Looking for excellent organic/natural lotion

[happyjoy]

Hello

I would like to know what lotion you use and why.
I have tried many products but always ended up finding a flaw somewhere.
I would appreciate your replies if you use natural / organic or paraben free lotion in your practice.

Thank you
Julien

I just switched to thera pro unscented jojoba massage lotion. I love, love, love it! I'm not sure if its technically organic, but it is paraben free (I must have paraben free for myself as well as my clients).

Its got enough glide, but not too much. I can still use it for deep tissue. Its got jojoba and aloe as well as arnica and even kava kava and chamomile extracts! Great stuff! Not greasy, my clients really like it and noticed the change. The only thing I would say I don't like about it is that it has that "unscented" scent to it, if you know what I mean.

Otherwise I use pure grapeseed oil, but its really runny and can drip through your fingers, but I keep it on hand as a base oil when needed.

One product I don't recommend that I did purchase years ago (I'm not even sure if they still make it) because it was supposed to be all natural and organic, was a massage "balm" of sorts, I don't remember the name at this time. It came in a big plastic jar and had to be scooped out. It was safflower oil and bees wax based. Well, it smelled like bees wax and it stained the sheets terribly! Oh, it was such a mess! I kept the stuff though and used it to make herbal and essential oil based healing balms (not for massage). I even considered using it as a base to make homemade organic lip gloss!

I fell in love with the massage gel from Natural Formulations. Before, I had been using Biotone gel but really wanted something natural. I love working with gel but it isn't always easy to find in a natural version. They are a small company, but carry just everything you could want. I've never worked with any other brands and I don't know anyone who has used their lotions but you could probably get some samples.

I just did a search and I can't find it. Is it the same as Thera Pro Swedish massage lotion? I did find a Soothing Touch unscented jojoba massage lotion. Anyway, just wondering!

It is Soothing Touch! I had a jug of Thera pro grapeseed oil in front of the jojoba bottle! Ooops! Yeah, soothing touch unscented jojoba massage lotion, love the stuff! Its about $10 a gallon more than what I used to use, but its worth it!

Greetings,

I use and highly recommend Radiant Essence products from Twelve Corners (http://www.twelvecorners.com)

They are a small, local business whose products are handmade from natural infused oils, plant/flower essences, and herbs using spagyric plant alchemy (the application of alchemical working methods to the production of herbal medicines) carried out in harmony with lunar and celestial cycles.

I have yet to find a line of products I (or my clients) like near as much as those from Twelve Corners.

My favorite is their Clary Sage & Lavender massage cream which I purchase when in the States and have shipped to Prague.
