Making a Difference: Making a Difference – Massage Envy
The crippling effects of arthritis are felt by millions of adults and hundreds of thousands of children each year. Massage Envy and the Arthritis Foundation share a common understanding of both the disease’s drastic consequences and the potential for massage therapy to help alleviate its symptoms. Through their second annual Healing Hands for Arthritis event, Massage Envy helped to further the Arthritis Foundation’s mission to prevent, control and cure the affliction.
During the one day event, Massage Envy donated ten dollars from every massage and facial to the Arthritis Foundation, raising more than $12,000 at their twelve clinics in Las Vegas and nearly $680,000 nationwide. Murad, Massage Envy Spa’s exclusive skin care partner, also donated ten percent of all sales from their products sold at Massage Envy Spa Locations to the Arthritis Foundation. In addition, Massage Envy serves as a national sponsor of the foundation’s annual Arthritis Walk, where Massage Envy owners from around the country share information about the benefits of massage therapy and help support the Arthritis Foundation’s cause.
“The support we received from our local community for Healing Hands for Arthritis was incredible,” said Steve Cook, Massage Envy’s regional developer for Arizona and Las Vegas. By joining together, Massage Envy and the Arthritis Foundation have each done a huge part to help provide relief and improve the lives of all those suffering from this debilitating burden.
