Jadewell is not a replacement for psychiatric care or therapy. Traditional Chinese Medicine works best as a complementary approach alongside professional mental health support.
If you are experiencing:
Thoughts of self-harm or suicide
Severe depression affecting your ability to function
Mental health crisis
Please contact your mental health provider immediately or call 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline).
TCM is most effective when integrated into comprehensive mental health care that includes therapy and/or psychiatric treatment as appropriate.
Patient Success Story
I've been in therapy for years and on Lexapro for three. Therapy helps me understand my anxiety, and medication takes the edge off, but I still struggled daily.
My anxiety wasn't just mental. My chest felt tight constantly. My stomach was always upset. I couldn't sleep because my mind was going at 10 different directions all night.
I'd wake up exhausted.
My psychiatrist said my medication was at the right dose. My therapist said I was "doing the work." But I still felt like I was white-knuckling my way through life.
Within three weeks with Jadewell, I noticed my sleep improving. I was falling asleep faster and staying asleep longer. That alone made a huge difference in my anxiety levels.
By week 6, the physical symptoms started calming down. My chest didn't feel as tight. My stomach settled. I could take a full breath without feeling like something was sitting on my chest.
My therapy became more effective. When your body isn't in constant fight-or-flight mode, you can actually process emotions instead of just surviving them.
I still take my Lexapro. I still see my therapist weekly. But Jadewell gave me the missing piece. It's like my nervous system finally got the message that it's safe to relax."

Where are jadewell herbal ingredients sourced from?
The ingredients we use are carefully researched and sourced to ensure that they are high quality. We source from facilities that comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) and the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA). In addition to these major regulations, we also source from facilities that maintain compliance with lesser-known regulations, such as the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES).
How do I take my formula?
Signature Formulas come as tea pills in glass bottles, small concentrated herbal pills taken with water, no preparation needed. Custom Formulas come as concentrated granules in a reusable glass jar with a measuring spoon; stir spoonfuls into warm water. Your exact directions are included with every shipment.
