Green is in for spring. Well, it’s in all the time. It’s the green that’s proactively saving resources, making trash into treasure and building a more sustainable future. Hopefully you’re already a part of the green revolution. You may recycle at work, home and even carry a green reusable tote to the store. But wait, did you just go to the spa? You love your spa, but do know if they love the earth as much as you do?
We’re always focused on your well-being, but we can’t forget about the wellness of the earth. A happy planet is one that will keep us on it (so we can spa!). More and more spas have been getting eco-conscious in both their business practices and products, and we want to give some of our participating Spring Spa Week Event Eco-spas a big shout out and maybe a hug.
