about jaross

Meet the staff and get to know who we are and what makes up the JaRoss family.

Ross and Jane Fisher

We are the two who had the vision of opening a resort style spa in this area.  Starting back in 1996 at 1600 sq. feet and then moving into 6500 square feet in 2005 to finally make that vision come true.  We are busy parents and grandparents so we understand how necessary it is to take care of yourself before you can take care of others.  Family is very important to everyone so that's why we created the place where we can make that possible. 

Derrick Spice

Owner (As of 02/01/2011)

Being the son of  Jane Fisher gave me the opportunity to be around this business since the first day JaRoss opened their doors.  I have learned a lot from that and I bring that experience with me.  I'm excited to continue to grow this business and see that client satisfaction exceeds expectations.  I will continue to look at other ways not only to improve our services but also bring in this New Year with new enhanced ideas.  If you have any thoughts or questions please don't hesitate to forward those to me by email or phone.
