Healing Hive Massage and Bodywork | Application Preview
Healing Hive Massage and Bodywork is seeking government grants to support its expansion into a new location in Loveland, which will feature two treatment rooms and a reception area. The funds will be used to furnish and set up this larger space, allowing for the hiring of additional staff, including a reiki practitioner and possibly more massage therapists and wellness practitioners in the future.
The business aims to create a comfortable and healing environment for its clients while establishing itself as a one-stop shop for holistic services over the next five years. As it grows, Healing Hive plans to offer communal classes and weekend retreats, enhancing wellness opportunities for the community.
The business has been operating for nearly a year and has started to build trust within the community as a knowledgeable massage therapy practice. Expanding into a larger space is essential for accommodating increased clientele and offering a wider range of services. The funding would help facilitate the transition and development of this new healing environment.
In terms of competition, Healing Hive faces established spas like The Tranquil Spa and Sanctuary Spa, which offer similar services. However, Healing Hive distinguishes itself by focusing not just on physical relaxation but on creating a supportive and rejuvenating community atmosphere inspired by the interdependent nature of honey bee colonies. This unique approach aims to foster healing for both the body and mind, ultimately positioning Healing Hive as a nurturing space for wellness and growth within the community.

Funding Usage
Healing Hive is currently operating out of a very small single room in Wellington and will be expanding to a new larger space with two treatment rooms and reception area in Loveland. The new space needs to be furnished and set up for business. With the new location, there is also the opportunity to bring on employees to fill both treatment rooms. Funding will be used to create the Healing Hive environment that allows for a comfortable workspace and allows for a relaxing and healing environment for clients to receive services.

Business Plan
As Healing Hive begins to expand into a space that has two treatment rooms, rather than just one, there is room for additional practitioners to come on board. We are brining on a reiki practitioner in the current expansion and as client demand increases, will look to bring on additional massage therapists and esthetician(s). We hope to bring on other wellness practitioners, such as physical therapists, acupuncturists, doulas, and herbalists as well. Within the next 5 years, The Hive hopes to continue growing to be one stop shop for the body, mind, and spirit to rest, reset, and recharge - providing day services as well as full weekend retreats and community classes. Healing Hive has been in business for just under a year and is gaining community trust as holistic and knowledgeable massage therapy practice. As it expands to include more services and grant access to a wider community, it requires additional funds to recreate a larger space for that healing to take place. The Hive is relocating and expanding to a larger unit that needs additional furnishing to actively take on clientele. The vision is here, the community support is active, and the team is growing. Healing Hive is ready to be a place where community thrives, spirits soar, and bodies heal.

Self Identified Competition
The Tranquil Spa is well known and offers massage, nail, and skincare and lash services in Loveland. Sanctuary Spa is an upscale wellness spa that offers massage, skincare and energy work services in Fort Collins. Amara Massage Therapy and Wellness is a holistic spa offering massage therapy in Fort Collins While Healing Hive Massage is offering similar services to spas in the area, the difference is in the intension. The Hive is not simply focused on feeling or looking good, but it is focused on creating good. It is here to establish a safe space to relax and let go of the stresses of everyday life, to come together in community, and to allow the nervous system to reset so that the body AND the mind can heal. Healing Hive is inspired by honey bee colonies and the intricate interdependence each bee has among the rest. They all care for each other and work together to keep the colony strong as a whole, and they create a safe, sterile environment full of honey, beeswax, and other healing agents. The entire ecosystem in a hive is a place of healing and community. That is the energy Healing Hive brings and the vision it hope to create- a place that people can come for comfort, community, and wellness.
