This is a one-of-a-kind Pregnancy Spa & Ultrasound business. No one else offers the range of services and products for expecting and new moms that we do.
There are lots of businesses that focus on the new baby, but how many cater to the expectant mom and her unique needs during this special time in her life? How many focus on making the journey of pregnancy an enjoyable and comfortable experience? That's what a Pregnancy Spa & Imaging Centre is all about.
A Business Focused on Meeting the Unique Physical and Emotional Needs of Pregnant Women and New Moms
- A variety of physical discomforts occur that require specially trained spa therapists for safe and effective treatment
- Hormonal changes cause unique skin care issues
- Pregnant women are more conscientious about the products they use on their body and they breath in the air... they need to be safe for life growing inside them
- They want an environment where they can feel comfortable with their bodies
- They want to share the experience of seeing their baby for the first time in a comfortable setting, with convenient hours, with qualified technicians and accompanied by their family and friends....not a sterile medical environment where they are limited to one guest and to weekday hours
So Much More Than Pampering
Studies Cited in OB GYN and Women's Health and Other Scientific Journals Show Massage Therapy is Not Just For Pampering... It Has Real Benefits When Performed by Specially Trained Therapist:
- Reduced anxiety and improves mood (increased serotonin levels)
- Better sleep.... something pregnant woman need for a healthy pregnancy
- Lower blood pressure
- Reduced levels of stress hormones (e.g. cortisol levels)
- Shorter labors with fewer complications
- Lower likelihood of a premature baby
- Increased conception rates for woman trying to become pregnant
- Reduced miscarriage rates for woman already pregnant A Big Industry No Matter How You Slice It
- There were 4,105,000 babies born in 2005 according for the National Center for Health Statistics.
- The average age of first time mothers has increased steadily for the last 30 years according to government statistics. This means that by the time they have a baby, they have more disposable income.
- The average American spends $912/year on spa services according to the Coyle Hospitality Group... and consumers are becoming more educated and developing an appreciation for high-quality services and skilled therapists.
- Massage therapy alone is a $6 billion industry.
A Pregnancy Spa & Imaging Centre Offers a Unique Combination of Services that Result in a Competitive Advantage and Higher Barriers to Entry
- Elective ultrasound centers can only service a pregnant woman once ...or maybe twice... during her pregnancy.
- Elective ultrasound centers don't have the same comforting environment and aren't as conducive to gift certificate sales.
- Mainstream spas don't cater to a pregnant woman's needs and certainly don't have the retail products she wants/needs.
- The combination makes it easy to develop a professional reputation with the medical community which leads to referrals.
