Environmental Policy -  We are committed to continuous improvement, prevention of pollution, and compliance with all state and federal regulations.  We will give preference to suppliers whose products have environmentally friendly attributes that maximize Post Consumer Recycled content, minimize toxicity and packaging or have any other enviromentally preferable attributes, with minimal sacrifice to price and delivery requirements. We are also setting the standard for sustainability practices for all spas as one of the seed spas for the Green Spa Nework and we have achieved the "Environmental Partner" standards promoted by the Vermont Small Business Development Center and the Vermont Agency of Natural Resources.

Cosmetic Recycling Program - Clean out your closets and drawers and take advantage of our cosmetic recycling program. Bring in any container of at least 1/2 full skin or body care product and receive $5 off a similar organic skin or body care product. We will recycle not only the container but all cleanser products will be used by our recycling company to wash their trucks. All other products will be recycled as hazardous waste since they most likely contain chemicals. There is no limit to the number of products you can recycle. We do not take lipstick but we will take makeup products. Containers under 1 oz. will not receive credit but we will recycle them.

The Strong House Spa is proud to be one of the founding Seed Spa members dedicated to bringing sustainable practices to the spa industry through the Green Spa Network. We have passed environmental assessments from the private sector as well as the State of Vermont and are committed to continued green initiatives throughout our facility.

We have been dedicated to organic products and services, green building practices and energy conservation since we opened in 1992. We view our spa visits as healing opportunities, as our mission statement states, in a safe and healing environment that simultaneously honors the patient and pratitioner. Grounded in wholistic wellness, being green is simply another way we can demonstrate how we support our mission.

We have on site well water with a PH of 7. Our waste water is also on site and undergoes yearly maintainence. We recycle all paper, plastic, glass, cardboard, packing material and have discontinued purchasing bottled water. We use only green cleaning and laundry products and are experimenting with new technology that will help to eliminate the use of all laundry products. We teach our staff to be aware of waste and think about ways to save energy and resources.

Part of the sustainable movement includes body and mind practices that enhance our life experience while contributing to environmental stability for a healthy planet. We hope that our facility will enable our clients to participate in this goal.

We invite you to share our mission and experience our spa.
