Improve Your Health As You Unwind at Kamloops' Luxury Ginseng Spa
The Chinese have understood the benefits of Ginseng for thousands of years. Not only does it provide energy and relieve stress, but it aids in the normalization of blood sugar, reduces fine lines and wrinkles, treats acne, and stimulates the production of collagen. There seems to be little that this versatile herb can't do.
Sunmore Healthtech is a Ginseng-focussed company in Kamloops, BC. Their premium Ginseng is grown in and around Kamloops, processed into more than 50 products at their Ginseng Factory on the Kamloops City Limits Flavours Trail, and used as a key ingredient in a number of the luxury treatments offered in their East-meets-West Ginseng Spa.
Journalist Lauren Hjalmarson recently visited both the factory and the nearby spa for KamloopsBCNow. Her video report offers look at the interiors of each location.

Philosophy
My interest in bodywork began when I noticed a difference in my overall wellbeing by beginning a self-care regimen and receiving a variety of massages, facials and reiki sessions and making my health a priority. Stress cannot be completely eliminated from our lives, but I find massage and self-care treatments helps to balance stress, reduce or prevent pain and improve our overall wellbeing. If I can be a part of helping someone accomplish their wellness goals, I feel blessed.
