EKS Wellness - Fast Facts

Your name: Natalie Schwenger

 

Year the company was started:  EKS Wellness officially launched in March 2023.

 

Where are the products made?

We are based in Stoney Creek Ontario, but our products are manufactured in Markham Ontario. 

 

What is the ‘key ingredient’ that makes your product line special? 

At EKS Wellness, the use of Hemp Seed Oil is a cornerstone of our product formulations. Sourced from the seeds of the Cannabis Sativa plant, hemp seed oil is rich in essential fatty acids, antioxidants, and nutrients- but it contains no cannabinoids (CBD or THC), making it safe for everyday use. We harness the remarkable benefits of this nutrient-dense oil known to support skin health, reduce inflammation, and promote overall wellness. It’s not a trend for us, it’s a commitment to clean, plant-powered healing.

  

 

 

Exploring the Vision and Core Values of EKS Wellness

LCG Foods engaged in a discussion with Natalie Schwenger, the founder of EKS Wellness to better understand the brand's mission, core values, and other topics that we thought our retail partners might want to know.

 

What motivated you to start your company and create the products that we see today? 

EKS Wellness was born from a personal need for natural, effective relief from chronic pain and inflammation caused by conditions like Rheumatoid Arthritis and Lyme Disease. Frustrated by harsh, chemical-based options, we turned to proven botanical remedies, which is how PAIN (our first product) was created. This powerful, all-natural topical blends ingredients like cayenne, turmeric, and ginger for fast, effective relief without synthetic additives. Building on that success, we created SKIN- a multi-benefit topical that hydrates, repairs, and protects the skin. Together, PAIN and SKIN embody our mission: clean, high-performance wellness rooted in nature and designed to improve daily life.

 

What are your company’s core values?

  • Integrity
    From our ingredients to our business practices, we are honest, ethical, and transparent in everything we do.
  • Excellence
    We hold ourselves to the highest standards, delivering premium, effective all natural wellness products.
  • Innovation
    We pioneer next-generation natural solutions that challenge industry norms and elevate the wellness experience.
  • Community
    We cultivate a sense of belonging and connection, supporting the well-being of the communities we serve and represent.
  • Sustainability
    We are committed to environmentally responsible practices and creating products that are as kind to the planet as they are to people.

 

 

If you could tell a retailer three things about what makes your brand different, what would they be? 

  • All EKS Wellness products are made with high-quality, all-natural ingredients and carry a Natural Product Number (NPN) from Health Canada. This ensures safety, efficacy, and compliance, offering retailers confidence and consumers peace of mind.
  • Our products come in durable, ultraviolet-protective glass jars that not only preserve potency but are also reusable, dishwasher-safe, and eco-conscious. Customers love the versatility as many repurpose them for plants, teas, or herbs, which gives the packaging a second life.
  • EKS Wellness is proudly female-founded and rooted in Canadian values of integrity, transparency, and holistic health. We’re committed to offering clean, effective alternatives to traditional health and beauty products without harmful chemicals, synthetic fragrances, or animal testing.
