Education - the key to ongoing success
POSTED 25 Apr 2012 . BY Dean Fox
Since 1993, ESPA have pioneered the science of natural beauty with an unrivalled range of highly efficacious skin and body care products that are the first choice in the world’s most luxurious spas.


As our professional therapists have led the way in spa treatments, we understand that ongoing success is dependent on the standards of our education. Highly trained staff are vital to the running of a successful spa and critical to retail business, which is why ESPA provide all the breadth and depth of education necessary to deliver award-winning services worldwide. With an emphasis on meticulous attention to detail, both our theoretical and practical training is technically advanced.

All ESPA courses are taught by internationally recognised trainers who are vastly experienced therapists themselves. Our award-winning postgraduate Training Academy offers comprehensive and progressive treatment and product training in many modalities, covering facials, body treatments and massage, all tailored to specific needs in many cultures.


In addition, we offer commercial training for operational management and an ESPA specialist programme, as well as comprehensive business support, marketing and sales advice. All these services deliver tangible added value to our partners’ businesses, which may explain why many of our partners have been with us for many years.

To benefit from ESPA education and support, contact us on +44 (0) 1252 742 800 or email [email protected]

ABOUT ESPA

Recognised as global leaders in spa, ESPA successfully combines the design and management of prestigious spas across five continents with the creation of pioneering, natural products that are rich in heritage, texture and aroma. ESPA - an authority in its field – is proud to partner with luxury hoteliers, property companies and owners around the globe to create some of the world’s finest spas and equally proud to be a British company who manufacture their products in the UK. ESPA products are as unique as they are effective; they are tested each and every day by a highly trained and extremely professional global network of therapists based in 55 countries. ESPA’s award-winning, results driven products are loved by women and men alike, who benefit from their visible results for both face and body. It is this combination of expertise and rich spa heritage that creates a unique brand that has won over 125 coveted awards in the last 3 years.

ESPA is proud to announce the first of its cultural partnerships for 2012 with sponsorship of the annual Serpentine Gallery Pavilion. ESPA will be celebrating its British heritage throughout 2012 by embarking on a series of collaborations with British cultural institutions, artists and luminaries that showcase the best in design, expertise and of course, the unexpected.
