Editor’s Note
Welcome to the Les Nouvelles Esthetiques Spa Conference 2025, themed “The Business of Wellness.” This year’s theme explores the vital intersection of wellness philosophy and business strategy, as the industry evolves to meet the growing demand for holistic, personalized experiences.
Today’s spa professionals face the challenge of not only offering exceptional treatments but also building efficient, sustainable businesses. This conference provides a unique platform to examine how wellness enterprises can align with modern consumer expectations—emphasizing mental, physical, and emotional well-being—while also driving growth and profitability.
Key topics include wellness marketing, customer personalization, building loyalty, and the integration of technology. The importance of team engagement and leadership will also be explored, recognizing that a motivated workforce is central to delivering consistent, high-quality service. Through expert-led discussions and interactive panels, attendees will gain valuable insights to elevate their businesses in a competitive marketplace—without compromising on the core values of wellness.
