How To Throw A Spa Party
What Happens At A Spa Party

By Anitra Brown, About.com

A private spa party for bridal showers, birthdays and teens are one of the top 10 trends in spas.

The most popular treatments for a spa party are manicures, pedicures and massages. They are usually “express” versions of regular treatments, lasting twenty minutes or so.

The easiest way to throw a spa party is to find a company that specializes in mobile spa services. A spa party company creates a comfortable “spa atmosphere” including candles, spa music, robes, and slippers for your guests. They send experienced, licensed spa professionals who set up various “spa stations” with the proper equipment.

Rates are based on the number of guests, the number of treatments, and how long the spa party runs. Most home spa parties cost between $100 -$150 per person and include two or three treatments, and sometimes a gift. Ask whether gratuities are included. Some spa party companies also arrange catering and elaborate goodie bags.

Spa parties can range anywhere from intimate events for four people in your home to elaborate parties at offices, hotels, restaurants and conference centers.

If you want to do it less expensively, you can hire licensed professionals to come and give mini-services without all the extras like robes and slippers. A nail tech gives manicures and pedicures, a massage therapist gives massage, and an esthetician can give mini-facials and do make-up
