Zen Massage

Low investment

Low monthly overhead, revolutionary, unique & positive relationship with massage therapists and staff

Simple build out: reception area and 8-14 small rooms

Concept can operate in relatively small footprint 1800-2200+ square feet

Usually ramps up quickly

Compelling alternative to expensive spas that charge double or triple the retail price for a similar service.

More and more people are recognizing the benefits of therapeutic massage. Historically it has not been affordable to the masses until now

The corporate center started over 3 years ago and currently performs over 250 massages/week.

Not usually difficult to recruit staff; go directly to schools. Therapists find the concept refreshing and fair.

Last year in 2007 the corporate center generated about $470 k in gross revenues

As a Zen Massage center franchisee you will carry little to no inventory, invest a minimal amount of money and be the first in many cases in your market with the concept that everybody’s talking about.

THE MASSAGE INDUSTRY

Industry statistics:
According to The American Massage Therapy Association

Doctors and consumers are increasingly turning to massage as an adjunct to regular health practices

The Spa industry employs almost 300,000 full-time and part-time people and is growing at an annual rate of 20% each year.
