Our
name Jamu ~ Jamu is taken from the time-honoured
Javanese medicinal remedies and tonics,
created from fresh blended ingredients,
which are sold everyday on the streets of
Indonesia. Capturing the life force of indigenous
plants, flowers, roots, barks, herbs, fruits
and spices, this holistic therapy for inner
and outer beauty is derived from the science
of Asian Homeopathy and Aromatherapy enhanced
by Chinese, Arabic and Ayurvedic influences.
Eluding the theories and logic of modern
medicine, Indonesian jamu is a traditional
healthcare system, sometimes known for curing
even the so-called “incurable”
diseases. Dating back to the 9th century,
jamu was made on a daily basis by the women
of each village household; and the secrets
of these healing recipes for beauty, vitality
and health have been passed down through
the generations from mother to daughter.
