Healthy Back has 19 locations in 7 states and a corporate office in Beltsville, Maryland.[7] They are currently the largest independently owned back care retailer.[8] A 2008 report quoted the founder as stating that e-commerce made up 40% of their sales.[9] On April 1, 2015, the Healthy Back Store filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy (Case 15-14653) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Maryland. AcquisitionsIn the late 1990s, the Healthy Back Store acquired three Natural Back Stores in California, bringing the chain to 8 locations.[9] Healthy Back bought out the Maryland-based Joanne's Bed and Back chain of stores for $600,000 in 2008 following the latter's filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy earlier that year.[10] At the time of the merger, Healthy Back's sales were $40 million per year, and Joanne's $10 million.[10] Joanne's had played a role in Mazlish's entry into the back business, when he purchased a back cushion from the chain's Tyson's Corner location upon first moving to the District in 1993.[11] As early as 1998, US News noted that the four major back-related stores, Healthy Back Store, Better Back Store, Relax the Back, and JoAnne's Bed & Back Shops, had a combined business of $75 million.[12] References1. ^{{cite news|title=Some Places to Find Products in Stores and on the Web|url=http://www.highbeam.com/doc/1P2-421402.html|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150329164355/http://www.highbeam.com/doc/1P2-421402.html|dead-url=yes|archive-date=March 29, 2015|accessdate=7 February 2015|work=The Washington Post|date=March 29, 2001|subscription=yes|via=HighBeam}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://hopegibbs.com/article/90/back-on-his-feet-tony-mazlish-georgetown-magazine |title=Back on His Feet: Tony Mazlish |publisher=Georgetown Magazine |date= |accessdate=2015-02-04}} 3. ^{{cite book|author=James E.
