Elements Therapeutic Massage Expands into Manasquan, Debuts Highly Personalized Massage Approach

It’s a myth that all massages are created equal, and local entrepreneur Alexander Farganis, owner of the new Elements Therapeutic Massage in Manasquan, is on a mission to help area consumers experience the healing benefits of massage therapy services tailored to meet their unique needs. The new massage studio, located at 2441 Route 34 in Manasquan, opened its doors August 10, 2013.

Unlike most area massage retailers, Elements has created a niche in an increasingly competitive industry by specializing solely in massage services and providing a highly customized experience to each client. According to a study from Trajectory Research of 829 massage users, Elements clients reported more than 50 percent higher satisfaction levels than users of independent massage providers or other major franchise massage brands.

“We’re focused on providing customized massages to every client – our therapists use the right technique and right pressure that you just don’t find at run-of-the-mill massage retailers,” said Alexander Farganis, owner of the Elements Therapeutic Massage studio in Manasquan. “The Elements franchise was founded on the healing benefits of massage, and we’re looking forward to making a positive impact on our clients’ lives.”

After spending more than 12 years as a member of the New York Board of Trade, Farganis decided he wanted to make a change in his life. With a business degree from Wagner College, Farganis has had an entrepreneurial spirit for many years. His business acumen combined with a personal passion for health and wellness and his own therapeutic massage experience make Elements a perfect fit as he’d like to help people discover the benefits of massage therapy today and the positive impact massage can have on your body and well-being for years to come.

Once viewed as an expensive splurge, Elements is making therapeutic massage increasingly affordable and available to time-starved consumers who recognize the value of massage in maintaining their overall health and wellness. Those who receive regular massages benefit from lower levels of stress hormones, a heightened immune system, increase in circulation, etc.

Elements has generated strong growth across the country even in a down economy, with a cumulative annual growth rate in system-wide revenues of 27.8% over the last three years. For potential franchisees, Elements boasts a lower investment and cost structure with a smaller footprint, less build-out and lower rent than competitors in the massage retail space, making the franchise more operationally efficient.

The new Manasquan studio will be open seven days a week, welcomes walk-ins and offers a membership program that allows clients to receive regular, discounted massage therapy services throughout each month. For more information, please call (732) 800-3022.
