In 2017 we gathered a committee in Lethbridge to organize the annual WellFest Expo. This event is a community gathering to learn and grow in wellness. Shop and learn from local wellness vendors and understand solutions available to them from experts right in their own community! Watch to join us in this amazing Expo filled with education, services, and incredible support to kick off your wellness journey - each September. Music, Make N Takes, Food, & Fun with amazing local experts. This is our Karma Event with donations from the door admission going back to a local charity of choice.
That same year, Kilkenny Services opened its first Wellness Studio in Lethbridge, providing the same great recreation, leisure, fitness, education & health programs to gather and grow as a community in an environment where everyone is not only welcome but cherished in the programs they choose. In 2019 we grew to Medicine Hat and are so excited to join the downtown businesses to grow and revitalize the core of the old gas city.

​In 2020 we PIVOT with the effects of the global pandemic resulting in the close of our storefront and the immediate halt of gathering and all things sociable..... we began a strong focus on our roots and the Natural health side of our business and Local Handmade offerings. After years of learning and experience, educating and coaching groups, and running trade fairs, markets, and school canteens we developed our Online Platform and have grown our mobile services!
In Spring 2021 we launched the 9-week Burn Out Recovery Course. Enrollment Began April 1 for the first group of students. This program has been carefully designed by healthcare professionals for healthcare professionals and community members experiencing Burn Out.

The Mom Market Collective is for everyone! Fur Moms, Plant Moms, Mom-Moms, and everyone who has ever had a mom! Bringing together local Shopping, Sips, Snacks & Tunes for an invigorating community experience at every Market!

In Spring of 2022, we partnered with FARSK Canada to begin offering Vitamin Infusions to truly elevate our Wellness offerings while complementing clinical training. This was a HUGE step for us! This means partnering with a Medical Director and building a clinical element to our current holistic health model. Patients can be reassured that they are being seen by a regulated health professional and follow a clinical intake, treatment, and discharge plan when receiving Infusion, clinical or injectable services.

Why IV Therapy?
Prevention of dis-ease.
We hope to support patients BEFORE they end up in a medical center or emergency room.
The use of IV therapy in hospitals and emergency settings is a well-known, widespread practice since the 1930s. It wasn’t until the 1960s that Dr. John Myers started injecting patients with what he called a “cocktail” of vitamins and minerals that the medical field realized the potential of IV therapy to optimize health. How is IV therapy different from taking a supplement?
Well, with IV drips, the body receives the vitamins and minerals by injecting the solution directly into the bloodstream; a process that bypasses the digestive system and allows clients to feel the positive effects instantly.
The most common benefits of IV therapy are:
• Improve hydration
• Nourish the body through vitamins, minerals and electrolytes
• Strengthen the immune system
• Enhance energy
• Boost the metabolism
• Protect against free radicals
• Regenerate cells, and improve skin conditions
