Mary went through a personal experience 40 years ago that changed her life path and established her connection with Chinese herbal medicine.

Still childless after 13 years of marriage, Mary longed to become a mother. For years she travelled from country to country and visited top experts in the field, but without success. Nonetheless, her grandmother, a Chinese herbalist, gave her hope through a herbal treatment.

After three and a half years she became pregnant. The expectant mother's delight was shared by the rest of her family too. This was the point when she made up her mind to carry on her grandmother's work and devote her life to herbal medicine research, development and promotion.
