Essio Announces Spa Partnership Program

Westin among initial customers

SANTA MONICA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Essio today announced its Spa Partnership Program, which allows spas and salons across the country to incorporate Essio products in their treatment rooms as well as locker room showers. Essio is a unique and patented new aromatherapy system for the shower, which uses disposable pods to deliver USDA-certified organic essential oils into the shower water, thereby creating a relaxing and revitalizing experience.

“Now, spas can add the ultimate in relaxation by incorporating our simple, intuitive aromatherapy treatments for the shower. Essio transforms the traditional shower into a therapeutic and revitalizing experience that heals the mind and body.”

Spas can choose from a variety of six blends to offer their customers, from a lavender-infused Night blend to a eucalyptus-based Breathe blend. Each blend is designed to create a specific mood, based on the customer’s individual needs. This allows therapists to personally tailor the treatment to each client for the optimum spa experience. Once their treatment has finished, customers can also purchase Essio products for home-use in the spa’s retail environment.

Several spas have already signed up to be part of Essio’s program. “We are extremely excited about this partnership,” says Stacy Marcum, Spa Director at the Heavenly Westin Spa in Savannah, GA. “We are always looking for ways to delight our guests, and Essio aromatherapy for the shower fits our mission perfectly. We are also especially pleased that the manufacturer has created a retail extension of this new product, so that our guests can continue to enjoy the experience even when they leave us and return home.”

Aromatherapy itself is an ancient therapeutic practice that uses the power of plant-based essential oils to improve the mental and physical well being of individuals. Spas have used aromatherapy in treatments ranging from massage to baths since the first recorded civilizations of Egypt, Persia, China and Greece.

“Spas have always been the number one place consumers go to de-stress and rejuvenate,” said Essio CEO & Co-Founder Peter Friis. “Now, spas can add the ultimate in relaxation by incorporating our simple, intuitive aromatherapy treatments for the shower. Essio transforms the traditional shower into a therapeutic and revitalizing experience that heals the mind and body.”

Essio is currently selling in spas across the country and spas will be able to incorporate Essio into their treatments starting in early 2013.
