Premier Neighborhood Day Spa Known for Resort-Inspired Amenities and Treatments Opens Third Location in Twin Cities
APPLE VALLEY, Minn – Spavia, the premier health and wellness spa, is reshaping the neighborhood day spa experience one community at a time. Extending its mission to better people’s lives through accessible and affordable luxury spa treatments, the brand is pleased to announce its new spa location in Apple Valley, Minnesota.
Set to open mid-January, Spavia in Apple Valley will be located at 14750 Cedar Ave. (Suite 140), amid the vibrant shopping area at the intersection of 147th St. W. In an opportune economic climate and thriving market catering to health and beauty-conscious consumers, the new day spa is delighted to open in the Southeast Metro, empowering individuals to relax, recenter, and renew conveniently close to home. Guests are welcome to indulge in a variety of result-driven massage and skin care treatments, facials, body wraps, waxing, lash extensions, and more. With luxurious spa robes and sandals, a tranquil retreat area, warm aromatherapy neck pillows, inspirational readings, exotic teas, and the ability to customize every aspect of any treatment, there is something for everyone to enjoy.
Spearheading Spavia Day Spa in Apple Valley is the husband-and-wife team, Kalo Amundson and Rebecca Paolello, who are eager to embark on their entrepreneurial journey to lend joy and a positive impact to others. Rebecca, who has an extensive educational background in nutrition and wellness, handled food and beverage distribution for a major franchise, where she got a glimpse into the segment. After spending the majority of her career in food regulatory, and as a mother, she prioritizes the importance of health and wellness, coupled with her passion for exceptional service, led her towards an aspirational path of business ownership. Her turning point was when she visited an existing Spavia in nearby Maple Grove. She found the resort-inspired experience rewarding, especially as the affordability factor created a haven to regularly enjoy quality self-care. Acknowledging that self–care is now more important than ever, and considering the number of services offered online, Paolello saw Spavia as an ideal business venture that offers a personal experience that can’t be replicated.
“My husband and I are thrilled to embark on our entrepreneurial journey with Spavia Day Spa and build a community that is passionate about self-care and wellness,” said Rebecca. “The service industry has taken a nosedive, and we are committed to bringing back an exceptional experience. These days it’s rare for people to look at you and smile…our goal is to build a friendly, well-connected team focused on leaving a lasting positive impact on others. The luxurious atmosphere and intentional approach to wellness, centered around people, that founders Marty and Allison Langenderfer have captured in every detail, was truly impressive to us and something we could believe in as our own. We are confident local residents will also take notice of this and we are grateful to extend the Spavia community here.”
Inviting everyone to relax, recenter, and renew, Spavia is committed to providing an exceptional guest experience by building teams with the community’s most reputable, educated, and seasoned massage therapists and estheticians. For those looking to take a self-care break each month, Spavia offers three levels of affordable membership opportunities where guests benefit from an Essential, Premier, or Ultimate wellness program. Open seven days a week, Spavia allows for a relaxing atmosphere and resort-inspired amenities whenever guests need it most. Guests may also pick from a wide range of retail offerings in their spa boutique for at home care, including skincare, lotions, candles, jewelry, recovery tools and so much more.
“We are excited to expand our Spavia community at the Spavia in Apple Valley with such passionate owners like Rebecca and Kalo,” said CEO and Co-Founder Allison Langenderfer. “It really resonates with us when a husband and wife team like Rebecca and Kalo joins our journey to better other people's lives. They recognize and appreciate the ease behind a resort-inspired, affordable day spa that is close to home. The Apple Valley location is the perfect fit for families and busy professionals to embrace and enjoy self-care and wellness in their everyday lives.”
