    more and more common, especially on the West coast. Some

    Client's Need Assessment
    In Roman times, the local spa was a focal point of the community and
    enjoyed by all social classes. This is still the case in some parts of Europe
    where spas are a part of the mainstream health care system. Although the
    American spa industry encourages the idea that spa is for everyone and
    should be a regular part of a healthy lifestyle, there is still a bias in the social
    status of individuals that attend spas. In the 1960s and the 1970s, the
    average American spa client was most likely to be wealthy, female, and
    overweight. Her goals for visiting the spa probably included weight loss,
    exercise, and pampering in the form of beauty treatments.
    The ISPA Spa-Goer Survey for 2003
    showed that the primary spa client was still
    female (87%) but has a middle to upper
    middle class income ($72,200 annual
    household income). The number of men
    attending spas is growing rapidly, and men
    Currently comprise 29% of the market.
