NutriWorks brings aromatherapy foot patches to U.S. shoppers

By AI, Created 3:33 PM UTC, May 18, 2026, /AGP/ – NutriWorks is expanding its Traditional Chinese Medicine-inspired BeautyRest reflexology foot patches into the U.S. market as demand grows for natural wellness options tied to sleep, relaxation and stress relief. The products are now sold through major online retailers, with the company pitching aromatherapy and reflexology as a drug-free nighttime routine.

Why it matters: - NutriWorks is betting that U.S. shoppers want more non-pharmaceutical options for anxiety, sleep and relaxation. - BeautyRest targets consumers looking for a simple nighttime wellness product that blends aromatherapy with reflexology-style foot patches. - The launch adds another natural-health product to a market where aromatherapy interest is expanding.

What happened: - NutriWorks, an Asian-owned company headquartered in Hong Kong, is distributing its BeautyRest reflexology foot patches in the United States. - Amy Wong, NutriWorks co-founder, said the brand is offering the patches as a way to support relaxation, deeper rest and a clearer mind. - The product is sold on Amazon.com, Walmart.com and OneLavi.com. - A 20-patch box of each variety costs $40. - NutriWorks was also featured last year on the nationally aired program “American Trends & Lifestyle”.

The details: - BeautyRest launched in Hong Kong nearly 30 years ago. - The patches use South Korean mandarin wood vinegar and black Brazilian Tourmaline crystal. - NutriWorks describes mandarin wood vinegar as a warming TCM ingredient that supports circulation and detoxification. - NutriWorks says the tourmaline crystal is used for balance, calmness and stress relief in crystal healing. - BeautyRest also contains lavender, sage, basil, ylang ylang, bergamot and bitter orange oil. - The company says the essential oils are meant to support rest, serenity, comfort, relaxation, calmness and mood. - NutriWorks says the patches are worn on the feet at night and are designed to stimulate specific points, calm the nervous system, release tension and promote sleep. - NutriWorks positions BeautyRest as different from its sister products RestoreGlow and CircuFlow because BeautyRest emphasizes aromatherapy ingredients. - The company notes that aromatherapy has broad wellness use cases, including insomnia, anxiety and pain, and cites market research projecting global aromatherapy sales of $15,172.4 million by 2030. - NutriWorks also points to a Center for Innovation in Pain Care claim that aromatic plants have been used as remedies for up to 4,000 years and that more than 17,000 scientific papers have examined aromatherapy. - The company says it sells additional product lines, including Flexi-Patch, Patch-It® and Acti-Tape.

Between the lines: - NutriWorks is framing BeautyRest as a bridge between traditional Chinese medicine and modern U.S. wellness buying habits. - The product pitch relies on a mix of wellness language, historical references and consumer-friendly retail availability. - The company is also trying to stand out in a crowded natural-health category by tying the patches to sleep support and aromatherapy rather than only reflexology.

What’s next: - NutriWorks is likely to keep pushing its “Rest, Flow and Glow” product family through U.S. retail channels. - The company says it wants to share TCM-based products more broadly with consumers in the U.S. and globally. - Buyers can find more information at NutriWorks, Walmart, OneLavi, and Amazon.
