BILOXI, Miss. (WLOX) - The pandemic opened doors for many business owners to become their own boss in South Mississippi. Thanks to that trend, Biloxi residents have a new option to get some massage therapy.
Owner Alicia Tolliver opened Spa Ambiance in November 2020. She has 17 years of experience in massage services as she has worked at local spas in casinos like the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino and Beau Rivage Resort & Casino.
Tolliver said she decided to open her own business since she had more time on her hands due to the pandemic.
