SOUND OFF
DO YOU EVER WONDER how your THIS MONTH’S QUESTION:
peers would handle a situation? Maybe you’re
curious what other leaders in the spa industry
have to say on a certain subject. In Sound Off,
we ask ISPA members from differing backgrounds,
countries and companies the same question and
see how their answers compare. “Which trends
are you most excited
to see develop in
2019?”

“We are interested in artificial
intelligence that is developing
in skincare. It looks at your
skin type, and provides you a
diagnosis.” “I’m excited about Wellness!
I love the idea of a holistic
approach to spa and beauty.” “I am most excited about the
trend with medical spas
offering select services in the
resort spa setting. I am
working on incorporating this
into a few of our spas.” “I am excited to see where
the spa world is headed in
terms of retail space.
Specifically, what’s the
average size of a day spa? Are
people opting to go with new
buildings or are moving
towards smaller footprints in
existing spaces?” n
