My day spa experience

[DeleraTwinkie]

Well, in the past we discussed spa's and I said I don't go t day spas because I just found it so much better to just spend a bit more and go to a resort spa.

Today I went to a day spa and I do still feel the same.

BUT..... I had two good services and the therapist was great. The building was very nice too with a Victorian feel to it. Some things I learned that I feel could help all of us in our practices:

1. water out of a glass, not a bottle. Nice Nice!
2. having a place to sit before hand and enjoy some tea.... NICE!
3. Nice size treatment rooms!

Some things that needed improvement:
1. Nice size treatment rooms but no place to put my stuff so had to use the floor???
2. walking into a business and not knowing where the heck to go.
3. having the owner or manager come at me with a thousand questions when I am trying to relax after my services.
4. manager or owner's reaction when presented with a coupon. More of that in a seperate post.

All and all, I had a nice day though. My skin feels smooth as a babies butt. My facial was good and I hope my skin calms down from it though!

Everyone has their own preference on this. I had clients ask for bottled water, so I went for it... I give artesian water, because it's pure and reliable, and I believe healthier than tap water... in glass bottles, which I consider a much lesser evil than plastic.

Where do you get glass water bottles? That is cool - I know a few people looking for that!

All clients have a glass of water with a slice of lemon waiting for them when they come in to my office. It's a nice touch that they really appreciate.

Also, I have a few clients who bring in a refillable, reusable water bottle that I fill up for them before they leave. That way they can take water with them, but I am not giving out plastic disposable water bottles.

I was thinking of making this a policy and offering it to all clients. Of course there is always a glass of water available after the treatment. But, if they want to take some to go I'd be happy to fill a reusable water bottle.

What do you think?

There are actually quite a few brands available in glass. I get mine from a local beverage distributor. Had to get a sellers permit to be able to buy from them (wholesale only) but the pricing is a plus

I can't find any. I can find glass bottles to put your own filtered water into, but none that come bottled in glass.

This place lets you search by bottle type: http://www.aquamaestro.com/search.asp

Just to get an idea of what's out there... then call local suppliers to see what they carry.

Interesting, thank you! I think my locale may have something to do with it the absence I find.

Our local HEB and Central Market stores have water in glass bottles. When I get a chance I'll pick up a few names for you.

And, here is a little website with some glass bottle info on it. http://bottledwaterstore.com/glass.htm
