According to the International SPA Association's Spa Consumer Snapshot Initiative Volume Three, 47 percent of today's spa-goers are male. "This is exciting news," says ISPA President Lynne McNees. "The number one reason people go to the spa worldwide is to learn how to manage stress. Along with spas catering to more men these days, men are becoming more comfortable with the idea of going to a spa. men are finally catching on to what women have know all along."
