Own a Resort-Inspired Day Spa
Spavia brings resort-level wellness to communities nationwide through a membership-driven model with diversified revenue and founder-led support since 2005.
Brand overview
Spavia is a family-owned day spa franchise founded in Denver in 2005 by Allison and Marty Langenderfer, who believed resort-inspired wellness should be within reach. The brand delivers customized experiences including massage, facials, skin care, body treatments, waxing, lash and brow, retail, and gift cards. A membership model anchors recurring revenue across multiple streams, giving owners stability and growth potential. Spavia remains founder-led and is not private-equity backed, meaning there is no exit clock and the brand is built for long-term health. With over 120 years of combined spa leadership experience on the national team, owners receive expert guidance at every stage.

Training & support
Before opening, owners receive market and site guidance, spa design support, comprehensive training, and a detailed launch plan. Training covers spa operations, service delivery, marketing, hiring, and financial management. Experienced real estate and construction teams support owners through every stage of site selection, build-out, and opening. As owners lead their spa, ongoing support includes operating systems, marketing resources, and continued guidance for the entire team. As owners grow, a community of fellow franchisees offers shared learning, and multi-unit opportunities are available for those ready to expand.
Ideal candidate
No prior spa or wellness industry experience is required. Many successful Spavia owners come from corporate management, finance, healthcare, and other professional backgrounds. Candidates need $200,000 or more in liquid capital and a net worth of at least $500,000. The ideal owner is a driven entrepreneur focused on delivering exceptional guest care and making a positive community impact. What matters most is a commitment to hospitality, team leadership, and long-term business growth.
