NEW HEAD SPA

2674 ALTA VISTA DR OTTAWA ON K1V 7T4 · Personal Services

Inspection summary

NEW HEAD SPA has been inspected 2 times by Ottawa Public Health since February 4, 2026. The most recent inspection, on July 23, 2026, recorded 2 infractions.

None of the 2 inspections on record were free of infractions. In the past 12 months there were 2 inspections with 3 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 once on July 23, 2026. For example: All reusable equipment is cleaned and disinfected or sterilized as often as necessary to prevent disease transmission.

  • Building, plumbing and upkeepLower risk

    The premises needs a working hand sink, a separate sink for cleaning instruments where required, cleanable surfaces, and good lighting and ventilation. Upkeep problems are usually lower risk on their own, but they make thorough cleaning harder.

    Recorded once on February 4, 2026. For example: Written notice to Ottawa Public Health is required 14 days prior for new operations, additional services, renovations, or construction.

  • 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 July 23, 2026. For example: Disinfectants are approved and used appropriately.
