Knowledge is the root of all our work and creation of products and offerings at BetterBonds. In this section, we intend to share essential knowledge for readers and users and will also publish some educational intensives that will be reserved exclusively for our future members and partners.
We are a company that has believed in altering the landscape of health, wellness and care. We have done so with a comprehensive approach that spans research, marketing, brand development, product development, building a knowledge base, educating our clients and the market, developing the market, and building a new frame and outlook for healing through the offerings of nature AND by altering how we–on supply and demand side–approach wellness.
Our Knowledge Base, which is constantly developing, publishes relevant snippets of our insights, experience, and outlook.
Good To Know:
Making Informed Decisions About Our Products/Offerings
Currently, most of the information is in brochure format, and a shop is not enabled. We are however making some products available on special demand for our regular clients in Pakistan, and some foreign clients. This is on a case-to-case basis.
You are advised to read the information, and then do your own research on the Internet, speak to your healthcare providers and doctor(s), and obtain a good idea of your needs and limitations in case you want to place an order or inquiry with us. If you want to simply read the information, great, but cross-check and don’t rely on the first thing you read, alone. Often, a person needs various data points, experiences, anecdotes and facts before they can decide what will suit them, or what to believe in or even make use of.
All information is not useful or relevant to a person, nor all products suit them partly due to each person’s unique physiology and mindset, and partly because as herbalists BetterBonds believes that local solutions and what is in a person’s own environment is often the best solution for them. We advocate that only in case of advanced conditions or conditions for which cure is rare that you reach out wherever you find a solution.
The Himalayas have some medicine that is rare and precious, and treats rarer and more acute conditions. We are best suited to serve that specialist need.
THIS INFORMATION BLOCK, AND THE REST OF THE INFORMATION ON THIS WEBSITE IS NOT MEDICAL, PROFESSIONAL OR CLINICAL ADVICE. We took a folk practice and began codifying and organizing it, and there will be a longer process until it becomes more fully clinical, professional and licensed.
A Herbal Shop With a Difference
Please know that we are a folk medicyne company, essentially a folk herbs+crystals shop that branched out in these ways:
✔ we developed our own in-house products and formulations
✔ we researched the market, developed products accordingly, and solicited and incorporated user feedback
✔ we research the herbs that we work with, and we discovered and made use of new herbs
✔ we also found new uses and formulations using a mix of intuition + spiritual guidance, Internet research and academic papers
✔ we have a larger agenda to provide remedies that work
✔ we do targeted healing–and have developed case studies and developed databases
✔ we believe that we are developing a new modality and practice of healing
It gets more complex than that, but this is the basic framework.

No Straight Answers In Folk Medicyne
The principles and methods of folk medicyne differ radically from the one-size-fits-all approach of military-industrial medical complex. In the latter, there are fixed formulations produced in mass quantities, and they generally fit the population, with some variation in dosages based on age. Folk medicyne is more algorithmic than that. It is not a lie, it is just too complex for one-size-fits-all answers.
This is why you need basic information such as that provided by us, input from a practitioner, and your own understanding and decision-making, or at least your ability to give mostly correct information about yourself. In alternative methodologies you need to add perspectives until you have better information in hand. You also need to see how things work for you, then report back to your healthcare provider for any adjustments or update your mental model and database for your own decision-making. In this way of healing, you don’t get sure and fixed answers but must rather remain interactive and perpetually aware. What can be guaranteed is that you are being given what is being promised and that the quality is of or above the standard being promised.
