Perspire Sauna Studio Grows North Carolina Footprint with Eight-Unit Deal in Raleigh

Nation's Leading Infrared and Red-Light Sauna Franchise to Debut First Raleigh Studio in 2025

RALEIGH, N.C., Dec. 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Perspire Sauna Studio, the country's largest full-spectrum infrared (IR) and red-light (RL) sauna therapy franchise, is excited to announce its expansion into Raleigh, NC, through an eight-unit development agreement with husband-wife duo, Cory and Kelly Hess. The first location is expected to open in early 2025, with additional studios to follow in Raleigh and surrounding areas.

Kelly and Cory are franchising veterans who bring a wealth of business and health expertise to their newest venture.

The couple's shared passion for health and wellness combined with their personal experience with infrared sauna therapy made Perspire Sauna Studio a natural fit.

"As former college athletes and lifelong advocates of maintaining a healthy lifestyle, we've experienced the incredible benefits of infrared saunas firsthand," Kelly said. "This is more than a business for us – it's a way to bring accessible wellness solutions to the community we've called home for nearly a decade."
