RICHMOND, Texas (Jan. 21, 2023) — Hand & Stone Massage and Facial Spa, the nation’s leading luxury massage and facial spa franchise, announced today the opening of its newest franchised location in Richmond. Located near Aliana at 10321 West Grand Parkway South in front of Burlington, the new Hand & Stone spa is owned and operated by husband-and-wife team Mark and Heather Mize. This is the third of five locations the Sugarland couple plans to bring to the area. They opened their first spa in Fulshear in March 2021, followed by a second in Missouri City later that year. The couple has a passion for the Hand & Stone brand and are committed to bringing accessible and affordable luxury wellness services to their local community.
“Mark and I continue to grow this business because improving the lives of our neighbors and positively contributing to our community is special to us,” said Heather Mize, co-owner of Hand & Stone Richmond-Aliana. “Fort Bend County is growing fast, and the luxury spa experience from Hand & Stone provides locals with a much-needed opportunity to relax and unwind with signature massage and facial services.”
The newest Hand & Stone in Richmond-Aliana features high-quality professional massage services, including Swedish, Himalayan Salt, Sports, Deep Tissue, Oncology and Prenatal massages. Guests can visit the new spa to enjoy Hand & Stone’s signature hot stone massage and best-in-class facial treatments tailored to each individual's needs or skin concerns, with a wide-range of services available for women, men and teens.
Like all Hand & Stone spas nationwide, the new Richmond-Aliana location offers advanced skincare and spa services that incorporate new technologies at the forefront of the wellness market to enhance each guest’s overall experience. These advanced services include Decompression Therapy massage, Diamond Glow facial, NuFACE microcurrent facial, Percussive Therapy massage and LED Phototherapy facial, as well as innovations such as CBD oil enhancements and partnerships with award-winning skincare lines Dermalogica® and ClarityRX (CBD offerings vary by market).
All Hand & Stone services are performed by experienced licensed estheticians and massage therapists.
