elements therapeutic massage, inc., a national massage therapy franchisor, has announced that it will debut a new store next month in Fountain Valley, Calif. The studio, located at 18303 Brookhurst St., will be the first franchise in that market for the fast-growing massage chain and is almost twice the size of a traditional studio in its national network of 77 studios.
According to the information provided, local residents Kelly Berman and Deb Greene were awarded the franchise agreement. They will be co-owners of the Fountain Valley massage studio and also serve as area directors to grow the brand to 20 more locations from Santa Barbara to San Diego. The Fountain Valley location will feature 12 massage rooms and offer six types of therapeutic massage from certified massage therapists: deep tissue massage, trigger point work, prenatal massage, hot stone massage, sports massage, Swedish massage and chair massage.
Kyle Gjersee, chief operating officer and senior vice president of elements therapeutic massage, said, "While the economy is struggling, our business is thriving across the U.S. as more people turn to massage therapy as a way to relieve pain and stress in their everyday lives. Our goal is to meet that need at a price people can afford. And we see a huge opportunity to do that for customers in Fountain Valley and throughout Orange County."
elements therapeutic massage is headquartered in Highlands Ranch, Colo., and owned by Fitness Together Holdings, Inc. The parent company oversees Fitness Together Franchise Corporation, a one-on-one personal training fitness franchise that began franchising in 1996, and elements therapeutic massage, a massage therapy franchise that began franchising in 2006.
