VISIT ANNE BRAMHAM INTERVIEW FOR A CLOSER LOOK AT ASTECC. Why should a property/individual consider ASTECC training?As the popularity of the luxury spa continues to grow the demand for highly qualified spa therapists increases. Trained and educated in all aspects of spa, ASTECC therapists are able to confidently implement individualized, result oriented spa treatment programs. This highly individualized approach reflects the demands of an ever discerning spa clientele. How is ASTECC different from other training providers in the industry? ASTECC provides comprehensive, integrative training in three major disciplines – Thermalism, Soft Tissue Therapies and Chemical Elements. Practical training is complemented by an in depth study of the body’s physiological response to treatments including fluid dynamic and transportation, neural responses, and the study of the chemical interaction between spa elements and body types. Must properties/individuals commit to the entire ASTECC curriculum? No, but one of the primary benefits of an ASTECC education is the comprehensive nature of its curriculum and training in all disciplines provides a thoroughly integrated approach to the art and science of spa practice. Many properties choose to train in one or two modalities at a time and schedule future classes as time permits. Pre-opening properties often train in ASTECC inspired menu services, choosing to continue training in the ASTECC curriculum after opening. Circumstances vary but the goals are always the same: to train and educate.
