National Franchise Plans Major Expansion in Broward and Miami Dade Counties
FT. LAUDERDALE, Fla., (May 3, 2016) -- Elements Massage™ (Elements), a national franchise known for providing the most customized massage in the industry, is expanding in South Florida, opening its fourth studio in Ft. Lauderdale on Thursday, May 5, at 551 N. Federal Hwy., Suite 700, in Flagler Village. Argentinian businessman Manuel Belfer has big plans to expand operations in Broward and Miami-Dade Counties over the next four years, where its competitors have numerous locations.
“They do massage and other things, but frankly, massage is all we do, and we do it better,” says Belfer, who manages hotels, food and beverage operations and real estate in Argentina. “Ft. Lauderdale has some of the best weather in the U.S., and is a growing community with an affluent and health conscious population. We feel it is an ideal area to expand a business dedicated to changing lives through therapeutic touch.
"Elements is 100-percent in the people business,” adds Belfer. “We don't sell any other products or services and provide a nurturing and supportive environment for employees, so our massage therapists can focus on what they do best, which is providing a high quality, customized massage to every client."
Founded on the healing benefits of massage, Elements differentiates itself from other massage studios with its meticulous attention to client needs. When clients book an appointment, key details such as the type of massage desired, specific pressure needs and the client's individual issues are discussed before pairing the client with the right massage therapist.
“When the client comes in, our therapists spend additional time to go over any concerns and areas to focus on,” saysBelfer. “To make clients feel safe, comfortable and relaxed, everything in the room is adjustable – the lights, music, even the therapist’s touch. We stand by our services and offer a very affordable and flexible membership in the Wellness Program.”
Elements’ membership program allows clients to receive regular, discounted monthly massage therapy services that can be shared with a family member or significant other. The membership is not a long-term contract and can be canceled with a 30-day notice. To celebrate the newest Ft. Lauderdale Elements studio, Belfer is offering a $49, one-hour massage for clients who schedule an appointment by May 5, and redeem their massage by June 5th.
Elements Massage™ is one of the fastest growing massage franchises in the U.S. The company consistently ranks number one in customer satisfaction* for its customized massages and continuing education for its therapists. The Elements Promise™ is the only guarantee in the massage franchise industry. The guarantee states that each Elements studio is committed to providing the clients with a massage that meets or exceeds their expectations or the next massage is complimentary.
“We offer free massages to all of our therapists and front desk personnel for their own self-care and to learn from each other,” says Belfer. “Therapists need to be treated well, because they work hard. Every time a therapist receives a massage they may learn a great massage stroke or a new way to help release a client’s muscle. Our front desk people also like to know about the therapist so they can do a better job of matching the client to the right therapist.”
The Ft. Lauderdale studio is spacious with a three-story lobby and seven dedicated massage rooms. Two of the rooms connect to provide couples massage. Massage modalities offered at the new studio include: Swedish; Deep Tissue; Hot Stone; Prenatal; and Sports massage with Aromatherapy and Integrative Reflexology upgrades.
The studio will be open seven days a week and welcomes walk-ins. To learn more about the Ft. Lauderdale studio and to schedule an appointment, visit www.elementsmassage.com/fort-lauderdale or call 954-237-1120.
