent, broadly unchanged from 2014 (6 per cent). Excluding the resort/hotel sector, 76 per cent of spas reported a profit spa business HANDBOOK 2017 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 2018 139

Recent trends: from strength to strength While the previous 12 months form the primary focus of the study, this annual review also covers more recent trends and experiences, with spa operators asked about their performance during the September 2015 to March 2016 period. The proportion of spa operators reporting increasing revenues and visits was at its highest level since the question was first posed to survey respondents in the 2010 Industry Study. Such a consistent positive response across all spa sectors nationwide indicates that growth in the industry remains on a steady upward path. Three in four spas (75 per cent) noted an increase in revenue. A similar proportion saw an increase in visits (76 per cent), while 60 per cent said client spending was on a rising trend compared to the same period in the previous year. Almost three in five spas said that they had increased staffing levels in the past six months compared to the same period in the previous year.

When asked about their plans for 2016, 81 per cent said they would be adding or creating new treatment offerings. Complementing those plans, 61 per cent of spas said they would be introducing new product lines, and 58 per cent planned to create a new spa menu.

A bright future Despite rising labour costs, hotel spa revenue is showing strong growth, according to the latest edition of cBRe’s Trends® in the Hotel Spa Industry. mark Vanstekelenburg outlines the key ﬁndings

or the first time in 10 years, hotel spa department revenue grew at a faster pace than other sources of hotel revenue, according to the 2016 edition of CBRE’s Trends® in the Hotel Spa Industry. The report reveals that US hotel spa departments were able to increase their revenue by 5.6 per cent between 2014 and 2015. This compares

with a 3.3 per cent increase in rooms revenue and a 5.5 per cent increase in total hotel revenue for the properties that were included in the survey sample, for the same time period. Significantly, these figures mark the first time since the 2007 edition of the publication that spa revenue growth has surpassed rooms revenue growth.

CBRE Hotels’ Americas Research is projecting modest gains in rooms revenue for the next few years, as the US lodging industry operates at the top of the business cycle. Therefore, hotel operators will need to look at other operated departments – like spa – to accelerate total hotel revenue growth. At the same time, health and wellness is becoming an increasingly important component of everyday life. Though historically considered an exclusively high-end hotel amenity, the integration of

Historical performance In 2015, spa department revenue averaged US$4,284 per available room (PAR), surpassing the 2005 average of US$4,200 PAR, but below the 2007 peak of US$4,838 PAR. Spa department expenses averaged US$3,217 PAR, close to 2005’s US$3,220 PAR. The trend is similar for spa department profits, which averaged US$1,067 PAR in 2015, above 2005’s US$980 PAR and close to the 2006 average of US$1,090 PAR.

Spa catches up During the Great Recession, spa department revenue was hit harder

than other hotel revenues, extending the time needed for revenue to recover. It wasn’t until 2015 that spa revenue growth exceeded the pace of rooms revenue growth, signalling that the spa department is finally catching up in its recovery, following the 2008 recession. Spa profits have seen double-digit growth every year since 2010, with the exception of more modest growth in 2012. spa business HanDbOOK 2017 – 2018 143

Given the surge in labour costs in recent years, spa managers should be commended for growth in profits

Strong profit growth While hotel spa department revenue is showing relatively strong growth, hotel spa department profits are increasing at an even greater pace. In 2015, hotel spa managers were able to convert the 5.6 per cent increase in revenues into a strong 17.7 per cent boost in department profits. They were able to achieve such strong gains in profits because they controlled their expenses; from 2014 to 2015, the combination of cost of goods sold, labour costs and other operating expenses increased by just 2.1 per cent. Labour costs comprise approximately three-quarters of operating expenses for a hotel spa. Given the surge in labour costs that we’ve seen in recent years, spa managers should be commended for achieving such strong flow-through 144 spa business HanDbOOK 2017 – 2018

within their departments. In fact, it was a reduction in other operating expenses that offset the 5.8 per cent increase in labour costs and allowed hotel spas to achieve such a strong growth in profits.

