Why We Love Zen Nectar

Natural pain relief is better. So say goodbye to side-effects!

Botanical extracts and essential oils, just the good stuff.

Not only is Zen Nectar good for you, it is safe for the environment, uses a recyclable glass jar, shipped in recycled packaging, and is vegan and cruelty free.

Yes, it really is Zen. :)

What does it feel like?

Like “tiny ice packs” wherever it is applied, according to one of our customers.

What does it smell like?

Citrus-y fresh! Subtle orange to uplift mood and soothing bergamot to calm nerves are the main scents. Followed up by minty fresh menthol, this scent was crafted for our sensitive migraine noses.

Why we created Zen Nectar (it’s personal…)

When I was experiencing almost daily migraine episodes, life was extremely difficult, lonely and painful. Triptans were my main line of defense. But no one told me that taking more than 2 triptans a week can cause rebound headaches. Wait, what??

In trying to get rid of my migraine, I was creating more of it!!

My neurologist recommended Botox, but I wanted to find something natural and good for my body, rather than something with unappealing side-effects.

Like a godsend, my Italian mother in law, who also battles migraine, gave me a formula of botanical extracts she has been using for years. After trying it and tweaking it, I found relief enough to take less triptans, make healthy lifestyle modifications, and break my cycle of chronic migraine. My heart’s sincerest prayer is that Zen Nectar helps you like it has helped me - may you find the sweet relief you need and freedom from pain, naturally.
