Wellness for Cancer is the global standard for spas and wellness centres, enabling them to provide personalised treatments – without such knowledge, treatments cannot take place as the short and long-term effects of medical cancer treatments can have a severe impact on the body and an individual’s well-being.

Executive Director and Founder of Wellness for Cancer, Julie Bach, said: “We want to recognise the education senior therapists have and build upon this knowledge with cancer specific

information that is adjusted

for each individual, because each individual is unique. “

ClubSpa General Manager Gemma Leafe, who organised the training, said: “Both myself and the team are concerned that we cannot offer a full range of services to guests, who are either undergoing treatment for cancer or are in remission. We really wanted to act on that.”
