How many years have you been involved in the spa industry?
16 years
What was the path that led you into the spa industry?
In my late 30’s early 40’s, my spiritual life really came into forefront of my focus. During this time I became a Practitioner of Religious Science and was seeing clients for Spiritual Mind Healing sessions. Through this path I became a Reiki Master and Quantum Energy healer. I really loved the touch aspect of the work, so I got my massage certification. From that point, I began working at spas.
