Client’s Need Assessment
In Roman times, the local spa was a focal point
of the community and enjoyed by all social classes.
This is still the case in some parts of Europe where
spas are a part of the mainstream health care
system. Although the American spa industry
encourages the idea that spa is for everyone and
should be a regular part of a healthy lifestyle, there
is still a bias in the social status of individuals that
attend spas. In the 1960s and the 1970s , the
average American spas client was most likely to be
wealthy, female, and overweight. Her goals for
visiting the spa probably included weight loss,
exercise, and pampering in the form of beauty
treatments.
 The ISPA Spa- Goer Survey for 2003 showed that
the primary spa client was still female (87%)
but has a middle to upper middle class income
( $72,200 annual household income).
The number of men attending spas is growing
Rapidly, and men currently comprise 29% of the
Market.
