Premier Health and Wellness Day Spa Entering New Development Era Bringing Affordable Luxury and Resort-Like Experiences Closer to Home

DENVER — For years, Spavia has been reinventing the neighborhood day spa experience, delivering result-driven treatments to help guests relax, recenter and renew.

Guided by a vision to make a positive difference in the world one guest at a time, the premier health and wellness day spa has earned tremendous acclaim since its inception in 2005, for offering a blend of affordable luxury amenities with a world-class environment.

Today, the high-end day spa retailer hosts more than 50 locations stretching across vibrant cities such as Denver, Los Angeles, Chicago, Dallas, Boston and Orlando. As the brand continues to grow nationwide, Spavia is entering an ambitious franchise development era with goals to reach 200 locations in the next decade. Leveraging its scalability and leading position in the day spa industry, Spavia is placing an emphasis on additional major metropolitan areas across the country with an initial focus on cities throughout Arizona and Texas. Development plans for eight new day spas are already underway as aspiring franchisees continue to invest in a concept that’s unmatched in the luxury spa space.

In conjunction with the Spavia team’s commitment to growth is their dedication to making a positive difference within the communities they operate. Through the Spavia Cares program, every local day spa actively partners with individuals and organizations, giving back through a variety of fundraising, volunteering and donation efforts to support community development, education, health, human and civil rights, and animal welfare. By making these meaningful contributions, Spavia ensures that each guest, team member and franchise owner has a profound sense of fulfillment that comes from doing good for others.

“As we take this pivotal step in our growth journey, we’re not just expanding…we’re continuing our legacy of offering affordable luxury with a pathway to a successful wellness journey for our guests,” said CEO and Founder of Spavia Marty Langenderfer, who created the brand alongside his wife Allison, Spavia President. “We have a relentless focus on providing an exceptional experience with operational excellence, and franchisees are drawn to that unwavering commitment, as well as our philanthropic culture. We’re proud to welcome fresh faces to our franchise family and continue helping our existing franchisees develop into new territories, all while having a positive ripple effect in our communities.”

To reinforce its national franchise growth efforts, Spavia is continuing to invest in its C-suite by welcoming seasoned marketing and operations executives who will add to the leadership team’s franchise expertise and combined 100 years of day spa experience. Similarly, the brand is debuting new skincare treatments such as Dermaflash, maintaining its reputation for providing result-driven, yet trending treatments to have guests leave relaxed and renewed. In the months to come, Spavia will launch an additional, innovative spa concept targeting Gen Z and Millennials. The smaller footprint SWAY by Spavia will offer a revolutionary new design, lower investment opportunity tailored to entrepreneurs wanting to break into the lucrative health and wellness space.

Spavia offers guests a rich assortment of treatments and the chance to customize spa experiences with serenity aesthetics carried throughout the day spa. Complementing this experience, Spavia provides a range of retail products that support philanthropic endeavors, all while offering a diverse pricing structure to cater to a broad audience.

Strategically positioned within local communities, guests can indulge in monthly treatments, luxuriate in plush robes, find tranquility in retreat spaces, or shop top-tier retail offerings, creating the ultimate destination for those seeking relaxation, recentering and renewal conveniently within reach.

“Our extensive expertise in guest experience and branding ensures that every Spavia location embodies our core values, making us the top choice for those seeking relaxation, recentering and renewal within their local communities,” said Allison. “When you step through Spavia’s doors, you’re not just entering a day spa; you’re immersing yourself into a world of luxury and well-being, providing result-driven treatments that are affordable and accessible to all on a daily basis.”

Aside from exceptional guest experiences, the Spavia standards of excellence for franchisees come from a national training team with expertise in day spa treatments, guest care, team training, marketing, construction and personal development. Every Spavia location adheres to the same standards of excellence to give guests a 5-star experience.

The ideal candidate for a Spavia franchise is someone who embodies a passion for wellness and a commitment in delivering exceptional guest experiences. This individual should be a forward-thinker and possess strong people skills and management experience, as they will be at the forefront of nurturing a culture that fosters relaxation and well-being. With a strong belief in the power of accessible luxury, Spavia franchisees are positioned to flourish within a supportive network of like-minded individuals who strive to make a meaningful difference in their community.

