Timed to Menopause Awareness Month and World Menopause Day on Sunday, October 18, the exclusive Meno “Pause” Facial® brings a deeply personal treatment concept to one of wellness travel’s most timely conversations

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla., Oct. 15, 2026/PRNewswire/ — As Menopause Awareness Month continues and World Menopause Day approaches on Sunday, October 18, InnoVitale Spa is bringing a new reason to visit Florida’s Gulf Coast into focus with its signature Meno “Pause” Facial®, a 90 minute, 10-step treatment created specifically for perimenopausal and menopausal skin. Available exclusively at the St. Petersburg spa, the facial meets a growing demand for wellness experiences designed around women’s changing needs and stages of life.

Founder Sinead Norenius developed the Meno “Pause” Facial® after navigating her own early and unexplained experience with perimenopause. Her personal experience inspired her to create a treatment that acknowledges a stage of life many women are only beginning to discuss openly. The Meno “Pause” Facial® name is federally registered and the treatment is offered exclusively at InnoVitale Spa.

“I created this facial because women deserve to feel seen during a stage of life that can bring so many unexpected changes,” Norenius said. “Now we are seeing more groups of friends book together. It is no longer simply a spa day added to a trip. For some of them, it is becoming the reason for the trip.”

The treatment arrives as wellness travel becomes increasingly personal. Elite Traveler identified hormone health as one of the wellness travel trends shaping 2026 and reported that more than 90 percent of luxury travelers actively look for wellness programs when booking a trip. Travelers are increasingly prioritizing longevity, better sleep, stress regulation and experiences centered on how they want to feel when they return home.

Travel brands are already responding to interest in menopause focused wellness. Carillon Miami Wellness Resort introduced its five day Inner Glow menopause and perimenopause retreat, while Canyon Ranch offers its M Power retreat centered on hormonal changes, movement, restorative therapies and expert-led education. These programs reflect a broader change in wellness tourism as travelers look beyond a traditional spa day and seek experiences that combine relaxation, education and long term wellbeing.

Menopause Awareness Month each October, and World Menopause Day on October 18, give that conversation a moment on the calendar and a natural reason to plan a fall getaway. For women planning a trip with friends, wellness itself is increasingly becoming part of the destination. The Meno “Pause” Facial® gives visitors to St. Petersburg an experience at the intersection of women’s wellness, intentional travel and the growing conversation surrounding perimenopause and menopause.

InnoVitale Spa opened in July 2024 and has earned more than 330 five star Google reviews. Its location in downtown St. Petersburg allows visitors to incorporate the treatment into a Gulf Coast getaway while experiencing a locally owned spa founded around personalized care.
