Today we’d like to introduce you to Sally Urbaniak.
Alright, so thank you so much for sharing your story and insight with our readers. To kick things off, can you tell us a bit about how you got started?
In January of 2022 while searching for a business name there were two major things I wanted it to represent, “meaning and uniqueness”. The name had to speak! It had to be genuine! “Ahuva”, is Hebrew for “Beloved Friendship”! “Symbolizing the warmth of love, friendships, and community”!
In every Medicinal Healing Creation, every Beeswax Blend Candle, and in every step of the process, including how we package our products, our hearts our engaged. It is in this way “Beloved Friendship”, as well as integrity is seen in the community. Every item is hand made from its creation to the pouring, to the packaging.
With over 35 years of experience in various areas of medicine and 4 years of research development in the areas of herbal and essential oil usage in natural medicine prior to the start of Ahuva Natural & Organic Sensations, LLC, there was a deep longing to bring relieving comfort and medicinal healing to those who suffer with an array of pain symptoms and skin conditions, The Natural Way.
Every product was and is researched to achieve the targeted outcome it is created for. It is prayed over from its beginning to its selling. It is made with utmost consideration of each and every person who may utilize its benefits. It is all about “Ahuva”, for it is made out of love and deep caring for friends in every community.
Over the last three years Ahuva Natural & Organic Sensations, LLC has evolved from its beginning with our original Beeswax Candles and a couple Medicinal Healing Salves and Balms to a full line of different products which include a Soap Line and Bath Salts. Our Salves & Balms Line consists of a Pain Line, a Moisturizing Line, a Specialty Salve Line, a Baby & Little One’s Line, and a special salve to help our furry friends with skin issues.
This year we have also incorporated our “Treasure Candle” Line, improving the development of our Beeswax Candles, and a “Treasure Chest Gifts” Line, each having a very special treasure inside and outside of each candle and within each Treasure Chest, able to be designed with desired customer choice products. In addition, on occasion, a special product is needed to meet the needs of some people. I have begun a special order line to meet these needs with regard to the salves and balms that aid in the soothing comfort and relief for so many with conditions that restrict the inclusion of some ingredients.
Along our journey I have had the opportunity to meet, share, educate, and pray with so many. I am humbled by their stories and truly cherish each one!
With every new day comes a new adventure in Ahuva Natural & Organic Sensations, LLC ! We look forward to future growth and are looking into Wholesale opportunities in the coming year, along with the opportunity to grow our product line. To God Be the Glory for He Has Done Great Things!
I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
There have definitely been some challenges along the way. Production has been achieved with the tweaking of recipes and the ability to understand which ingredients work together to gain the targeted outcome of each product. Research is constant and intriguing, I might add, and to be honest sometimes a bit frustrating in the efforts to obtain the quality of the ingredients needed for a specific creation. With that said, I am very picky! Only Natural and Organic Products are in my line, and that includes the Essential Oils used in nearly every product, including the Beeswax Blend Candles. All Essential Oils are Therapeutic Grade or Certified Organic.
As you know, we’re big fans of Ahuva Natural & Organic Sensations, LLC . For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about the brand?
Ahuva Natural & Organic Sensations, LLC is a small business with a heart to help people! It was created to bring people to the knowledge that there are alternatives to pharmaceutical products made with synthetic and man made ingredients. (Please Note, I am not speaking of Necessary Medication Needed for Specific Medical Needs! Dr’s orders come first and foremost!)
Our products are made of organic and natural ingredients that are pure and therapeutic. Every Batch is made in small quantities, unlike the big pharmaceutical name brands. They are hand made, hand poured, and hand packaged with utmost care and concern for every customer.
As the Founder and Director, Creations Manger, and Operations Manager, I specialize in product research and creation and am known for detail and absolute product integrity.
I do not take short cuts! If I can’t get a certain ingredient there have been times when another will work in its place, and sometimes the discovery is very positive. It is listed on the label and all is great! However, if I cannot get an ingredient, and there is none comparable, then I wait until what is needed can be received for production purposes.
Our brand states the integrity of our product lines. We are Natural and Organic Medicinal Healing .
Although our company is small, we are mighty! Our Might comes in our will to create and produce the best and most affective product for the need at hand. We truly care!
We offer a way of help to reduce, and sometimes eliminate, the need for oral, over the counter, pain medication. Our Skin Moisturizing Line is truly amazing and 2nd only to our Arnica, Muscle Soreness, and Headache Pain Relief Line Salves. Our Specialty Salve Line encompasses salves to aid in Burn Relief, Eczema-Psoriasis, Colds/Sinus & Headache relief with our Organic Vicks! These are tried and true products with positive results and repeat customers. “The stories are countless and they are made especially for you!”
In addition, our Treasure Candle Line is pure and completely safe for children, pets and most people with sensitivity to assorted aromas. Because the ingredients are All Organic and Therapeutic Grade, they are subtle and soothing! They will burn longer and burned correctly, they will burn completely. Each comes with explicit directions on how to burn a Beeswax Candle.
Our customers mean the world to us! They are appreciated, cared about, and listened to! Service, to us, stands for many things! The most important is kindness and consideration to our customers and the needs in which they are seeking to meet. We are here for You!
