Redmint was founded by Helina Fan, who, seeking relief for her own mood swings and pain, avoided high-dose pharmaceuticals prescribed by Western doctors. Instead, she researched alternative therapies and discovered TCM. Through acupuncture, herbal medicine, massage and other TCM treatments, she began to regain her balance. “When I discovered alternative and holistic treatments that worked so well for me, I wanted to share their effectiveness, and therefore, Redmint was born,” Fan said. “Redmint is an expression of my mission to demystify powerful TCM practices and make them accessible to all.”
