About us

We are Ryan & Andi. A husband and wife team from the UK.

Our journey into herbalism started over 25 years ago when we first met, Ryan needed a liniment called dit da jow for Kung Fu. In the days before the internet was a thing jow was impossible to find, so we decided to make our own.

Since then we have always maintained a keen interest in herbal remedies and holistic therapies.

We first came up with the idea for Herbal Holistic around 2019, we were making supplements for ourselves and then Covid struck. We soon found our friends and family were interested in our supplements.

Ryan is the formulator, he’s always creating something whether it’s supplements, whiskey, tattoo balm or fragrance candles. He loves nothing more than being creative.

 I’m Andi, I’m a Midwife, Nurse, Wife, Mother and Grandmother.

I started my career in psychiatric care, I quickly moved along into general nursing then specialised in infectious diseases. From there I moved into HIV research which was a real eye opener. I went to Malawi working alongside the HIV Drs and nurses.

Whilst there I had the opportunity to work alongside some of the midwives and after seeing the terrible conditions some of the mothers and babies were in, I felt inspired to retrain as a midwife. So, I did!

I first came up with the idea for Yoni oil a few years ago, after hitting the menopause at 100mph!

I suffered from all of the usual symptoms of menopause but the one that took me by surprise the most was the dreaded dry vagina.

In my capacity as a midwife we suggest perennial massage to our pregnant ladies, this helps to reduce tension and tears during child birth. I soon made the connection between perennial massage and vaginal health.

This led to my journey into discovering yoni massage and yoni oils.
