INTRODUCTION
Why write a continuing education course for massage therapists about spas? According to the International SPA Association (ISPA, www.experienceispa.com), spas in the United States alone are a $12.3 billion dollar industry, and according to a report released by the Global Spa Summit (USA Day Spa Market 2010, www.globalspasummit.org), half of all spa treatment revenue in the United States comes from massage services. We’re talking about a lot of massages (and massage therapists) here.
A kinship exists between spas and massage: The history of the modern spa can be traced back to ancient times, much like massage. In addition, like massage, spas have gone through many metamorphoses over the centuries, and regional variations can be seen
