Scotland's James Watt College launches new training spa

Scotland's James Watt College has launched The Eden Spa at its Finnart Campus in North Ayrshire, following a major refurbishment, where students can train in industry standard facilities.

The spa includes 22 treatment beds, separate relaxation areas, a dispensary and a full reception and waiting area to give customers a professional experience.

The spa is open to the public with a range of dry spa treatments available, including massage and muscle therapies.

Curriculum manager and make-up artistry lecturer at the college, Morven Aikmen said: "We decided to go for a full refurbishment of the department because many of the facilities were spread across the college and some areas were becoming a little tired."

The Salon, also located on the Finnart Campus, provides hair styling, facials and nail treatments.
