From the fields where much of their ingredients are grown through to the recycling bank where the glass bottles are collected, they wish to follow the ethical principle of ‘care for others as we care for ourselves’.

Coming from a Chinese background and being brought up in Singapore, we always strongly believe that using holistic therapy like foot reflexology can help to balance the energy channels to improve well-being.
