  "account": "On August 14th, 2026, Hao Yi Tou, a Singapore-based body massage and foot reflexology brand, celebrated one year of operations at its Tang Plaza outlet located on Orchard Road. The outlet, which opened in August 2025, introduced a business-class concept allowing professionals in the Central Business District (CBD) to continue working during their reflexology sessions. Hao Yi Tou's Tang Plaza Outlet has shown remarkable success in its first year, catering specifically to the needs of CBD professionals who view time away from their desks as a scheduling cost rather than genuine rest. Each reflexology seat at the outlet features a pull-out stand sized for a laptop or mobile device and an iPad with charging points, enabling customers to maintain productivity without leaving the massage chair. Hao Yi Tou differentiates itself from other reflexology outlets in Singapore by not requiring customers to purchase packages or memberships. Founder Darren reflects on their first-year experience, stating that they built Tang Plaza around an experience where customers pay for each session they take, without any additional upsells. The therapists at Hao Yi Tou outlets have extensive experience, with many boasting between 10 and 40 years in the field, which sets them apart from the industry's common staff turnover. Darren's management experience from his role as Managing Director of Peach Garden, a Singapore restaurant group, has influenced the structure of sessions at Tang Plaza. The outlet continues to operate with the same principles as it did upon opening, focusing on per-session pricing, no packages or memberships, and a setup designed for customers who need to stay reachable during their sessions. As Tang Plaza enters its second year, the company intends to maintain this approach, providing uninterrupted work sessions for CBD professionals.",
