Bella Timokhina Opens the Doors to a Serene, Customized Experience at Her Cozy New Spa.
Timokhina is the proud owner of Miss Bella Spa.
“I’ve always been drawn to beauty and wellness, and after training as an esthetician, I knew I wanted to create a space where self-care could be a beautiful, personalized experience,” Timokhina explained.
She said she has always been passionate about self-care and helping others feel their best, which is why she recently opened her spa inside My Gym, on the Mile of Gold, in the heart of Kirkland Lake.
“Kirkland Lake felt like the perfect place to bring a personalized, relaxing experience to people in my community,” Timokhina said. “What makes my spa unique is the focus on tailored treatments, holistic touches, and a cozy, welcoming atmosphere that feels like an escape from everyday stress.”
When you walk into the spa, you are welcomed into a serene, earthy escape inspired by nature, with a color scheme of black, white, and nude tones.
“I pay attention to the details—gentle music, soothing scents, and cozy touches like warm towels and calming teas—to create an experience where clients can truly relax and unwind,” Timokhina explained. “I also do a lot of giveaways and participation awards.”
Timokhina said she offers a wide range of services.
“I offer facials, body treatments, threading, and waxing services, all designed with relaxation and customization in mind to meet each client’s individual needs,” she said.
She added that she incorporates high-quality products, crystal-infused oils, and aromatherapy to elevate the experience.
“My treatments are personalized for every client, ensuring they leave feeling relaxed and refreshed. I use products that are natural, cruelty-free, vegan, and Health Canada approved,” Timokhina shared.
Miss Bella Spa is open to all.
“I welcome anyone seeking relaxation and self-care, whether they are professionals, parents, or individuals simply looking for a peaceful escape,” Timokhina said. “My goal is to offer an experience that makes self-care accessible and enjoyable for everyone.”
Timokhina hopes her spa becomes a trusted sanctuary where people can focus on their well-being.
“I’m also excited to collaborate with local artisans and small businesses to promote community growth and offer unique, handcrafted products,” she added. “I’m working with local creators to showcase handmade items like jewelry, crystals, and bath bombs. I’m working with other professionals in town to perfect my skills and also to promote each other’s businesses. I’m also planning special offers and loyalty programs to thank the community for their support.”
Currently, Timokhina is the sole proprietor, but she is looking forward to expanding and working with local talent as her business grows.
“I’m planning to offer wellness workshops and special events focused on relaxation and holistic health,” she said. “I also look forward to expanding my services to include more customized, luxurious treatments.” When leaving the spa, she wants every client to feel refreshed, valued, and truly pampered.
“My goal is for each visit to be a reminder of how important it is to invest in self-care and relaxation. I also want my clients to feel a little educated when they walk out,” Timokhina said.
She said opening a spa has been quite the journey.
“Balancing finances and finding the right location were my biggest challenges,” Timokhina said. “I stayed motivated by focusing on my passion for the industry, working within my means, and leaning on the encouragement of my loved ones.”
However, it has been an incredible experience for her.
“The most rewarding part is seeing my clients leave with a smile and feeling relaxed,” Timokhina shared. “Knowing I’ve made a positive difference in someone’s day is the best feeling in the world. It’s so rewarding when you can physically see the improvement in someone.”
