Our Story
We were two healthy, young women when both of our lives changed in a blink of an eye.
In 2015, Christina suddenly became very ill. After many misdiagnoses and long hospital stays, she was finally diagnosed with Lyme disease in 2017. Refusing to live a life of pills and wheelchairs, she spent the following years studying natural remedies to help heal, alleviate symptoms and pull toxins from her body. Through her research and studying her Masters in Sustainability at Harvard, she was shocked to learn how toxic our world actually is, and therefore, our bodies.
During the same time, Julie survived a traumatic assault. Despite this, she was determined to feel safe again and not let this event control her life. She knew it was going to demand serious self-love rituals to heal and reconnect with herself.
During this time, Christina and Julie were taking baths to help heal through self-care. During this time, they realized the power that a bath holds and created natural bath formulas to target symptoms. Once they experienced the impact of their natural bath formulas, they wanted to share their soaks so others could feel the same relief.
With the support of each other, the strength within ourselves, and too many baths to count, we overcame our battles. We are back to living happy and healthy lives.
Through our journey, we learned a few things…
- You are stronger than you think.
- Your health is the most important thing you have.
- Your body is your temple, and it is your duty to take care of it.
With these lessons in mind, Detox Babe was born. Developing these products have helped face our fears – being a boss in our own lives and now of Detox Babe.
Join us on our mission to help heal bodies around the world, one hot bath at a time.
