Tucson, Arizona – December 5, 2011 - SpaGroups, LLC is proud to announce the debut of its website, http://www.spagroups.com, a free membership platform and social network for individual spa-goers that helps its members find and join user-created groups to obtain discounts up to 50% on luxury destination spa travel.

For Spa-Goers by Spa-Goers
The SpaGroups website consists of an onsite blog where the SpaGroups founder reflects on the latest in spa travel, spa lifestyle, and personal discovery, in addition to offering informative sections on upcoming spa retreats, group deals, corporate retreats and workshops, and more. To ensure that each online visitor finds the spa experience that best fits her travel needs, the site is designed as a gateway providing descriptions and photographs of diverse spa resorts and retreat centers.

Although anyone can visit and benefit from the SpaGroups website, SpaGroups members are provided a password to access members-only sections of the site in order to view retreat details and join group trips. By leveraging group-buying power, SpaGroups is able to offer its members discounts of up to 50% at top 10 destination spas and all-inclusive spa resorts. Not only is joining SpaGroups free, it immediately connects members to an online community of other individual spa-goers who are also looking to obtain group discounts by joining other members’ spa retreats.

The SpaGroups website does something never seen before in the spa industry – it establishes a platform that empowers any spa-goer to create a customized retreat at the spa and arrival date of her choice. Other members can then join the spa retreat to help meet the spa’s required group minimum to obtain group discounts. This functionality not only serves social groups of spa-goers wishing to travel at discounted rates, but also assists corporate groups and workshop leaders desiring discounted room rates for their attendees. These retreats can be focused on anything from weight loss or stress reduction to the ultimate in pampering and relaxation at the world’s best all-inclusive destination spas and retreat centers.

Deconstructing the Myth of Spa Travel
Everyone deserves a lifestyle of health and wellness and SpaGroups aims to deconstruct the common misconception that the spa lifestyle is realistic for only a small percentage of the population by making the destination spa experience affordable to the average spa-goer. SpaGroups provides its members exclusive access to group discounts up to 50% and educates members on the secrets to obtaining spa travel deals.

Coordinating a group trip as a group leader for an all-inclusive, spa resort vacation is made possible and simple with the SpaGroups website. The SpaGroups website collects each group member’s registration and contact information and allows collection of secure credit card deposits. Group members can use social media to increase word-of-mouth advertising to organically market their retreat to friends via email, Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter. SpaGroups also partners with the group leaders by promoting user-created retreats to its own list of SpaGroups members to help the group meet the spa resort’s minimum requirement to obtain group discounts for all members. Once members join a retreat, they only need to arrive on the designated arrival date to obtain the group discount.
