Professional Skin Care
Did you know men make up nearly half (about 47%) of spa-goers in the United States? According to the International SPA Association (ISPA) Foundation, male spa clientele have grown noticeably in recent years.
Men need skin care too. From manscaping to custom facials, they deserve the same pampering as women. As Philadelphia Style Magazine puts it, a gentleman’s skin is constantly “taking a beating.” Shaving, daily sun exposure and sweating all increase men’s need for skin care.
The benefits of spa treatments go beyond vanity. Spas provide rejuvenating services in a calm, peaceful setting that offers a break from everyday stress. “The number one reason both men and women visit a spa worldwide is to learn how to manage their stress. Men and women may deal with stress in different ways, but surprisingly, they both find spas as an outlet,” says ISPA President Lynne McNees. “As a global society, we are experiencing more stress than ever before and seeking alternative ways to cope. Visiting a spa gives you permission to pause.”
Below are three Eminence Organic Skin Care spas that are tailoring treatments for men:
United States:
Featured Spa: The Ritz-Carlton Lodge, Reynolds Plantation — Greensboro, Georgia
One of our partners, The Ritz-Carlton Lodge, Reynolds Plantation, created “The Gents’ Place,” a private room for men that features “a classic barber chair and a flatscreen television, where gentlemen can partake in shaves with old-fashioned steel razors, shoe shines, mustache trims, haircuts, and nail grooming” (American Spa). During a 50–80 minute service, guests can enjoy complimentary bourbon tastings, including the resort’s exclusive small-batch Woodford Reserve blend. Even the treatment names nod to the theme—options include the “Wild Turkey” (brow shaping) and the “Rusty Nail” (manicure).
Canada:

Named one of the “Top 10 Locations for Men’s Spa & Salon Treatments” in Toronto, Yorkville’s Novo Spa offers a range of services for men, including several waxing options, manicures and pedicures, and a 75-minute facial using Eminence Organic Skin Care products. — Natalia Manzocco, BlogTO
