The spa industry over the last 5 years has shown tremendous growth, not only in the number of spas, but also in the diversity of spas and spa therapies available. This growth has resulted in the necessity to define and unite the spa industry, and ensure a consistent quality spa experience for the spa visitor.

The India 's Spa Industry is relatively young by global standards, given that the most spa facilities are just over a decade or two old. Established and emerging spa businesses need to constantly improve their business and management skills, keep up with new changing trends within the industry, and develop good business contacts and partnerships. Access to resources are needed that can assist role players in market research, product to market development, and improving industry standards, professional training and education.