GREENWOOD VILLAGE, Colo. — Spavia Day Spa’s core value and mission statement is to make a positive difference and give back to our communities. Spavia Cares is core to their every day, but Spavia makes a concerted effort each year in giving back to their communities. Last year, the Spavia community donated spa treatments to first responders and healthcare workers who were serving their communities amid the ongoing COVID-19 national emergency. This fall in our efforts to give back to our communities with Spavia Cares, there was a 100% participation from all 52 open locations.

The National Team held a give back program where locations could donate a percentage of proceeds to local charities from the sales of two treatments followed by a corporate match. Locations also gave back through hosting fundraisers and volunteering to organizations across a broad spectrum of categories. Donations and volunteering went to organizations such as supporting community development, education, health, human and civil rights, and animal welfare.

“Making a positive difference in our communities is vitally important to making change. It starts in our community, it starts with us. There is nothing better than to be a part of doing good for others. It is so beautiful to see such dedicated owners and teams supporting their communities,” says Founder, Allison Langenderfer.

Spavia Maple Grove had the highest donation among the locations that participated in the Spavia give back program. Their team donated to Maria’s Voice, a local nonprofit that was formed to honor the life of Maria Pew whose life was taken by domestic violence in April 2020.

“Thinking back to when I first heard of Maria’s story in the height of the pandemic, how eye-opening it was that this happened in our own backyard here in Maple Grove. I started following Maria’s Voice. I learned the sad truth that this is much more prevalent in our society than I could have ever imagined,” said Cristina Nolte, owner of the Maple Grove Spavia in Minnesota.

“At Spavia, it is important to give back to our communities and help others,” Cristina continues. “It is core to our values and mission statement as a company so I knew that we wanted to help but was not sure exactly how. After working with the founders of Maria’s Voice, we decided that we can help by becoming an empowered partner of Maria’s Voice making educational materials available to our employees and by raising general awareness to all those in our network and community.”

DENVER — Spavia, an innovative leader in affordable luxury spa experiences, is donating spa treatments to first responders and healthcare workers currently serving communities amid the COVID-19 national emergency.

“In alignment with Spavia Cares and our mission to make a positive difference in the world, one guest at a time, our objective is to provide first responders and healthcare workers an opportunity to relax, re-center, and renew,” said president Allison Langenderfer. “Community involvement and giving back have always been of great importance to Spavia. It is our way of honoring their heroism on the front lines and expressing our gratitude.”

At many locations, Spavia members are actively donating their own monthly treatments, including Spavia’s premier 60-minute massage and facials. Members and guests are also purchasing and donating Spavia gift cards. A number of franchise owners are personally matching these donations.

At Spavia’s Sparta, New Jersey, location owned by Leslie Martin, more than 100 members have already donated monthly membership treatments. Mark and Bridget Chandley, owners of Spavia in Naples, Florida, will match 200 donations. 

Paul Groshko, owner of the Lincoln Park Spavia in Chicago, Illinois, is personally matching 100 donations as well. Spa treatments and gift cards will be distributed to the Chicago Police Department and Northwestern Memorial Hospital.

“I hope we can help alleviate their stress,” said Groshko. “I know we can renew their bodies and their spirits in the little ways that are made possible during a session here at Spavia. We want to be able to provide an exceptional experience for them, and to help our front line individuals come back stronger and healthier than ever.”

Merirae and Randy Tackett, owners of Spavia in Reno, Nevada, are also personally matching 100 donations.

All donations will be collected and distributed to local hospitals, fire departments, and law enforcement agencies. Currently, 551 spa treatments and gift cards have been donated so far across fifteen Spavia day spas. Donated spa treatments and services will be distributed to first responders and available for redemption once Spavia re-opens its doors to the community.

DENVER — Spavia, a renowned innovator of spa experiences, is reshaping the spa market once again by announcing the launch of Spavia 2.0.

