Annual Conference Recap
Massage Envy’s annual franchise conference was held in Phoenix, May 18-21. This year’s conference attendees included 43 regional Massage Envy therapist winners from around the country. The regional therapist winners received round-trip airfare, a resort hotel stay, an eight-hour continuing education workshop by James Waslaski, master of Orthopedic Massage, and special recognition at the closing awards dinner. Each therapist also received a $300 bonus check.
Read what some of the regional therapists had to say about the event:
My experience at the conference was everything and more. Everything from the beautiful resort, the CEU class, to the dinner and award ceremony was amazing. I felt really honored to be a Massage Therapist and a part of Massage Envy.”
—Abbey L. Rhoads, Clive, Iowa
I was looking forward to the seminar with James Waslaski because a client I am working with has limited shoulder range of motion. After training with James and studying his DVD, I was able to free my client of the pain in her shoulder and increase her range of motion. I also enjoyed connecting with all the other therapists at the conference.”
—Tom Wolford, Overland Park, Kan.
I felt so much respect and appreciation for working for Massage Envy. My wish is that everyone could be a recipient of this award sometime in his or her career.”
—Georgia Brouwer, Houston, Texas
I have made new friends, found a confidence in my profession and know Massage Envy as more than just a name; it’s a family and I’m proud to be a part of it. Thank you!”
—Michelle Simmons, Mount Pleasant, S.C.
The thing that stood out for me was when all of us therapists got a standing ovation for 10 minutes at the awards banquet. All the hooting and hollering gave me goose bumps. It was a good feeling to know that we, the therapists, are truly valued by you guys.”

For moments of my life, I felt like a Hollywood star. Not a moment passed without a thanks, a praise, a hug and, above all, the royal treatment.”
