With a plethora of spas around the Lower Mainland, it can be difficult to know which one is right for you. Some individuals choose a spa in close proximity to their home, while others look for deals that suit their budget, and then there are those who wish to find a spa that offers specialty services that can address their needs. So how do you locate a spa that’s right for you?
One-Stop-Shop Spas
Today, there are a great number of spas that aim to fit in a lot of services into one location. Although this works for some large box-style spas that are capable of the necessary manpower and traffic flow, our caution is that it tends to lose its personal touch and optimal customer service when it becomes a colossal operation. However, for those looking to spend a day addressing all their maintenance concerns, it could be the right one-stop-shop for you.
Specialty Spas
The alternate to an “everything-in-one” spa, are specialty spas that focus on a few key services they want to offer their clients. Whether those are anti-aging treatments, laser hair services, or even teeth whitening, these small pop up specialty spas are emerging at a rapid rate. Our word of caution is to ensure those running them are trained to conduct the specialty service they are promoting. Receiving cheap or convenient services could come at a cost to your health due to errors and limited experience in the field. So be cautious.
Boutique Spas
Boutique spas are a bit of a mixture of the above two. They offer a large group of services, and enhance those services with specialty treatments that they may hire a trained provider to come in upon bookings for. This is in-line with Azure Spa + Medical methodology. We provide a small staff with a solid set of training and skills, and back that up with a medical professional capable of administering treatments that require more extensive training. So you are still receiving the personalized services, without losing on the specialty treatments.

Our trained professionals will ensure your health and happiness are both addressed …so call us to book an appointment and see the difference a boutique spa can make. We look forward to seeing you soon!
