Nation's Leading Infrared and Red-Light Sauna Franchise Names Chicagoland Entrepreneur as Area Representative for Illinois and Wisconsin

COSTA MESA, Calif., April 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Perspire Sauna Studio, the country's largest full-spectrum infrared (IR) and red-light (RL) sauna therapy franchise, is proud to announce the appointment of its first-ever Area Representative, Tanner Holmes. As a successful multi-unit Perspire franchisee with four open studios in the Chicagoland area and licenses to build five more, Holmes will now oversee franchise development and operations support across Illinois and Wisconsin.

Guiding Franchisees to Success
For Holmes, who has previously served as an Area Representative for other franchise brands, the position is a natural next step in his growth with Perspire.

"Being a Perspire franchisee has shown me just how powerful this brand and business model can be," said Holmes. "Taking on the Area Representative role allows me to pay that forward by helping other franchisees hit the ground running. From licensing questions to HR-related advice to site selection, I'm excited to be a resource for anyone looking to bring the Perspire experience to their communities in Illinois and Wisconsin."

Driving Perspire's Growth
Currently, Perspire Sauna Studio has four locations in Illinois, including two in the city of Chicago (Lakeview & West Loop), Downers Grove, and Naperville, and one in Brookfield, Wisconsin. As Area Representative, Holmes will focus on attracting and supporting new franchisees eager to enter the wellness franchise space.

"Tanner has been a tremendous asset to our system since day one, and we couldn't ask for a better person to fill this pivotal new role," said Lee Braun, Founder and CEO of Perspire Sauna Studio. "His leadership, operational expertise, and commitment to Perspire's mission make him an ideal partner to support franchisees and drive our continued growth throughout Illinois and Wisconsin."
