Massaging

Do any salon owners in here own a hydrated massage bed? I'm looking into investing in either the spa capsule or an aqua massage. Are there any different brands that some of you may own and like? Any info would greatly be appreciated. Also what experiences do you have as an owner that you would like to share? What are the pros and cons of having one?

Re: Massaging

There is a chiropractor in Pennsylvania that posted a couple of those for sale. Check the for sale forum.

Re: Massaging

Neither is going to make you a good sum of money. Use the room for another tanning bed. A better return on your investment. One pro would be it's a nice heater for the room and the con would be it's using electicity to heat the water.

Re: Massaging

^^^What he said. I have one sitting in my basement. Not enough $ made in salon, and no one wants to buy it.

Ahhh maybe someday I can hook it up and use it at home, cause I love it personaly.

Re: Massaging

It’s all in the marketing. There are losers who will fail in anything they do. Look – somebody here has a hydro massage sitting in the basement – what a waste -- put it in the salon and give away free massage – before you know, you can start charging for it. Or continue being a looser. Hydro massage works great for me and many others, people make money with it. There are hundreds of salons use them to make money. All industry publications talk about adding massage to our services. PlanetBeach is investing into it. It’s the future. I follow European news -- SunPoint a big, 500 salon German company is going to roll out their salons with hydro massage. Diversify or die. As I said, its all in the marketing and marketing to your customers. I know spa capsule has an amazing marketing system, I’ve seen their posters, brochures and post cards. They say that they will teach you e-mail marketing too. I wish they were around when I bought my hydro bed. But as I said, make-up your own mind – don’t listen to loosers.

Re: Massaging

Clasicwhite, you have been a member here since last August and you chose this thread to respond to (and rather defensively, at that). This is your one and only post.
Also, in your user profile, you have marked business type as other, yet the tone of your response implies you are a salon owner that has hydromassage as well. Please fill out your profile information.
Sounds suspiciously like you may represent this company rather than being a salon owner. Nothing wrong with that, unless you try to make your post sound like a user testimonial. Then it's spam.
