With Murad, Massage Envy Spa customers benefit from facials and skincare products designed by one of the world's foremost leaders in skin health. 

Over the next several years, Massage Envy is seeking to expand across the country with Massage Envy Spa leading the way in these development goals.  To fuel this growth, the company is looking for specific franchisee candidates who have the ability and the desire to learn and follow a system that ensures value and customer satisfaction. Qualified franchisee candidates should have business sales or management experience, but do not necessarily need to have a massage therapy or spa operations background.  They also should possess a minimum net worth of $500,000 and liquid assets of at least $150,000. Massage Envy and Massage Envy Spa franchisees can expect their initial investment to range from approximately $352,000 – $569,000, including the franchisee fee.
