VSP Summary
This multi-faceted project - spa, products,
laboratory, academy, and committed
therapists - is original and ambitious.
 Our mission is to create an environment that
deals with the causes of illness. We are a
model for a more comprehensive approach to
health and well-being that does not merely
focus on symptoms that are addressed by the
present spa industry and modern medicine.
 We feel our innovative spa concept will
draw a diverse group of individuals and
families who will be attracted to our proven
results-oriented approach.
 In preparation for the development of this
project, Don Reid, Ed Seeton and his family
have resided in Costa Rica and are intimately
connected to local construction companies,
the legal network, and architectural firms.
