Zen Massage Corporate Office

Zen Massage was founded in 2005 in Dilworth, North Carolina, by Kevin Koon. The company operates a mostly franchised outlet of discount massage therapy services. Franchising began in 2007.

The company’s focus is on the health and mental benefits of regular massage therapy, but at a discounted price. An average therapist earns $68 an hour. Koon dropped that price to $40. Unfortunately, Koon found that he didn’t enjoy the franchise part of his business and sold it to a friend in 2009 for an undisclosed sum. Koon and his wife still operate their original massage location in Dilworth.

Zen Massage currently has 16 locations in 41 states, all of them franchised. The company has no membership plan, customers pay each time they come in. This sets Zen Massage apart from similar enterprises. Headquarters are located in Harrisburg, North Carolina.
