The right concept in the right industry

The massage and facial spa industry is fast growing and Hand & Stone is leading the charge.

Hand & Stone has brought what was previously considered luxury services to  the mass market and has helped fuel the explosive growth of an entire industry.

It’s not just a luxury either – twenty-three percent of massage consumers had a massage for relaxation/stress reduction between July 2013 and July 2014.* And Hand and Stone is more than just massage, we are a full service day spa that also capitalizes on facials and hair removal services. According to IBIS World, by 2019, massage revenue from franchised locations is expected to increase at an annualized rate of 3.4% to reach $3.2 billion.** But at Hand and Stone with over 250 locations in the US and Canada***, we have far outpaced the industry growth.

A Simple Business Model

One of the major reasons for Hand & Stone's success is due to the number of products and services it provides, outpacing everyone in the industry with:

• Facials
• Massage
• Hair removal
• 2 skin care lines

The Hand & Stone Massage Spa offers affordably priced conveniently located, top-quality therapeutic massage, facial and hair removal services. No other franchise competitor was designed to offer all three services at all locations. And our spa services are priced some 30% less than traditional day spas and we offer same day convenience for massage and facial services.
