USA. Health and wellness company XpresSpa Group has opened two spas at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport’s main terminal.
One is company-operated while the other is franchise-operated – marking XpresSpa’s first franchise location. It was opened in partnership with health and wellness industry franchise operator Kevin Stutz, who is the master franchisee for The Joint Corp. The company manages five Austin locations while assisting other franchisees to enter the chiropractic business in Texas, Oklahoma and Arkansas.
XpresSpa Group CEO Doug Satzman commented: “We are so pleased to have opened two spas in Austin, including our first franchise location, as these spas reflect our broader strategy to selectively expand the reach of the XpresSpa brand through a strategic approach to development.
“Kevin has already built an impressive franchise business with The Joint Chiropractic and his XpresSpa franchise location reflects a natural extension of his commitment to superior customer service in the health and wellness space.
“While our growth focus for company-operated spas will remain weighted towards further penetration of existing, larger airports such as Atlanta, Philadelphia and Las Vegas, we believe there are also significant opportunities for franchisees interested in developing spas elsewhere. We are therefore looking for additional partners that seek to grow with XpresSpa.”
Stutz said: “Serving patients who are seeking all-natural pain relief is my passion and the moment I saw XpresSpa’s proven business model I knew that bringing XpresSpa and The Joint Chiropractic together under one umbrella provides great health and wellness services to the flying passengers in Austin.”
