Caremark franchisees to open The Massage Company franchise in Reading

The Massage Company is set to open in Reading later this year, creating 15 jobs following a £500,000 investment.

The site will become the latest in the nationwide expansion of the specialist massage franchise, which has 10 centres operating around the UK.

Franchisees, Swati Bagwe and Shipra Mehta, are no strangers to franchising as both have run their own Caremark franchise in Richmond and Hounslow since 2017.

Open seven days a week, the 2,000 sq. ft location will house 10 treatment rooms and a team of up to 10 therapists, with the aim of providing treatments to thousands of customers each month.

The centre will specialise in four types of massage: sports, Swedish, deep tissue and maternity, each with a choice of upgrade options including hot stone, scalp massage, aromatherapy, and a ‘fantastic foot’ treatment.

Swati and Shirpa are looking to make regular, affordable massage available to the Reading area.

Swait Bagwe said: “There are spas and standalone beauty treatments available but there isn’t a professional mainstream massage provider. Often, massage is very expensive and quality is variable.

“We’re aiming to change that with a welcoming environment, a monthly subscription model and a team of therapists trained to the highest standards. It’s a completely different concept to anything else in and around Reading.”

The brand is already proving popular with residents in branches across the region, according to Elliot Walker, founder and CEO of The Massage Company.

He said: “Customers from Reading visit our other locations in Camberley, High Wycombe and Ealing so it is great to make our quality of massage therapy treatments available to everyone in Reading.

“Research shows that regular treatments promote significant improvements in both physical and mental health – now these will be available to the people of Reading without having to travel long distances.”