A bright future Recent economic reports have indicated increases in retail sales, auto sales, building materials and health and beauty products. This is an indication that people are spending on themselves and bodes well for travel. Additional research shows that travellers are more mindful of their wellbeing when choosing their lodging. Hotels have an opportunity to take advantage of this trend, not just by promoting their spas, but also by offering other health and wellness amenities and services throughout the hotel.

As an increasing number of people are travelling, the demographics are changing, causing hotel companies to refocus their offerings to ensure they’re meeting the needs of their guests. Leisure and group travel are also on the rise, and hotels must strive to make sure the health and wellness needs of these different guests are addressed. Hotel companies are creating programmes – and even entire brands – with a focus on providing the consumer with the basics of health and wellness. The future looks bright for the hotel spa industry. n about the author: Mark VanStekelenburg is managing director at CBRE Hotels Spa Consulting Practice @CBRE

Background Biologique Recherche was founded by a French family of passionate skincare experts. Today, it is owned by Rupert Schmid, Pierre-Louis Delapalme and by the founding Allouche family. They remain loyal to the brand’s fundamentals, ensuring the transmission of its unique methodology and results-driven personalised approach.

Main products and services The company’s R&D team is driven by bringing unique products to market. One of the recent innovations is Seconde Peau, a treatment inspired by the medical processes used to treat severely burned patients. Biologique Recherche also provides spas with communication and marketing tools that help them develop their businesses.

USPs Biologique Recherche’s best asset is its methodology, which combines powerful products and effective treatment procedures with respect for the skin’s structure and physiology to ensure results. It took 40 years to build this rigorous, complex methodology and it can only be passed on through intensive training. The company’s hyper-customised solutions target a client’s individual needs and this

www.spahandbook.com

makes Biologique Recherche the brand of choice for the most discerning clientele. The manufacturing process is responsible in part for the effectiveness of the formulations as there is no mass production and every batch receives great attention. Biologique Recherche products contain a high concentration of botanical, marine and biological extracts – they account for more than 20 per cent in most products. The company chooses the highest quality active ingredients available and cold-made formulations to preserve their structure. Finally, to preserve integrity and decrease the chance of allergic reactions in the use of products, artificial fragrances are not used.

Background

Top clients

Bernard Massing founded the company as Madislor in 1976, developing innovative products for the hygiene market in the workshop next to his family house. In the 1990s, a customer from Paris asked whether it was possible for him to create sauna scents and the company began to develop expertise in essential oils and aromas.

Future plans

Camylle products for sauna, hammam and massage

Main products and services Laboratoires Camylle has developed a range of products based on essential oils and natural plant extracts for use in spas. They are designed for use in saunas, steamrooms, hydrotherapy tubs, whirlpools, experience showers, crushed ice fountains and traditional bathtubs, as well as being ideal for use in essential oils diffusers. Camylle also produces a range of precious oils for use in massage treatments and for perfume diffusion. They contribute a new, olfactory dimension to the wellness area. Fragrances include eucalyptus, orange blossom, pine, lavender, rosemary, mint and lemon, as well as Asian, Polynesian, Mediterranean and Oriental blends.

USPs We recognise that wet zones in spas are often underexploited, despite the fact they

www.spahandbook.com

represent the biggest area of investment. Enlivening and revitalising wet areas by introducing aroma makes them a draw for customers, thanks to aromatherapy. It is possible to organise special ‘aroma’ events which are delivered on a daily, weekly or seasonal basis. These events can highlight to customers the special properties of the oils, which can be slimming, soothing or uplifting. When these events are marketed effectively, they put the spa’s wet areas at the heart of the operation and bring them to life to create more customer engagement and interest in visiting the spa. They can also help to boost the spa’s retail offer.

Where in the world? Laboratoires Camylle has clients in Europe, Switzerland, Russia, Japan, Singapore, the US, Morocco and Turkey.

In 2017, Laboratoires Camylle will launch a revolutionary new concept which will enable the creation of an “olfactory identity” for spa treatment rooms.

Who’s who? Marc Massing, chief executive officer; Anne Lambert, sales manager.

