Getting A Job In The Spa Industry

It seems there is a spa on ever corner and in every strip mall USA.  According to statistics, there are over 14,600 spas in the US to date.  That is up 6% from last year and almost 30% from 2004.

The breakdown is as follows:

11,700+ day spas

1350+ resort and hotel spas

980+ medical spas

430+ club spas

80+ destination spas

50+ mineral spring spas

Most clients say they go to the spa to relieve stress.  Since stress can increase your risk for cardiovascular disease, which claims over 870,000 lives per year according to the American Heart Association, the spa is a good and healthy option. 

Today consumers can find lifestyle spas that focus on healthful menus, medical spas for weight loss or chemical peels or destinations spas that focus on treatments from a particular culture.  There are even green spas devoted to environmentally sustainable facilities and practices.

This growth is also good for job seekers.  As of summer 2007, there were more than a quarter million people working in the spa industry on both a full-time and part-time basis.  Most spa jobs require training but programs are short in duration and are affordable in price.

So do your homework and see what training you need for your trade of choice and how to get it as quickly as possible.  Consider which spa setting would be the best fit for you personally and log onto SpaandSalonJobs.com and post your resume today!!
