New Product: Ayurvedic "thailam" treatment massage oils.
The remarkable power of Ayurvedic treatment oils
While studying Ayurveda, the traditional medicine system of India, in Kerala a few years ago, I had the opportunity to experience traditional densely medicated Ayurvedic "thailams" or treatment massage oils both as a practitioner and patient. I was surprised and impressed by how effectively the herbal medicinal constituents infused in the oil were directly absorbed through the skin. Far beyond the effects of ordinary "massage oil", and not based on either aromatherapeutic or rubefacient principles, these traditional Ayurvedic thailams were something completely different; powerful medicines with a range of effects on mind and body.

Two new Limited Edition Pierre Black products...
My very best products typically arise from personal, often chance encounters with unique and exciting ingredients of the very best quality. This year is no exception.
Raw ingredient sourcing, Mexico, Jan 2016...
White Copal is a highly prized natural aromatic tree resin, wild-harvested by the Maya people of Guanajuato state in central Mexico. The superb quality, freshness, and aroma, of this particular copal, which I personally sourced and selected in Mexico this past January, is what inspired me to create this powerful Ayurvedic “thailam” or medicated treatment oil.

Memories of India...
Some close friends of mine returned from India last year with a small amount of superb wild-harvested black frankincense for me. I was only able to make 9 bottles of this superb and densely medicinal oil. Frankincense is well known as a medicine in numerous healing traditions around the world. It is well documented as having both physical healing properties and as well as psychoactive effects.
