Les Nouvelles Esthetiques launched
in South Africa in October 2002 and we have walked the spa
road together with the spa industry from our very first day,
bringing information from the vast international Les Nouvelles
Esthetiques network which spans over 26 countries and has
celebrated success for over 55 years. We have brought
international trends, innovative ideas, up-to-date knowledge,
ancient and modern spa techniques and business know-how to the
industry, which has grown in front of our eyes.
|
|
Hence the theme of this year’s spa conference is Celebrating
Spa Success, as we appreciate the road travelled and more
importantly prepare for the road ahead.
