When she started the business three years ago, Edith Almanza didn't imagine she'd be operating her massage therapy company, Time to Unwind, in downtown Holland. But after making a few inquiries this summer about an open space at 64 East 7th Street, the move all of the sudden made sense.
Almanza and business partner, Dinorah Lara, say business is thriving since relocating to Holland's downtown in July. "It's an awesome feeling," Almanza says about the move from their suite at 680 28th Street. "In the other space, you rent your space and go your own way. When we went downtown, we felt like we were part of a community."
The site downtown offers more exposure to clients who have spread the news of the business by word-of-mouth, she says. "We're excited to see what happens when we get all of our loose ends tied up and start advertising," Lara says.
The store offers a wide selection of massage therapy, including therapeutic, hot stone, Russian, Swedish, Atshiapsu, prenatal and infant massages and reflexology. It also offers chair massages in which therapists usually work at special events hosted by other companies and organizations.
Time to Unwind is staffed with three other therapists and is open by appointment before and after normal business hours. "We try to accommodate people's schedules," Almanza says. Appointments can be made by calling 616-218-0068.
