New clinic offers variety of esthetics treatments
AMMON – Miranda Ogden worked as a nurse for 13 years before realizing there was another aspect of the medical industry she loved even more. Months after launching her own clinic, she says she never dreamed this is where life would take her.
The Blackfoot woman opened Rejuvenate Health Spa inside BodyWorx Massage Therapy & Esthetics at 1558 Midway Avenue in October. It provides a variety of esthetic treatments, including laser hair removal, skin tightening and wrinkle reduction, a treatment that removes sun spots, freckles, rosacea and other conditions to improve skin tone. It also offers massages.
These services are offered in partnership with BodyWorx and Belle Medical at 3830 South 25th East, Ste. 300, in Idaho Falls. Clients can schedule an appointment for the Ammon building or an in-home treatment with friends and family.
Ogden is pleased with the response, and she’s hosting a launch event on Feb. 8 at 6 p.m. at the Midway location for the public to learn more.
Her interest in healthcare began years ago when her brother was diagnosed with a heart condition. He spent lots of time at Primary Children’s Hospital, and it made her want to help others.
She worked as a nurse in various aspects of the medical field before taking a job at Belle Medical several years ago. It was the skin-tightening treatment that prompted her to open this clinic.
“I was seeing my patients over at Belle having this loose skin (after liposuction), and we had nothing to offer them. We had a patient come in who had the (skin-tightening) service done somewhere else. I was very impressed with her results,” Ogden tells EastIdahoNews.com.
She’s hoping to offer additional services in the future and watch her clinic grow.
“I’ve got a friend who wants to provide Botox with us, so (hopefully) we can expand the options that are available to people,” she says.
The clinic is open Thursdays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and other days by appointment. To schedule a visit or learn more, call (208) 219-7882 or click here.
