Enhance the flow of prana (life force energy) through your body with Kailo’s chakra therapy line. Using a synergy of aromatherapy, energetic infusions and 100% organic ingredients, this collection is designed to help restore balance to the chakras, supporting optimal health and radiance for the mind-body-spirit. All of Kailo’s chakra therapy tools are ceremonially infused with 5 elements of energy work: crystals, color therapy, bija mantras, affirmations and Tibetan singing bowls that specifically correspond to each chakra. So much more than just body care. This is truly mind-body-spirit care.
Essences
Roll on concentrates emphasize fragrance while delivering a powerful dose of balance to the chakras. With Jojoba Oil as the carrier oil, the Essenes are rich in beneficial minerals, Vitamin E and antioxidants. Jojoba Oil is lightweight, non-greasy and easily absorbed, making it ideal for aromatherapy and well suited for those with sensitive skin.
Body Butters Deeply nourish and moisturize both your physical and energetic bodies with this luxuriously creamy skin superfood. With Shea Butter, Jojoba Oil and Coconut Oil, these body butters are rich in vitamins A, E and F, nutrients, antioxidants and essential fatty acids. These ingredients are known for their anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, which are effective for soothing numerous skin conditions and speeding up the healing process. For antiaging, these ingredients reduce and prevent wrinkles, boost collagen production, and keep skin healthy and protected from the damaging effects of free-radicals.
Body Oils Spread all the goodness of the Essences on your entire body using these body oils. With the same ingredients and benefits as the Essenes, the Body Oils are made using a lesser concentration of essential oils, making them ideal for larger or full body applications.

Caroline Manière
“Medicine Women, Medicine Men, Animal Spirits, Come to Me...” “They come to me, to us, and they transmit their message, their wisdom, their knowledge, their experience, their power, their brilliance, and their vibration. They accompany us, they reveal unto us, and they awaken what we bear within ourselves. They remind us of our connection with the great All and with Mother Earth.” – Caroline Manière Hailing from France, Caroline paints instinctively, follows her intuition, and lets the colors and patterns come to her; she is the only tool, aided by shamanic drumming, Icaros, Amerindian Native songs, and mantras. Listening to her heart and allowing herself to be guided, Caroline paints on copper foil surfaces as she loves the illumination, respect, and sacred majesty it provides her subjects.
