Sanctuary Spa: Reframing self-care from a ‘guilty pleasure’ to a ‘pleasurable necessity.’

By
Southpaw
Date Launched

The Challenge

Famous for their pampering gift-sets, Sanctuary Spa wanted to reset customer behaviour and become a brand whose products are used more every day, ‘for me’.

The Unlock

Our Neuro-Behavioural method helped us shine a light on self-care, helping us re-frame it from a ‘guilty pleasure’ into a ‘pleasurable necessity’.


The Solution

Our #THISCOUNTS campaign highlights how self-care doesn’t have to be about unachievable yoga poses and instagrammable health retreats - it’s about simple, attainable moments of joy that anyone can experience.

The Results

Ranked No. 1 Brand in self-care category


"Southpaw have taken us into an exciting new chapter that firmly positions Sanctuary Spa at the top of the consideration list for self-care brands."

Peter Stocks
‍Head of Brand, Sanctuary Spa
