  1. How to Become a Professional Spa Therapist A spa therapist uses various massage techniques to make  the client feel relaxed and refreshed. Spa therapy is one  of the most popular therapies known for improving the  well­being of people. In recent times, due to the  increasing hectic life style, people are more frequently  visiting spa centers, especially on the weekends, to  pamper themselves and get relief from stress. This has led the massage industry to be on the search for qualified and trained spa therapists, particularly for spa therapists who  have qualified a spa therapy training program from a  recognized massage therapy institute.

  2. What are the duties of a spa therapist? 1. Build a soothing environment: Spa therapy is all  about making your clients feel relaxed and to enforce  this, you must first build a comfortable environment. This can be done by keeping the rooms tidy, playing some  soothing music, using aromas, speaking softly to the  clients and so on. 2. Maintain hygiene: A spa therapist must ensure the  maintenance of proper hygiene every time a client visits.  For instance: all the equipment must be cleaned properly  and sterilized after use, bedsheets must be changed, 

  3. towels should be washed after each time it is used and so towels should be washed after each time it is used and so  on. 3. Perform body and aesthetic treatments: A spa  therapist who has qualified a spa therapy program, is  supposed to perform body treatments like body massage,  wraps and scrub and also waxing. The treatments may  also include pedicure, manicure and facials. While  delivering these treatments, the spa therapist must  discuss with the client whether the amount of pressure is  appropriate for them and adjust accordingly. 4. Protection of privacy: When a client visits a spa  center, he/she expects complete protection of his/her  privacy. In other words, the spa therapist must know how to ask the person to wear appropriate clothes without  making him/her feel embarrassed. Also, while performing the therapy, the spa therapist should close all the doors or put down the curtains and expose only those parts of the  body that is being treated.  What do you learn in a spa therapy training program? A spa therapy training program in London or other  places, includes the following subjects: • Stress reduction • Relaxation techniques • Massage therapy techniques • Anatomy

  4. • Physiology • Ethics What are the required qualifications to become a  professional spa therapist? Just like any other course of study, you must enrol in a  recognized massage training school that offers spa  therapy diploma courses. The minimum qualification for  enroling into a spa therapy training course is class 12. What is the current salary of a spa therapist?  A qualified spa therapist has a greater earning potential  than an untrained one. Presently, the average base pay of spa therapists in London is £20,084/yr  (source:https://bit.ly/2JkBRBC) while the average  hourly rate is £7.90 (source:https://bit.ly/2MNZ9lH)  What are the benefits enjoyed by a spa therapist? Every career comes with minimum benefits. The share of benefits in a spa therapy career comprises:  A spa therapist enjoys a flexible schedule that  enables him/her to balance both work and other  responsibilities.  The working environment is a very relaxing one  and so a spa therapist benefits from working in  such a soothing ambiance. 

  5.  A spa therapist receives ample opportunities to  work in exotic locations like plush hotels and  resorts, cruise ships and many more.   Opportunities to improve skillsets are never at  end for spa therapists. They can attain various  skills and knowledge that would induce growth  and success in their careers.  Conclusion: Spa therapy is certainly a profitable  career provided you appear for a spa therapy  training program from a reputed massage training  school.
