Owner Steve Long at Massage Envy’s first Oklahoma location at Pennsylvania Avenue and Memorial Road. BY Massage Envy, a chain of membership-based massage clinics, has opened its first Oklahoma location at Pennsylvania Avenue and Memorial Road.
The company’s concept is to make massages convenient and affordable. Members enjoy an hour long massage for $49 a month, with additional massages in the same month to be priced at $39.
With weekend and evening hours, there are more than 1,000 appointment times available each month.
Typically, massage therapists rent booth space inside a salon, but the chain operates similar to a spa or clinical setting.
“We want to give our clients a $100 experience for $49,” Owner Steve Long said.
What’s next?
A second Massage Envy is set to open Sept. 29 at SW 104 and Pennsylvania Avenue.
Longsaid the he plans to open at six locations in the Oklahoma City area, including Edmond and Norman, four in Tulsa and one in Stillwater, over the next couple of years.
Massage Envy focuses exclusively on massages, he said. Each location will employ about 25 massage therapists; they are offered health insurance and retirement savings plan through the company.
Scottsdale, Ariz. based Massage Envy Limited LLC opened its first clinic in 2002, and since has expanded to 462 clinics in 40 states, with 324 more in development.
