Hand and Stone was recently featured in an article in the Port Washington Patch titled "Hand & Stone Spa: A Place to Unwind in Port Washington."The article begins with a description of the spa and the importance of relaxation, and then goes into franchisee Rosalia Yarrington’s background in the corporate world and how after raising her children she decided she wanted to get involved with a franchise, so decided to open a Hand & Spa. The article then details the problems that she faced after Hurricane Sandy.
"A sense of tranquility permeates the new Hand & Stone Massage and Facial Spa at 987 Port Washington Boulevard. With its soft lighting, earth-toned painted walls, and soothing music, it's easy to see why on a recent Friday morning, new and established customers dropped in to learn when they could schedule a massage or facial. Owner Rosalia Yarrington takes it all in stride, making visitors feel welcome. To Yarrington, relaxation is essential. 'Everyone needs a way to de-stress and re-energize,' she said. Contradictory as it may seem, relaxation is the reason she went into business. A former corporate accountant, Yarrington, a Manhasset resident, had stepped off the career ladder to raise her three children, now 13, 11 and 8. As they became more independent, Yarrington looked toward entrepreneurship. She researched franchise opportunities, looking for a turnkey operation she could get behind, that also provided franchisees full support."
