From Ancient Roots to Modern Healing
The journey of Smijin began in the rich tapestry of herbal and Chinese medicine, nurtured by a passion for natural wellness and the belief in the healing power of plants. Founders Ann and Clark Zimmerman, both practitioners of traditional medicine, experienced firsthand the transformative effects of herbal tinctures in their clinical practice. Inspired to share these benefits with a broader audience, they founded Smijin Tinctures. Utilizing modern extraction methods while honoring ancient traditions, Smijin offers pure, potent tinctures designed for daily and acute wellness, bringing centuries-old wisdom directly to your doorstep.
