So let's talk about a full day together, but not with me, but just with you. What happens at a full day spa with you at your establishment?
Nita Gutierre 3:01
Let me bring you back. When I started my first business in Canada 20 years ago, I'm from the wellness already, working spa for many years. Move to Canada, you know, to build new life, find love, get married. Sure. Move to the city and want to start the business, right? I went to work in different spa. But what I found out is missing. missing the warmth, the culture, the journey, the experience. And I would like to bring the little piece of Thailand to the community where I work in Vancouver. I said, I want to build a spa that offers the warmth, that you feel like you're coming home, Like visit family and friends, the high hospitality, good quality service. And then the first step that you're coming in, I want to feel like a journey.
Nita Gutierre 4:01
I want to transport you to Thailand without getting on airplane. I think, okay, the first step, they just transport to Thailand. After that, okay, we need to get five senses to take care of the sight, the sound, the touch. the taste and the
Ray Gutierrez 4:23
The frequency, the smell, yeah.
Nita Gutierre 4:25
Yeah, the smell and everything. And I said, okay, I have my own. We have custom music. We build it up for ourselves. I want the music to bring them in somewhere else. As soon as you step in, the music just brings you down.
Ray Gutierrez 4:43
Sure.
Nita Gutierre 4:44
The calm, the flow with the music, it follows with the heartbeat. We're flowing in. flowing out. And then there's a Thai instrument in it because you've been to Thai spa, you have that.

How did the founder start Sabai Thai Spa with limited resources?

Nita Gutierre 4:58
And the smell of the Thai herb, the lemongrass that just hit right in your senses and then just bring you down. Even before you start the treatment, you already feel calm and relaxed.
