After-Treatment Tips Because a guests’ beauty experience shouldn’t end after a treatment wraps up in a spa, spas are constantly looking at ways to encourage guests to develop a beauty routine at home. To help market its after-treatment products, The Hotel Hershey hosts a monthly educational event for its guests in order to provide them a deeper level of understanding and a personalized connection to its brands. “Each month a different brand partner will present, always with exceptional results, and a strong buy-in and commitment from our guests. Our team of technicians is also highly educated by our brand partners to provide the very best service, experience, and home-care advice and recommendations, for each and every guest,” Wing says. At Naturopathica Chelsea in New York, guests are encouraged to take charge of their health by combining deeply therapeutic experiences with the tools and education to continue their healing journey at-home. Naturopathica’s educational approach starts with helping guests identify the root cause of a concern, and then extends toward recommending products and rituals that can help address skin-care or health issues. “Since our therapists and estheticians value their role in the client’s healing process, product recommendations come naturally with the support of our Well-Being Ritual Cards, which are shared with clients post-treatment depending on their needs,” Close says. This link-sell with education makes retail both an integral and necessary part of the treatment experience. “Our hope is that clients will learn how easily well-being rituals can be integrated into their lives,” she says. n “Convenient and resultsdriven skin-care solutions are of top priority among busy women everywhere.” — SHIAN WING, The Spa at The Hotel Hershey The Spa At The Hotel Hershey upgraded its Chocolate, Cuban and Noche Azul collections, body treatments and retail products with a new all-natural signature product line, developed in partnership with TARA Spa Therapy.
