Spa Finder will leverage its relationships with 3,600+ day and stay spas worldwide to provide educational materials to spa clientele while encouraging spa aestheticians and therapists to be on the lookout for the disease\u2019s early warning signs and remind clients to visit their physicians for regular mole checks. The Spa Finder melanoma campaign is launching in May in conjunction with Skin Cancer\/Melanoma Awareness Month.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe idea is to position spa therapists, aestheticians and even nail and hair care professionals \u2013 all of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.videoshelf.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/picture-061.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-752\" title=\"picture-061\" src=\"https:\/\/www.videoshelf.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/picture-061-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.videoshelf.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/picture-061-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.videoshelf.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/picture-061.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>whom view and touch people\u2019s skin every day \u2013 as a new \u2018line of defense\u2019 in terms of skin cancer detection and education,\u201d explained Spa Finder, Inc. President Susie Ellis. According to Ellis, the campaign was inspired by the untimely death, from melanoma, of Alex Szekely, the former owner of the Golden Door and Rancho La Puerta, and one of the spa industry\u2019s true visionaries.<\/p>\n<p>As part of the campaign, Spa Finder will distribute thousands of its photosensitive \u201cI Will Reflect\u201d wristbands, which change color when exposed to the sun (reminding wearers to cover up), as well as wallet-sized \u201cI Will Reflect\u201d cards detailing five essential sun protection and skin health precautions. Additional components of the campaign include a dedicated melanoma awareness and sun safety site at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.spafinder.com\/melanoma \" target=\"_blank\">www.spafinder.com\/melanoma <\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re on the crest of a skin cancer epidemic and melanoma causes most skin cancer-related deaths, but those losses can be dramatically reduced through sun protection and early detection,\u201d added Ellis. \u201cSpas have an important role to play in terms of sun and skin health. Our goal is to galvanize all of the influence, expertise and resources spas have to offer, and make this a real \u2018spa\u2019 issue.\u201d<br \/>\nThe global campaign will be led by New York-based Spa Finder, Inc. and supported by the company\u2019s international subsidiaries, Spa Finder Europe, headquartered in London, and Spa Finder Japan, headquartered in Tokyo.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New York, NY (PRWEB) &#8212; With sunburn season on the horizon, Spa Finder, (www.spafinder.com), the global spa resource, is kicking off a multi-faceted campaign to educate global spa-goers about melanoma[&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[892],"class_list":["post-751","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-skin-care","tag-skin-care"],"aioseo_notices":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 -
