ABSTRACT
As spas move from pampering towards wellness, there is a trend to balance the high-touch aspect of spas with the use of high-tech equipment based on technologies applied to the monitoring, enhancing and maintenance of well-being. These technologies have arisen out of both conventional and esoteric science as well as traditional knowledge and while many of these technologies are not yet widely used in spas, as they become more accessible, and as spas become more specialized, it is likely their use will increase.
