Your Therapists Hate the Software.
Your Clients Feel It.
It Is Time to Fix Both.
BuboSoma is the practice management platform built exclusively for massage therapy franchises. Multi-location control, royalty tracking, and white-glove migration from Mindbody included.
The Real Cost of Staying
What Mindbody Is Actually Costing Your Franchise
Every full-price per-location subscription. Every therapist who quits over the software. Every client who abandons the booking flow. It adds up. Here is where it shows up in your numbers.
Full subscription per location
Mindbody charges a complete subscription for every location you open. Your second location costs the same as your first. Your tenth costs the same as your second. Growth is penalized, not rewarded.
Therapist recruitment and retention
Therapists talk. In CE courses, in Facebook groups, at conferences. "Do you use Mindbody?" is already a dealbreaker for a growing number of experienced LMTs who have been burned by it before.
The client booking experience
Forced account creation. Spam from the Mindbody marketplace. A booking flow that was designed for a platform, not for your brand. Clients feel it every time they try to book with you.
Your data is not yours
Years of client history, treatment records, and business data locked behind a platform that has already demonstrated it will raise prices and hold your data hostage during transitions.
Royalty reporting is manual
Franchise royalty tracking in Mindbody requires manual exports, spreadsheet work, and reconciliation across locations. It is a solved problem that they have not solved for you.
Built for everyone. Optimized for no one.
Mindbody serves yoga studios, gyms, salons, and spas. Your therapists are running therapeutic practices with clinical documentation needs. The software was never built for them specifically.
"When Mindbody acquired Booker in 2018, they required my business to pay the full subscription price for every additional location. When I looked at returning in 2020, and again in 2026, the same model was still in place. That experience is exactly why BuboSoma exists."Founder, BuboSoma / Licensed Massage Therapist, 30+ years
The BuboSoma Franchise Platform
Everything Your Franchise Needs. Built Specifically for Therapeutic Practice.
Not adapted from a gym platform. Not bolted onto a salon system. Built from inside the treatment room by someone who has run the kind of practice your franchisees run every day.
Franchise Corporate Dashboard
A single unified view above the location level. Monitor bookings, revenue, staff performance, and clinical flow across every branch without logging into each location separately.
Branded Client Experience
Your clients book under your brand, not Mindbody's. No Mindbody marketplace. No platform spam. No forced account creation that pulls your clients into a competitor's ecosystem. Your franchise. Your brand. Your relationship.
Per-Location Pricing That Rewards Growth
Your second location is not a second full subscription. Your tenth location does not cost what your first does. We designed pricing to support franchise expansion, not tax it.
SOAP Notes Built In
Clinical documentation is a core feature, not a paid add-on. HIPAA-compliant SOAP notes that your therapists actually use because they were designed around how therapists actually document.
White-Glove Migration from Mindbody
We cover the Mindbody exit fee per location and handle the data migration. Client records, booking history, staff schedules. Your franchise locations land running, not rebuilding.
Onboard Any Location in Less Than a Day
New franchise location opening? Your staff should be running on the software the same day. We engineered onboarding to eliminate the learning curve that costs you the first two weeks of a new location.
Pricing Philosophy
What Happens to Your Software Bill When You Open Location 5
The math is straightforward. The difference is not.
Therapist Retention
The Software Is a Recruitment Problem You May Not Have Solved Yet
Experienced massage therapists talk to each other. At CE courses. At conferences. In online communities with tens of thousands of members. The conversation about Mindbody is not positive, and it is happening whether or not your franchise is in the room.
Therapists who have worked on Mindbody at previous jobs are already arriving at interviews with an opinion. Some are asking directly. Some are declining offers without saying why.
BuboSoma was built by a massage therapist and educator with 30 years of clinical experience and 15 years teaching the profession. When therapists find out what your franchise runs on, that story matters to them.
