I’m passionate about creating a space where:
…people don’t have to worry about whether or not the products being used or breathed are safe.
…quality services & perfect hygiene are almost taken for granted since they’re the core of what we do.
…busy people can get the R&R they need without spending hours at the spa.
…you can have a great conversation or relax on your own.
…it is unpretentious and people feel comfortable.
...we have a positive impact on everyone who walks into the door.
…it feels more like a community of awesome people than a stuffy spa.
…people want to keep coming back!

A bit about my background...
My background is in manufacturing and operations in the pharmaceutical and beauty industries. I have a BS in Chemical Engineering and an MBA in operations management. Matt (my husband) and I relocated from New York City to Toronto in July, 2010 for his job as a professor at U of T. We decided that the timing was perfect for me to pursue my passion to create Alma. Since then, I’ve obtained certifications in nail technology and reflexology and developed Alma. So how did I decide to start a spa?

“Natural healing is my passion. I believe that the body has the ability to heal and restore itself, given the opportunity. I invite you to experience the therapeutic benefits of spa treatments using restorative oils, wonderful botanicals, vitamins and minerals that enhance those healing powers and return the body to its natural balance."
