Any concerns related to human rights issues with foreign manufacturing are admirable, and we share in these concerns. All manufacturing facilities used to produce Essence products operate ethically, and in full compliance with all workplace laws and regulations. Additional information on Essence's Foreign Manufacturing Policy can be found below.

To best illustrate our policies and practices relating to foreign manufacturing, we offer the following: The facilities that currently produce our portable massage tables also produce massage and fitness equipment that is sold at Sam's Club (a division of Wal-Mart) under the LifeGear brand name (our parent corporation). Wal-Mart shares your concern for global human rights and environmental stewardship, and as such, they conduct routine (unscheduled) inspections to make certain that all human rights and environmental regulations are continually followed. We have included a direct excerpt from Wal-Mart's corporate web site that addresses this issue, to better explain their policy and the process.
