The spa and wellness industry is set to become the next big thing in the health and medical sector. Spas are multiplying exponentially across Asia, Europe, and US and cover the whole range to include day spas, hotel spas, resort and destination spas as well as medical spas.
With strong government support and marketing strategy, Asian spas have become increasingly popular in recent years. The popularity of Asian spas in the international market is causing greater demand for trained Asian spa personnel in the international market.
"There's been a massive proliferation in the number of spas," says Gerard Bodeker, a professor at Oxford University Medical School and author of the book, Understanding the Global Spa Industry. "There's a huge awareness in global value and interest in Asian therapies, so Asian countries are now actively discovering and promoting their own health and heritage. There's an across-the-board revival of interest in Asia in indigenous health traditions."
Although spa industry in Asia is highly promising, the question is how do we professionally manage and achieve the industry's fullest potential to be able to compete on a global scale?
