Hand & Stone Debuts First Location in Sacramento, Championing the Self-Care Movement

Today, the leading facial and massage concept announced the opening of its new location in the Sacramento community. Situated at 69 University Ave., Hand & Stone of Sacramento is another clear sign of the brand’s ongoing mission to make wellness, relaxation, and self-care accessible to more communities.

To celebrate the new spa, a grand opening will take place on July 19. They’ll also offer special promotions for military veterans and their partners. This location will be the 28th Hand & Stone in California, which also represents the brand’s greatest opportunity for growth.

Looking ahead, the Kamahanas have signed on to open a second location in 2026, continuing their mission to expand Hand & Stone’s high-quality services throughout the region.

First-time franchisees Sean and Tara Kamahana are bringing the first Hand & Stone location to Sacramento. With over 30 years of business experience, Sean previously managed the largest territory in California for a leading linen company. Tara’s background spans various areas of healthcare and hospitality, including managing a level 4 medical care home facility for non-ambulatory infants. Additionally, she spent the last 15 years in residential construction and remodeling.

The Kamahanas’ shared appreciation for wellness deepened after massage therapy helped both Sean and Tara regain mobility following injuries and surgery from a car accident. Inspired to bring that same life-changing experience to others, the duo explored bringing these services to Northern California. Their first location is set to open in mid-July and will launch with an exclusive Founding Membership Program offering perks: no enrollment fee, a massage or facial every month, free enhancements for life (valued at up to $30), and a complimentary facial when guests sign up for the membership.

“As new franchise owners, our vision for this location is to create an elevated spa experience that’s easy to access and enjoy — a place where guests can relax, rejuvenate, and leave feeling their absolute best,” said Sean “Bringing a Hand & Stone location to the Sacramento area and being able to open a business of our own is a dream come true. For Tara and me, we look forward to bringing wellness and relaxation to our community and to seeing the appreciation grow in others as they start and continue their wellness journeys.

Hand & Stone introduces high-quality professional massage services, including Swedish, Himalayan Salt, Sports, Deep Tissue, Oncology and Prenatal massages to California’s capital region. Clients can also enjoy Hand & Stone’s signature hot stone massage and best-in-class facials, all tailored to each individual's needs and to address specific skin concerns.
