BIO
Originally from South Africa she holds both the prestigious CIDESCO (Switzerland) Diplolmat and ITEC(London) certifications. A licensed Esthetician and Licensed Esthetician Instructor, Elaine has a passion for skin health and while speaking and writing about the "Theater of the spa experience" she is passionate about the power of the well trained spa professional and how their healing touch can affect peoples lives.

In my vast experience as an Esthetician and Educator I have seen first hand my client's frustration with their skin issues. My belief is that Men and Women should look and feel beautiful at any age. After years of research and testing on what I like to call the "living laboratory” (students, clients, patients), I have worked to improve the aesthetic world by developing products, tools and education programs focusing on the art and science of beauty enhancement.

I love the skin and work every moment of the day to find solutions to problematic skin conditions. I am relentless in the pursuit of more beautiful skin. This is my mission, my passion and my vision. Knowledge, science and art is in everything I do ... from education to product development.

The connection of skin to health and wellbeing is paramount to me and is reflected and energized in all my professional endeavors from writing to keynote speaking and spa business coaching.

While speaking, presenting, writing and training on the subject of "The Theater of the Spa Experience", I am motivated and encouraged when I see evidence of the positive affects on and changes brought to people’s lives. The power of a professionally-trained Spa touch is invaluable in the stress-filled world we live in. My desire for the health and beauty enhancement concept to be promoted at every available opportunity drives me forward in pursuit of excellence in my field of expertise.
