The newest addition to Whatcom County’s health and wellness business community, Massage Envy, opened Nov. 21 in Sehome Village next to the UPS Store.

Located at 330 36th St., Massage Envy will be managed initially by Edna Christianson, who co-owns the new venture with her husband, Mark. The couple have owned and operated the Massage Envy in Everett since 2006.

Christianson said the Bellingham location will eventually employ 40 licensed massage practitioners and support staff. The business is open weekdays from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m, 8 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on Saturdays, and Sundays from 10:00 a.m to 6 p.m.

The new Bellingham center is one of more than 700 locations in 44 states. Massage Envy provides professional and affordable therapeutic massage and spa services to consumers with busy lifestyles at convenient times and locations. Massage Envy also offers off-site chair massages for local businesses.
