Synopsis
For advanced courses in spa management, holistic health, or as a special course in massage programs, the authors give a "whole body" approach to various spa treatments not found in any other book. The Spa explains a variety of spa treatments and describes their therapeutic effects on the mind and body of the client. Each treatment description lists contraindications and equipment needed, and guides professionals and clients step-by-step through procedures. Health care students interested in mind/body connection and alternative therapies will find the book useful in understanding the specifics of spa treatments, including benefits and cautions., Everything you ever wanted to know about spa treatments and more, can be found in the pages of The New Spa Encyclopedia. Beginning with a brief description of spa history and the current state of the industry description, the book moves right into treatments. From specifics on treatments such as what to expect, what to look for, and how each treatment benefits the mind and body, to cautions on when not to seek certain treatments, this is a complete delight for the spa enthusiast as well as the health and beauty professional.
