Episode #23 is the first instalment of series of episodes on some of the things mistakes and missteps I’ve seen in spa design over the years.

And we’ll call this series...

Spa Design for Dummies.

This time - Climate Control.

In Episode #22 we consider what role entertainment could play in the Spa of Tomorrow.

While everyone else is focussed on spas as a place of peace & quiet, maybe we should think about spas as a more active place?

In Episode #21 I pose the question - Is Wellness Killing the Spa Industry?

Wellness is concept, not a place.

And if wellness is everywhere, then why do we need to go to the spa to get our wellness fix?

Episode #20 we discuss a new concept I like to call Attention Led Innovation.

Much of what we call product innovation is often little more than clever packaging in an attempt grab your attention.

Sports shoes, Razor Blades, Toothbrushes...Spa!

Episode #19 I think I've uncovered a hot new Wellness trend - Laziness.

From the 7 minute workout to Hilton's Five Feet to Fitness, we keep finding new levels of laziness when it comes to getting fit and well.

How can spas leverage laziness?

Episode #18 is kinda more of a macro conversation.

It's not so much about spas at the coal face, but more a discussion about wellness and how that can be leveraged as a destination marketing tool.

But just because you can...doesn't mean you should.

In Episode #17 - I continue my chat with Motti Essakow, the Founder and Chief Imagineer, Rythms by Design and Rythms House.

WELL Buildings, Clean vs Green, Sourcing vs Procurement and much, much more.

Check it out!

In Episode #16 - I catch up with Motti Essakow, the Founder and Chief Imagineer, Rythms by Design and Rythms House, to talk about responsible luxury in the hotel, spa & wellness sectors.

Eco & Green is yesterday.

Today it's Sustainable & Responsible.

In Episode #15 - We take a look at Spa Ratings Systems.

We all know about 4 Star or 5 Diamond hotel ratings.

But what about spas?

And what about a TripAdvisor for Spas?

Do we even really need all this stuff anyway?