In addition to revamping spa design, music, and scents within current locations, Spavia 2.0 is also proud to announce a total revitalization that is centered on three destination themes: Caribbean (ocean), Aspen (mountain), and Napa (wine country). These three themes will be included in all Spavia franchise locations opening in late 2020. They will provide guests with an immersive, multi-sensory spa experience that transports them to a unique visual destination as soon as they enter the spa.

Allison Langenderfer, founder and president, says, “The moment a guest walks through the door, they begin a visual journey surrounded by the sights, sounds, and smells of an iconic destination.” The scents, specifically, will be customized to the season in which guests visit Spavia, further enhancing the guest journey. Langenderfer continues with, “Each of the sensory experiences applied to a theme has been curated to ensure continuous delivery of the exceptional Spavia experience.”

Spavia’s goal is to have the right balance of design and technology in order to elevate a guest’s multisensory journey.   Music will be leveraged as an instrumental component to the Spavia 2.0 launch, as playlists will be optimized to sync well with the smells and visuals used in a destination theme.

“Each guest experience at Spavia is a journey,” says Langenderfer. “Our goal at Spavia is to provide each guest with the opportunity to relax the mind, recenter the body, and renew the soul. Spavia was founded on connecting community, human connection and making a difference with each and every guest.” With these fundamental changes to the design and the guest experience, Spavia 2.0 makes every guest interaction a moment to remember.

DENVER — The innovative team at Spavia is pushing the industry forward once again as the national franchise announces updates to the brand along with the reveal of a new spa brand targeting the millennial market.  The new look and feel, colloquially known as spavia 2.0, will be revealed on February 20, 2020 along with the new brand concept from the company.

After a nationwide search and intensive vetting, the Spavia team integrated the best creators and designers in the country to create new and original work that pushes the industry forward. At its core, Spavia 2.0 is focused on further improving the guest experience to create an environment that rejuvenates the body and soul.

“We’ve identified a continuing need to fill a market gap by delivering a higher level of service. Our goal is to have the right balance of design and technology with focus on a multisensory experience,” said CEO Marty Langenderfer. “The new Spavia multisensory experience will focus on blending art & technology to create a seamless guest experience. Spavia 2.0 will feature new designs, music, scents, and technological innovations to make booking appointments, selecting music, and purchasing memberships even easier.”

For the company’s new brand, which will be revealed on the 20th, the Spavia team took inspiration from the emergent cultural centers of Barcelona, New York, and Southern California. For Marty “finding the right team of millennials who understood where the culture was going was very important to us to get it right”. The brand blends the art, culture, and relaxed environment of millennial brands with the expertise and experience of Spavia’s national team.

Fifteen years ago, when Spavia founders created the first concept, they saw a strong need in the marketplace as membership massage clinics started to enter the market with lower priced massages without the consumer deserving key elements of guest services and  experience.  “We know the educated, spa consumer wants more and with this in mind designed the Spavia spa with real, tranquil retreats, luxurious robes, and spa sandals.”

CENTENNIAL, Colo. — Spavia day spa has been named one of the top 500 franchise companies by Entrepreneur Magazine, debuting on the list at number 258.  The Franchise 500 is the world’s first, best and most comprehensive franchise ranking.   Spavia day spa’s outstanding performance includes unit growth, financial strength and stability, and brand power.

“We are pleased and excited to be recognized as a top spa franchise by Entrepreneur Magazine, especially given the rankings quantitative approach.   The Spavia day spa franchise system has developed a foundation for continued growth and stability in developing a national spa franchise brand.   Our focus on bringing spa resort-level quality guest experiences to communities across the country has been well received,” says Marty Langenderfer, Spavia CEO and co-founder.  “The strength of Spavia is driven by the passion and commitment of our franchisees.  It has been so rewarding to see our franchisees become small business owners and make a difference in their communities.  We can’t wait to see what the future holds for all of us.”

The Spavia concept brings a high level of service, beautiful design, a robust technology platform and breadth of spa services at an affordable luxury price.   Communities appreciate and deserve a higher level of service and  experience  than what they receive from the multitude of massage spa clinics.   The Spavia brand offers beautiful retreats, robes and sandals and services, as well as comprehensive spa services including massage, facials and skin care, body wraps and scrubs, waxing, eyelash extensions and make-up.
