F A L L 2 0 1 9 | NORTH BAY WOMAN 55 KM HERBALS Aromatherapy & Plant-Based Skincare Dillon Beach, CA | 707.878.2980 | www.kmherbals.com Kim Manley is the founder and creator of KM Herbals, Inc. - a practicing herbalist, aromatherapist, massage therapist, reiki practitioner, and a celebrated educator. In 1992, Kim was a new mother. Concerned about the harsh chemicals used in mainstream baby care products, she began creating a small collection of gentle and soothing skincare formulas at home for her baby girl - planting the seed from which her business has since grown. Now offering everything from skincare treatments to hair and body formulas, KM Herbals supplies the same tender and carefully crafted products for loved ones of every age! From the start, Kim asserted the importance of quality raw ingredients at a time when notions of 'holistic wellness' were only just forming! A pioneer in this space, Kim held a dedicated vision of 'wellness' as an accessible way of life and authentic beauty, developing from the inside out, that have laid the groundwork for the thriving and respected industries each are today. Nestled along the shoreline in Dillon Beach, KM Herbals offices and on-site permaculture garden are nourished by the sun and sea breezes. Here, we harvest ingredients to make our very own organic and wildcrafted herbal infusions and extracts, yielding artisanal batches of products hand-crafted with care. We harness the power of botanicals by making each product fresh when you order to bring you the most potent product possible. Every batch is gently crafted to preserve natural color, aroma, and therapeutic integrity at every step. Holding over twenty-five years of experience crafting professional-quality spa and wellness product for our community, we are proud to be planted in Sonoma County and grown by women. We believe in self-care as the first step to self-love, in empowerment through education, and in the revolutionary power of botanicals. PROFILE ADVERTISEMENT
