The annual International Spa Conference – which this year attracted over 2250 spa industry and media attendees from 38 countries and about 200 exhibitors to the three day Las Vegas event held at Mandalay Bay - is an amazing way to learn about new products (50 new products launched this year); talk industry trends; listen to inspirational, thought-provoking speakers; feast from a buffet of new ideas; and mingle with people from all pockets of the spa industry.
One of my favourite things to do is attend the Expo to check out new products. There are so many great stories here. One new line I stumbled across is a collection of lifestyle clothing called EA Apparel.
We also met with with Gary Henkin, president of WTS International, the company behind many of your favourite luxury spas. He shared a few of his thoughts on spa trends.
And, Anne McCall Wilson, V.P. of Spas for Fairmont and Raffles Hotel International told us about the launch of Fairmont's new line of luxury, plant-based body products.
