Read the label first.
Nineteen ingredients go into Haven's Joint Balm. Niamh Byrne formulated every one of them and makes the balm by hand. Most skincare keeps that list folded away at the bottom of a page.

Small batches, made by the person who wrote the formula
Haven is not a white label range with somebody else's blend inside it. Niamh formulates and hand makes the products, which is the only reason the full list can sit on the front page at all.
Niamh Byrne
Haven was founded in 2021. Niamh has worked as a holistic therapist for more than ten years, trained in formulation with Formula Botanica and the Robert Tisserand Institute, and is a certified Pilates instructor.
I believe pain may be part of life, but suffering doesn't need to be.
