The Full Story
"Jivana" is the feminine conjugation of the word meaning "from Jupiter"- the planet of expansion and abundance.

Jivana Wellness Co. was founded in 2021, born from a passion for creating handmade skincare products and inspired by my own healing journey. As a woman with PCOS and the mother of a special needs child, I have experienced firsthand the profound power of embracing a more holistic lifestyle. What began as a hobby (making topical remedies for friends & family) has gradually expanded into something deeper: to address the root causes of chronic health challenges, not just their surface-level symptoms.
Before Jivana, I earned degrees in Business and Gemology and spent nearly a decade in corporate roles. In 2021, my husband and I made a pivotal decision: we left the hum of the densely packed suburbs and relocated to the idyllic beauty of Milford. I quit my job and stepped fully into a slower, more intentional way of life. This shift has led me down a path of deep reflection, study, and practice. Healing, I've found, is often less about what we can gain and more about what we need to let go of...
My journey has shown me that sometimes, the way forward requires a return to foundations. My guiding belief, reflected in Jivana's slogan: "Ancient healing for modern disease", is that modern life often pulls us out of alignment with what's healthy for the mind, body, and soul. As a Vitalist, I trust in the innate wisdom of every body. When you come to me, I won't do the work for you; I guide you to walk into your own healing journey. In a world that often encourages us to look outward for solutions, we can lose touch with our sense of empowerment and become insatiably extractive. When we learn to embrace our own magic and relationship with Nature- that is when true healing starts to take place.
In my practice, I utilize non-invasive diagnostics and melothesia to gain an understanding of the energetics behind a condition, rather than pharmacological models or conventional diagnoses. Local plants also play a central role in my approach. I believe that wild plants are uniquely suited to support those who live alongside them. For this reason, the herbal remedies that I craft are almost always wildcrafted or sourced locally- an intentional effort to honor the plants of our bioregion and the wisdom they carry.
My hope is to offer a space where healing feels accessible, purposeful, and aligned- where we can come home to ourselves, step into reciprocity with the world around us, and embrace a life of health, balance, and purpose.
