Inspection summary

Olive Branch Skin Therapy / Thrive Nutritional Health has been inspected 2 times by Alberta Health Services (Environmental Public Health) since March 7, 2025. The most recent inspection, on March 26, 2025, found no infractions.

1 of 2 inspections on record found no infractions at all. No inspections are on record from the past 12 months. 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 March 7, 2025. For example: Is reusable equipment disinfected properly?

  • 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 3 times on March 7, 2025. For example: Are cosmetic products appropriate for their intended use and being handled properly?
