Aria founded Jadewell after witnessing firsthand how Chinese Herbal Medicine transformed her partner’s life. He lives with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, a complex connective tissue disorder that affects nearly every system in his body. For years, he relied on over ten daily medications to manage symptoms like chronic pain, migraines, fatigue, and more. Aria, who grew up around Traditional Chinese Medicine, had seen its impact on everything from acne to fibromyalgia—but this was different. After trying Chinese Herbal Medicine, her partner went from barely able to get out of bed to waking her up at 6AM for a morning run. His health improved. His energy came back. He started a business—and so did she. But Aria quickly realized how hard it is for most people to access this kind of care. Herbal prescriptions are expensive, hard to navigate, and often overlooked in Western systems. With over 150 million Americans living with a chronic condition, she saw an urgent need for something better. jadewell is her answer—a modern, affordable, transparent path to plant-based healing that meets people where they are.