What the clients say “For over a year now, all our centres use Camylle products in their Turkish baths. We welcome customers for a stay of 6 days and being able to offer a different fragrance in our hammams every day is a real plus. “We can enliven the bathing areas with the scents, so our clients can discover the benefits of these complementary aromas to their treatment. We have a very high client satisfaction rating since the introduction of these excellent professional quality products from Camylle.” Jean-Luc Pleuvry, director of operations, Groupe Thalazur SPA BUSINESS HANDBOOK 2017 – 2018 185

Additional products As well as the design and manufacturing of our heated marble lounge chairs and tables, we offer bespoke marble and natural stone-masonry services for the hotel, spa and residential markets.

USPs Based on ancient knowledge – and confirmed by scientific research – warmth is one of the most important sources of healing and preventative therapy available. Warmth is a long wave infrared and as well as the sun, it is radiated by the soil (mud therapy), by the sand (sand bath therapy) and by the marble and other mineral rocks (including hammam and hot stone therapies). Our heated lounge chairs combine the healing properties of natural stone with the therapeutic effects of long-wave infrared rays.

An integrated, controllable electrical system warms the lounger from within, the warmth radiating through the stone. This provides many health benefits – such as stress reduction, detoxification and the treatment of muscular and osteopathic injuries. The loungers use a variable-tilt technology, which creates the perfect inclination and delivers an almost zero-gravity effect – all with the body fully supported. A flexible, responsive three-zoneheating system ensures optimal temperature regulation and the loungers can be easily moved thanks to integrated castors. With an easy-to-clean surface, Fabio Alemanno lounge chairs can be used for a wide range of applications at spas, in hotels and in residential projects.

Lux Elements is able to produce individual concepts and prefabricated elements for health resorts and leisure facilities.

www.spahandbook.com

The manufacturing methods allow the production of round walls for curved or round showers

which makes it ideal for use in spas and wellness centres: due to the alkaline properties, the elements are mold resistant. A further strength of Lux Elements is the individual production according to customer requirements. There are no limits in designing. The modern and flexible manufacturing methods make it possible to produce large objects and diverse forms. On request the company can supply the static calculation, especially for very large objects.

Charmaine Lang, President & CEO

www.themadisoncollection.com

Background The Madison Collection was launched in 1999 by industry expert Charmaine Lang to provide quality, reliable and innovative products. From its headquarters in Miami, Florida, USA, the company works with leading hotels and spas around the world and is renowned for providing impeccable linens with an emphasis on operational use.

Main products and services The Madison Collection creates superior towels and robes, as well as bath and spa accessories that provide comfort, absorbency and durability for operator and client. By combining quality, lightweight terry and luxurious weaves, The Madison Collection offers innovative products to a global clientele. The company’s collections are well thought out to provide ease of use on-site. Towels and robes to be used at the pool and beach, sauna, spa and in-room each feature a different pattern, so laundry staff may easily identify delivery zones. This also allows for the simple separation of operating revenues for various areas on property. The Madison Collection’s products are washed and dried four times after dyeing, before cutting and sewing to ensure fibres are chemical-free, thus resulting in minimal shrinkage – under four per cent, compared

www.spahandbook.com

to the industry standard of 10 per cent. Because of the company’s superior cotton and sophisticated dyeing process, its products last more than 300 washes – and have been tested up to 527 washes.

USPs The Madison Collection goes to great lengths to provide partners with the finest products. Customers reap the benefits of the company’s environmental safety efforts. Created at the same factory since the company’s inception, all products utilise the best cotton (grade 5.5 - 6.5) and dyes. The Madison Collection takes its place in the industry – and the world – seriously. Its factory is one of the few where spinning, weaving, dyeing, cutting and sewing takes place in one location, therefore ensuring supreme quality as well as little to no environmental impact. The Madison Collection is also celebrated for its exceptional service and likes customers to help tell its story. One of The Madison Collection’s favorite accolades is that clients liken working with the company to the VIP attention received with private banking.

How many spas do you supply? The company distributes across the globe – to North, Central and South America, Africa,

Asia, Australia, Caribbean, as well as Richard Branson’s Necker Island and Moskito Island.

