Sacred Earth Botanicals - The Best Massage Lotion, Oil, Cream & Gel You Can Buy

For the 25+ years we have been selling massage & spa supplies, we've been asked numerous times what is the best lubricant on the market for performing massage, spa treatments, athletic training recovery, rehab and physical / occupational therapy work. Historically, we have been hesitant to answer this question because each brand and product family has its benefits and limitations.

For reference, the oil, lotion, cream and gel brands we have carried include include Amber, Biotone, Bon Vital, Earthlite, Lotus Touch, Massage FX, Pure Pro, Sacred Earth Botanicals, Soma Silk, Soothing Touch, TheraPro, and several others. 

While times have changed, some new brands have come to market and others have gone, one has emerged to not only stand the test of time but lead the market by way of their commitment to produce an environmentally friendly and cost effective product that is as good for their customers / clients as it is for the planet.

It is our feeling that Sacred Earth Botanicals is far and away the best money can buy, and that statement comes down to three things: who they are as a company, what they do before and after making their product, and of course the product that they make. Let me tell you more...

Discover the Natural Essence of Sacred Earth Botanicals

In a world increasingly conscious of what we put on our bodies, Sacred Earth Botanicals shines as a beacon of purity, quality, and sustainability. Made with integrity and crafted with care, these products embody a holistic approach to wellness — benefiting both user and planet.

Why Sacred Earth Botanicals Stand Out

Organic Excellence Rooted in Trusted Certification

Their facility is certified organic by both USDA Organic and Oregon Tilth, ensuring that everything they produce meets stringent standards of purity, environmental stewardship, and ethical farming practices.

Clean, Conscientious Formulations

The line is cruelty-free - Sacred Earth Botanicals never tests on animals. Ingredients are chosen with respect to sensitive skin: many products are nut-oil free, gluten-free, paraben-free, and hypoallergenic, making them accessible to a wide range of clients.

Plus, they strive for eco-friendly packaging and apply sustainable business practices, minimizing environmental impact throughout their production lifecycle.

Thoughtful Craftsmanship from the Source

Handcrafted in Eugene, Oregon, each product is designed with therapist and client wellness in mind - that means gentle, effective formulations in packaging that’s kind to the Earth.
