The New Age Spa Institute holds the unique distinction of being the only internationally accredited institution capable of offering post-graduate estheticians two distinct pathways to attain the Beauty Therapy Diploma. This dual-path approach ensures that each esthetician can choose the path best suited to their needs and career aspirations.