Top clients Ritz Carlton (most locales); One & Only Palmilla; Diamante; Cabo; Wynn Resorts (including Encore), Las Vegas and Macau; Condado Vanderbilt, Puerto Rico; Lizard Island, Australia; Cape Grace, South Africa.

Future plans The new Bordado towel will be introduced. It has been four years in the making and is set to revolutionise and set new standards in the industry.

What the clients say “The Madison Collection has provided 14 years of exceptional service. Charmaine’s word is her bond. “We’ve had towels remain in service through hundreds of washings. Their longevity amazes our commercial laundry service.” Susie Milus Marquez, director spa operations, Grand Hotel Marriott Resort, Golf Club & Spa SPA BUSINESS HANDBOOK 2017 – 2018 221

Background

In addition to very effective skin care products, RICE FORCE brings a new style of a service which embodies the traditional Omotenashi - decades of exclusive focus on luxury Japanese hospitality.

RICE FORCE is a high-end, moisturising skin care line from Japan. The company was established in Kagawa prefecture and has been manufacturing since 2000 in Yushin sake brewery – which boasts a legacy of more than 150 years. The cutting edge, deep moisturising skin care we produce is recognised by millions of customers.

Top clients

Main products and services RICE FORCE offers a complete spa menu of customised body care treatments, advanced facial treatments – using ancient Japanese massage techniques and patented active ingredient Rice Power Extract – and a wide variety of treatment enhancements. During facial treatments we focus on anti-ageing effects, relaxation and solving issues with problematic skin. Body treatments offer maximal relaxation, tension relief and amazing skin results thanks to the Japanese white rice we use, which is believed to have a mysterious power to beautify the skin.

be designed especially to cater to a spa’s specific concept.

USPs The beautifying power behind RICE FORCE skin care products lies with rice power extract, a natural ingredient high in amino acids gained by the fermentation process. Each extracted formula is numbered and categorised, and has different characteristics. Rice Power Extract No.11 has a super-low molecular weight, so it absorbs deeper into the skin where it improves moisture retention capacity. This function was certified by the Japanese government in 2001.

Digital Signage – so-called online posters – put products and services in the forefront using screens in the foyer, spa or restaurant. Digital Signage represents targeted advertising on-site and a last-minute push of available services – without appearing pushy. Hot Deals allow advertising of last-minute offers, online or on-site, with a fixed date. Hot Deals help fill empty schedule gaps, for instance in spas on hot summer days. Together with Promotion Codes, e.g. weekday discounts or birthday campaigns, Hot Deals round off the Promotion module by TAC.

It offers an advanced solution to manage reservations and runs on all operating systems without local installation.

Background With experience in technical medicine since 1969, Zimmer MedizinSysteme has become one of the leading European manufacturers for physiotherapy systems. Innovative cardiology, diagnostic, aesthetics products and software also enhance our product lines. Zimmer MedizinSysteme is the leading firm in cryo solutions, offering Cryo 6, Z-Lipo and Cold Sauna icelab -110 °C.

The treatment can either be offered pure, combined in spa menu packages, within fitness, sports and leisure packages, and even be part of medical spa offers. Ultra-dry cold air causes a tickling stimulation all over the body’s skin, while warmth exchange takes place mainly via convection. You will be surprised how different it feels compared to a cold water immersion exchanging warmth via conduction. Z-Lipo and Z-Wave from our Aesthetic Division are used together to aid slimming, while Z-Wave can also be used to treat celulitis.

Marine skincare brand Thalion has released the Mineral Booster, a new liquid care facial treatment, designed to provide a ‘shot of marine energy’ to the skin, for a smooth, plumped and radiant complexion.

The nail polishes feature Orly’s Breathable formula, that is permeable to water and oxygen, and allows nails to breathe. Practicing Muslim women have previously had to avoid wearing nail polish as it creates a barrier, which causes issues during wudu, an Islamic purification ritual where parts of the body, including the hands and nails, are cleansed with sacred water before prayer. The breathable formula allows water to pass through the layer of polish, making it less of a barrier to wudu. The capsule collection features five coloured polishes, in nude, berry, red, rose-gold and white.
