You’ve probably seen her around the building… but do you know what she does?

Meet Mary Jane O’Shea, our Registered Kinesiologist and owner of Aligned Kinesiology! 😊

“But what exactly is kinesiology?” We get asked that a lot!

Simply put, kinesiology is all about movement — helping you move better, feel better and get back to doing the things you love. ❤️

If you’re navigating a health condition or injury, or simply aren’t sure where to start, Mary Jane (MJ) can help you build a plan that feels doable, safe, and tailored to you.

She also offers Facial Stretch Therapy, a hands-on treatment designed to help improve mobility, flexibility and the way your body moves.

Whether you’re dealing with stiffness, feeling restricted, recovering from an injury, or just want to move a little easier, MJ may be just the person you didn’t know you needed!

📍 Right here in our building, right here in our community.

Today a wonderful chapter is coming to a close — Judy Macleod of Judy’s Cuts ‘N Such is officially retiring✂️

Judy has been so much more than a hairstylist to so many — she’s been a friendly face, a great listener, and someone who always made people feel just a little more put together walking out the door.
As she trades in her scissors for more time with her grandkids (maybe a few Star Trek marathons 🚀),and boldly go wherever the next adventure takes her 🚀 we wish her nothing but the best!

Thank you, Judy, for all the years of care, laughs, and great hair. You’ll be missed 💛
Happy retirement!

✨ Hello and Welcome! ✨

My name is Mandy, and I am the owner of The Hideaway Massage Studio and I.O.W.A. (Independently Owned Wellness Associates). I am also a Registered Massage Therapist, and I’ve been incredibly fortunate to build a career that I care deeply about.

I opened The Hideaway Massage Studio nearly nine years ago. Originally from the state of Iowa, I moved to Canada 22 years ago, and the name of my business is a little nod to where I began and the wonderful space I hoped to create here. While I am no longer accepting new massage clients, my passion for health, wellness, and community continues to grow.

That passion is what inspired the creation of I.O.W.A. — a shared wellness space designed to bring a variety of independently owned health and wellness services together under one roof, right here in our town. My hope is that this space feels welcoming, supportive, and convenient for both practitioners and clients alike.

I am truly grateful for my friends, family, and clients who have supported me over the years. Your encouragement and trust have made this journey possible, and I’m so excited to take this next step.

Thank you for being part of it 🤍
