Heights Wellness Retreat Opens First US Location in Porter Ranch

Porter Ranch residents are about to gain access to comprehensive wellness services with the grand opening of Heights Wellness Retreat on November 14. Located at 19765 Rinaldi Street, Suite A, this new facility represents the first-ever Heights Wellness Retreat location to open across the United States, owned by husband-and-wife entrepreneurs Jacob and Ashley Bustos. The retreat will offer an extensive range of both traditional and innovative therapies including massage therapy, facials, cryotherapy, lymphatic drainage suit treatments, halo salt therapy, and other services designed to nurture body, mind, and spirit. The grand opening ceremony on November 14 from 10:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. will feature live music, facility tours, and a ribbon-cutting ceremony with prominent government officials including LA County Supervisor Lindsey Horvath, LA Councilmember John Lee, Congressman Brad Sherman, and Congressman George Whitesides in attendance.

The Bustos bring impressive credentials to this venture, with over 40 years of combined franchise experience primarily in the QSR food sector. Jacob's entrepreneurial journey began remarkably early when he became a McDonald's manager before turning 18, later advancing to leadership roles in nationally recognized fast-casual brands. Ashley launched her career in hospitality at the House of Blues in San Diego before managing operations, recruitment, and marketing for several food brands. Their transition into wellness came after their own personal wellness journey revealed the importance of holistic health. This Porter Ranch location marks the first of three retreats the couple plans to open in the region, signaling their strong commitment to bringing comprehensive wellness options to their community through the Heights Wellness Retreat platform.

What makes this opening particularly significant is the Bustos' educational approach to wellness. As Ashley emphasized, "For us, this new location is more than just a business. It's an opportunity to educate people on how they can prioritize their health and wellness. We're not salespeople, we're educators." The facility will specialize in touchless therapies including lymphatic drainage suit, meditation, cryotherapy, and halo salt therapy, providing modern, convenient ways for clients to achieve holistic wellness. Heights Wellness Retreat has evolved significantly since its founding as a massage franchise in 2004, now operating over 100 locations across the U.S. and Canada with a comprehensive suite of innovative services designed to restore balance and energy while maintaining massage and facials as foundational offerings.
