Gifts of Nature Organics

At Gifts of Nature Organics, we hand-make all natural and organic hair, body and skincare products for women, men, children and babies. Our company possesses a passion to create everyday body care products for your entire family, free from any harsh chemicals or irritants. We use our vast collection of carrier and essential oils along with vegetable-based ingredients from around the world to handcraft our health promoting products. Our effective skincare products will always be free of synthetic fragrances, dyes, chemical enhancers and preservatives, chemical toxins, parabens and carcinogens.

Gifts of Nature Organics originally held a storefront in Manasquan, NJ and in 2016 relocated to Howell, NJ which provided the opportunity to offer natural and organic spa and salon services to the community. Our Howell wellness center is home to International Physical Therapy, A Healing Touch at IPT, and our Gifts of Nature Organics retail store.

Our Founder

Our founder, Judy Ryan, is a licensed physical therapist holding additional certifications in Clinical Aromatherapy, American Reflexology, and is Vodder trained in Manual Lymphatic Drainage. Judy has over 25 years of experience collaborating with professionals in the medical field to provide care for patients recovering from cancer, chronic pain, post surgical wounds, sports and trauma injuries, diabetic ulcers, severe burns, persistent infections and more.

She draws inspiration from her physical therapy practice to create a menu of products that promote health, protection and relief. Judy’s dedication, experience and strong commitment to patient education is the backbone of her prescription-based and preventative care programs.

About Our Products

Ingredient Sourcing

We select the finest ingredients from around the world and blend them with great care to create products that deeply nourish, comfort and protect the body. Environmental factors such as soil properties, temperatures, region and cultivation practices all pose a significant factor on the effectiveness of any essential oil. At Gifts of Nature Organics we only source plant based ingredients from Organic Farms throughout Europe and the United States.  This ensures that you, the end user, are getting the highest quality product available. Our Lavender, for instance, is native to Provence, France and is used extensively throughout Europe to promote the healing of acute burns, bites, chronic wounds and resistant infections. Carrot Seed is an ultra rich source of Beta Carotene, the natural version of vitamin A, and harvested most prominently from Denmark. Helichrysum from Italy is prized for its wound healing properties due to rich volcanic soil neighboring countries cannot reproduce. Our organic jojoba oil is prized for its ability to mimic the natural chemistry of sebum in the skin and is sourced from an organic farm in the US. These are just a few examples of how crucial proper sourcing is. You will never attain the same chemistry found in these diverse locations from an organic hothouse in Oregon. Soil properties are one of the most important contributors to the character and effectiveness of plant material.

Real-World Tested

A hospital-trained Aromatherapist with a long medical background, Judy Ryan had the unique ability to couple her extensive knowledge of human anatomy as a physical therapist with the efficacy of plant based science to formulate products that have been based on clinical research and applied clinically to aid recovery of diabetic wounds, radiation burns associated with cancer treatments and chronic pain. By donating products to patients in a clinical setting it allowed her to evaluate and refine a product line which now includes treatments for pain, wound care, cold and flu preventatives, acne and blemishing, just to name a few. These scientific formulas have been proven to work safely and effectively on adults, children and infants. Her love of nature (a Master Gardener’s Certificate in 2014) has led Gifts of Nature Organics to prepare products which are completely non-toxic, free of parabens, non-GMO and animal cruelty free. Our team is instilled with pride knowing we are a completely “Earth friendly” company and that we are dedicated to producing products that truly make a difference in the quality of our clients lives.

How Its Made

Each product we create is hand poured, not machine generated to ensure that the exact concentration and synergistic blend of ingredients is reflected in every single product. Some essential oils must blend in the cream base for several days before additional oils are added to allow the full expression of each oil and plant material.  Products made by machine are unable to reproduce these results. To provide added protection of the product, we only use cobalt blue or amber jars which block sunlight from entering the base, and unlike plastics, do not leach residue into our formulations thus compromising the quality or integrity of the product.   In addition to our standard products which are formulated with care from years of medical research, we can customize our products to suit your particular needs and preferences.
