ISPA Foundation reaches midway point of three-year video project
POSTED 07 Aug 2008 . BY Sarah Todd
The International Spa Association (ISPA) and the ISPA Foundation have revealed further details about the progress of their three-year video project.

The project is intended to document and preserve the history of the spa movement via a combination of personal testimonies, shared wisdom and predictions from a selection of key people in the upper echelons of the industry.

The footage will be used in a variety of different ways, including presentations to spa management students and creating a retrospective for ISPA’s 20th anniversary in 2010.

Five shoots have taken place since June 2007. As well as interviewing top executives, the film-makers plan to speak to a selection of spa directors, therapists and consumers. Details: experienceispa.com
