About SWAS

The Spa & Wellness Association of Singapore was founded in 2004 in response to the need of an association to reach out to all sectors of the Beauty & Wellness Industry. Over the last decade, SWAS has grown with the Industry.

Over the years, the Spa & Wellness Association of Singapore has developed from an interest group representing Spas & Wellness establishments to a confederation of trade groups representing stakeholders within the framework of the Beauty & Wellness Industry. The association actively promotes the business interests of all stakeholders in Spa, Wellness, Beauty, Hair, Nail and associated Holistic Care & Service industry.
