Spring is the perfect time for a refresh in and out of the treatment room. The warmer weather draws in guests that are looking to leave winter behind and get a breath of fresh air figuratively and literally. You, as the spa pro, have a unique opportunity to capitalize on this need and equip your spa with products and services that offer rejuvenation.
Before we get into how our March issue can help you with that, we have a big "refreshment" of our own. WellSpa 360 is officially moving from 12 issues to eight for the 2025 year. While this is a small reduction in the frequency of magazines, it is a reset that will only boost the quality of our content month to month. There are a few minor changes to the schedule that you can expect: The April issue will be published as normal; we will be combining the May/June and July/August issues; we will go back to monthly magazines for the September and October issues; and we will close out the year with a bang with a combo November/December magazine.
Now that you know what to expect for the rest of the year, here's what you can expect in our March issue. This month we cover major wellness sectors like massage and salt therapy, along with advancements in software for spa business owners. We get into the nitty gritty on where these therapies are heading, and what that means for spa pros in articles that cover all the top massage oils and tools, a deep dive into the benefits of salt therapy and how to integrate it into a spa effectively and more.
With massage being a major theme for the March issue, I thought it was only fitting to share my go-to body products. Here are my editor picks for body-centric items that are perfect for your retail or spa services.
