Heights Wellness Retreat opens its first Porter Ranch location, introducing comprehensive wellness services and marking the beginning of a new franchise expansion that addresses growing community health needs.

Heights Wellness Retreat, a spa and wellness franchise offering both traditional and touchless therapies, will open its first Porter Ranch location on November 14 at 19765 Rinaldi Street, Suite A. The new facility represents the inaugural Heights Wellness Retreat location across the United States and introduces a comprehensive approach to holistic wellness services to the Porter Ranch community. The retreat will feature massage therapy, facials, Cryotherapy, Lymphatic Drainage Suit, Halo Salt Therapy, and other services designed to help clients nurture their body, mind, and spirit.
The Porter Ranch location is owned by husband-and-wife team Jacob and Ashley Bustos, who bring more than 40 years of combined franchise experience, primarily in the QSR food sector. This marks the first of three retreats the couple plans to open in the region. Jacob's entrepreneurial background includes management roles at McDonald's and leadership positions in nationally recognized fast-casual brands, while Ashley began her career in hospitality at the House of Blues in San Diego before managing operations, recruitment, and marketing for several food brands.
The Bustos explained that their decision to open a Heights Wellness Retreat stemmed from their personal wellness journey and desire to bring meaningful health services to their community. Ashley Bustos emphasized that their approach focuses on education rather than sales, stating that the location represents an opportunity to educate people on how they can prioritize their health and wellness. The couple recognized the importance of overall well-being and identified a need for comprehensive wellness services in Porter Ranch after experiencing their own health transformations.
To celebrate the new location, Heights Wellness Retreat Porter Ranch will host a grand opening ceremony on November 14 from 10:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. The event will feature live music, tours of the space, and a ribbon-cutting ceremony with government officials including LA County Supervisor Lindsey Horvath, LA Councilmember John Lee, Congressman Brad Sherman, and Congressman George Whitesides. Heights Wellness Retreat CEO Shane Evans and COO Russell Hoff will also be in attendance for the official opening.
The retreat will provide a range of touchless therapies including Lymphatic Drainage Suit, Meditation, Cryotherapy, and Halo Salt Therapy, offering clients convenient methods to achieve holistic wellness. These tailored treatments are designed to help guests restore balance and recharge both body and mind through innovative wellness technologies.

The opening represents a significant milestone for the wellness franchise, which has evolved from a massage-focused business in 2004 to a comprehensive wellness provider with over 100 locations across the U.S. and Canada.
