Frequently Asked Questions

Why are there herbs & spices in our products?

We use herbs and spices in our grain filled items to enhance the benefits of these products through the incorporation of aromatherapy. Aromatherapy is the practice of using the essence of various flowers, herbs, spices, and trees to promote health and wellbeing through inhalation. Aromatherapy has many applications; in our products you will find that we use dried forms of various herbs and spices. We believe that we can capture the benefits of these herbs and spices through the sense of smell.

Lavender: Lavender has a fresh clean aroma and blends well with many other essences. We use dried lavender buds in most of our products because it is widely accepted as a sleep aid and known to reduce mental/emotional stress, and anxiety.

Ginger: Ginger has a very unique earthy aroma and is well know for aiding in digestion, improving circulation, and opening airways clogged by mucus from common colds and flu.

Mint: Mint has a fresh grassy aroma. We use mint in our invigorating products, as it is believed to stimulate energy, aid in mental clarity, promote circulation, and help relieve headaches.

Chamomile: Chamomile has a deep but subtle aroma. We use dried chamomile because it is widely accepted as a calming agent in any form.

Clove: Clove has a very unique, spicy aroma and is believed to have harmonizing effects. We use clove to bring dimension and depth to our sachet mixtures.

Why do we use grains & seeds to fill our products?

We use natural flax seeds and rice in almost all of our products. We began this method of filling our products as a way to incorporate heat therapy without the use of electrical cords and plugs.

Flax Seeds: We use flax seeds because they retain heat when microwaved. Flax seeds are amazing because they naturally emit moisture when heated and then reabsorb the moisture back into their core as they cool down.

Rice Grains: We use rice because it retains heat when microwaved. Rice is amazing because it naturally emits moisture when heated and then reabsorbs the moisture back into its core as it cools down. We also love how rice allows our products to contour to your unique shape!
