| | Every year The Global Spa & Wellness Summit has an annual contest where they ask university hospitality students to imagine the spas of the future. This year's winners include a revolutionary spa for teens; a quiet, brainy spa with book clubs and classes; a green spa with gardening classes and community involvement; and a spa of the future inspired by the past. | | Spa of the Future: Defiant! Defiant! rejects the "cutesy, bubble-gum" vibe of the teen services in favor of a spa that combines "punk aerobics", wellness services, value-priced spa treatments, and an iPad-packed lounge. Members are welcome. | Spa of the Future: Mente Highly educated women 35-54 want a quiet, elegant place to unwind and relax while they exercise after work. Mente creatively combines spa, moderate exercise and intellectual enrichment in a civilized, social environment. | Spa of the Future: Greenhouse Greenhouse is a green spa that is less about indulgence and more about fostering care and responsibility for what is important. That starts with the "three Rs of Sustainability" -- Reduce, Reuse and Recycle. | Spa of the Future: ModerNature ModerNature takes its inspiration from the traditional Turkish hammam, where social interaction is part of the experience. "Through social interactions and wellness therapies, ModerNature allows guests to cultivate a balanced lifestyle." | | | | Spas Ads | | | | Featured Articles | | | | | More from About.com | | | | | | Bake Sale Bestsellers Make your next bake sale a profitable one with these irresistible recipes.
