The focus of our research changed as reports of nut oil allergies increased. Not only were therapists reacting to nut oils in their massage products, but so were their clients. Therapists with sore hands couldn’t deliver good treatments resulting in loss of income for themselves as well as the spa or salon. Clients who developed a post-treatment reaction often wondered what they had eaten that caused the reaction. What they didn’t realize was it wasn’t the food they ate, but the nut-oil based products that caused the problem. Massage products are ingested by the body through the skin, which can produce an allergic-like reaction which may include itching or a rash. New Life conducted extensive market research to locate an existing product line that did not contain nut oils and minimal amounts of man-made chemicals. The problem was a nut oil-free product line simply did not exist…yet. Continued strategic discussions led to the creation of a nut-oil-free product line manufactured exclusively by New Life, but what would best describe the products? We incorporated ideas from our clients, consultants and staff. New Life found a single, common thread amongst all of the ideas, touch. A member of the New Life staff suggested we incorporate the Lotus flower. This exotic water lily is unique because the flower floats on top of a lily pad and has a long stem that dives down, deep into the moist, nutrient-rich soil of the pond, thus Lotus Touch was born. Lotus Touch ingredients, like the Lotus flower, float above the rest. They are high-quality, pure, natural ingredients that provide therapeutic benefits. Every Lotus Touch product has been thoroughly researched and field tested by practicing therapists. Lotus Touch formulations and ingredient research provide you with the best professional products available. New Life promises you that Lotus Touch is formulated with the finest seed oils, botanical extracts and essential oils. We guarantee that we will never use: Nut Oils, Mineral Oils or Direct Alcohols.
