Our story
Care has always been personal.
Hello Wellness started at my kitchen table with one question: why does care that works so rarely feel good?

Where it started
The story behind every jar.
Hello Wellness didn’t begin as a business plan. It began with the people I love and my own search for relief, long before there was a name on a label. This is how we got here.
01It started in hospital waiting rooms.
Growing up, I spent a lot of time at my mom’s side through appointments, surgeries and recovery. I became her advocate before I knew the word. It left me with a deep compassion for anyone living with pain and looking for answers.
02Then it was my turn.
Living with endometriosis, I learned how it feels to have your pain dismissed. It made me determined to find natural, supportive ways to care for myself.
03A different kind of healing.
I set out on a path toward medicine, believing it was the only way I could help people. Along the way I realized healing also happens in everyday rituals: in what we touch, smell and feel, and in the quiet moments we choose ourselves.
04Every first formula was made for someone I love.
Our Pain Relief Oil began as a blend for my mom, who lives with osteoarthritis. Our Palmarosa + Bergamot Body Oil was made for a friend living with nerve pain. Our Vanilla Cream Body Butter was made for a friend healing after surgery. Seeing what those first jars meant to them is why I kept going.
05In 2020, it became Hello Wellness.
Today, every product still starts the same way: with a real person and a real need. Not a trend.
What we believe
Care isn’t a luxury you save for later. It’s how you show up for the life you want.
Who we’re for
If you’ve tried everything and still feel unheard, we made this for you.
Care should be simple, gentle and made with intention. No 12-step routines and no trends to chase. Just natural body care that fits an ordinary day and feels good to come back to, so a moment of care feels less like a luxury and more like how you live.

What we value
What we’d never trade away.

Made with you and the planet in mind.
The details may evolve as we grow. These promises won’t.
High-integrity ingredients
Responsibly grown, and as unrefined as each formula allows.

Who we are today
Woman founded, woman run, and still at the table.
We’re a small team. I’m in the studio blending and testing every formula. You’ll find us at markets, smelling jars with you and talking about what your skin needs, and at workshops where guests make something of their own.
If you’ve stopped at our booth or sent us a note, thank you. You’re why we keep going.
