A NOTE ON CORONAVIRUS

As the COVID-19 virus outbreak spreads globally, MAI DAY SPA is taking extra steps to ensure that our staff and customers remain safe at all times.

Our rooms have high air volume and that air is refreshed after every session. Our surfaces are cleaned throughout the day, right down to our EFTPOS machine.

We follow WHO-recommended hand washing practices between treatments to eliminate the chance of manual transmission. Our therapists wear masks during treatments involving prolonged close contact and the possibility of vapour exchange. If you'd like a face mask at any stage, please ask.

We already employ rigorous hygiene practices around clean linen and foot baths, using robust disinfectant techniques to keep our customers safe.

As a further safeguard, we’ll ask you to wash your hands before your appointment begins.

Unfortunately we are unable to offer treatment to anyone who has arrived in New Zealand within the last 14 days, is displaying flu symptoms, cough or fever, or is otherwise required to self-isolate. Thanks for your understanding.

So far there’s a growing number of travel-related cases of COVID-19 in New Zealand, along with some unexplained ones that may suggest incipient community spread. We're following developments and remaining vigilant in the interests of our customers and staff. We will respond responsibly to any escalation in the current alert level around COVID-19. Your safety comes first.

Mai Day Spa welcomes Chedsuda to our team!

A warm welcome to Chedsuda who’s joined Sutaphat on our crew, after a gruelling flight from Bangkok via Manila! Jet-lag aside, Chedsuda is a massage therapist with international experience in Thailand and China. She's here to study English in New Zealand, and is able to work limited hours. Trained by the same Isaan expert teacher as Sutaphat, Chedsuda is a specialist in traditional Thai massage and deep tissue.

Mai Day Spa earns Living Wage Aotearoa accreditation

Mai Day Spa Ponsonby has joined the Living Wage movement, recently receiving accreditation from Living Wage Aotearoa, and leading a push for better conditions in the beauty and day spa sector.

We'd heard anecdotes, and had some personal experience, of day spa and massage operations with a revolving door of vulnerable migrant workers. We felt we could do better. So we set ourselves the objective of becoming not just a fair minimum wage employer, but upping our game to pay our staff the Living Wage rate or better.

We think it’s better for our business, and better for everyone, when people can afford the necessities of life - and the odd indulgence!
