Jon'Ric Medical Spa opens in Charlotte

A new medical spa in Charlotte, Jon'Ric, has a grand opening and open house scheduled for Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Woodlawn Road.

The spa is a franchised facility owned and operated by Dr. Matthew Jones. Unlike a traditional spa, the facility also offers some medical appearances such as injections to improve one's appearance.

"The menu of services offered include a full compliment of massage options, skin care and waxing, and mani/pedi services," wrote a spokeswoman. "Some of the many services that Dr. Jones personally offers include injectable treatments for facial wrinkles as well as laser treatments for uneven skin tone, vessels, hair removal, fine lines and wrinkles."

Jon'Ric, founded in 1983, franchises medical spas, dental spas and other such facilities around the world. Here's a description of their business from the Jon'Ric website:

"A Medical spa is the pairing of a cosmetic surgery office and a traditional day spa. This means that all of your aesthetic needs can be met in one location. Today’s Medical Spa offers a wide variety of services and treatments which provide a lucrative and needed extension to the physicians practice. 
A Medical Spa offers treatments that require a Doctor's supervision, such as laser resurfacing and Botox injections. It also offers spa treatments. A Medical Spa is a hybrid between a medical clinic and a Day Spa that operates under the supervision of medical Doctor."

The Charlotte grand opening will feature catered food and complimentary chair massages. There's no word yet on whether it will feature some of the more expensive touches from a recent Jon'Ric grand opening in Armenia, described on the company's web site:
