Inspection summary
Alux Spa has been inspected 3 times by Alberta Health Services (Environmental Public Health) since February 6, 2024. The most recent inspection, on September 8, 2026, recorded 4 infractions.
2 of 3 inspections on record found no infractions at all. In the past 12 months there was 1 inspection with 4 infractions recorded. All recorded findings relate to upkeep, equipment or paperwork rather than direct infection-control risks to clients.
What these findings mean
Health authorities word their findings differently, so we group them by what they mean for clients. In personal service settings like salons, spas and tattoo studios, higher-risk findings are the ones that could spread infection from one client to the next, through broken skin, blood or instruments that were not properly cleaned and sterilized.
Equipment and utensilsLower risk
Instruments, chairs, tables and footbaths must be made of materials that can be cleaned, kept in good repair and stored so they stay clean. Single-use items such as nail files, buffers, razors and needles must be thrown away after each client.
Recorded 2 times on September 8, 2026. For example:
Is reusable equipment cleaned properly (Non-Critical)?
Permits, records and postingLower risk
Operating permits, client records, sterilization logs and required signage. Client records matter because they let health officials contact people if an infection is linked to the business.
Recorded once on September 8, 2026. For example:
Are facility-specific written procedures established to adequately describe safe and sanitary practices?
Other findingsLower risk
Findings that do not fit the categories above, such as follow-ups that confirm an earlier violation was corrected, or requirements specific to this type of facility.
Recorded once on September 8, 2026. For example:
Are cosmetic products appropriate for their intended use and being handled properly?

- 20. Is reusable equipment disinfected properly?
- Multiple reusable instruments, including comedone extractors, scissors, cuticle pushers and tweezers, were observed on-site during the inspection; however, no high-level disinfectant was available. This indicates that the required reprocessing and high-level disinfection of semi-critical instruments is not being conducted.The operator confirmed that all reusable instruments, including comedone extractors and other similar tools, are maintained for educational and demonstration purposes only and are not used on clients' skin.Ensure that reusable instruments are not used on clients unless appropriate cleaning and high-level disinfection procedures are in place and performed in accordance with manufacturer instructions. If reusable instruments are intended solely for educational purposes, they must be clearly identified, labeled and stored separately from equipment used for client services to prevent accidental use.All reuseable instruments were removed from the room.

- It was observed that 2. Multiple expired chemicals were being used at the time of inspection. 1. An expired intermediate-level disinfectant (CaviCide) was also being used at the time of inspection.Ensure that all chemical products, including disinfectants, are used in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions, including adherence to expiry dates.
