About Us
Our Story, Our Purpose
The inception of ManaSina, Dr. Sultan’s pioneering health and wellness brand, stemmed from a convergence of personal need and professional insight that highlighted the need for harmonious health solutions. Her mother’s cancer diagnosis and subsequent struggle with the severe side effects of traditional medications drove Dr. Sultan to seek more gentle and supportive options. This personal quest was mirrored in her professional life, where she saw many patients seeking effective, natural alternatives and complementary options to the overwhelming array of conventional pills and supplements. Many of these patients were frustrated by adverse reactions to commercially available products and they sought safer, simpler, and more integrated health solutions.
Fueled by these experiences, Dr. Sultan saw an opportunity to innovate within the health and wellness industry. She recognized that by creating blends of tinctures and essential oils, she could offer products that not only harnessed the synergistic effects of combining multiple functional botanicals but also simplified the consumer's regimen. These blends would be easier to use and more practical than managing multiple individual supplements, thereby enhancing adherence and experience for the user. Initially focused on women's health, the brand has evolved to include products that are gender-neutral, supporting a broad spectrum of health needs and benefiting all genders.
ManaSina’s Commitment to Quality and Ethical Practices
ManaSina's botanical blends are meticulously crafted based on the latest scientific research and are sourced from ethically responsible companies committed to sustainability. These products, designed as tinctures and essential oils, embody Dr. Sultan’s belief in proactive, preventative health care. They are formulated to work synergistically with the body's own processes, enhancing the body’s natural ability to maintain health while being convenient and straightforward to use.
While ManaSina's offerings are rooted in extensive research and traditional practices, they are not intended to diagnose or treat any medical conditions. Developed under the guidance of Dr. Sultan, these blends are intended to complement and provide supportive care alongside many prescribed medical regimens but should not be seen as substitutes for professional medical advice. Instead, they are crafted to support a broad range of health needs across all genders, providing a supplementary route to health maintenance and preventive care, aiming to improve the overall quality of life.
Our Founder
Bridging Traditional Remedies with Modern Medicine
Founded by Dr. Aya Sultan, a visionary who seamlessly blends the worlds of conventional medicine and traditional healing, ManaSina is a testament to the power of integrating these realms.
Dr. Sultan is a US-trained, double board-certified physician with a diverse educational background. She has taught and studied at prestigious institutions such as Stanford University, the University of Hawaii, and New Jersey Medical School, blending her roles as an educator and researcher. Her expertise is further enriched by a PhD in Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics from the University of Maryland, Baltimore, and an Integrative Medicine Fellowship at the Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine at the University of Arizona.
Drawing on her rich heritage and connection to both the Middle East and Hawaii, she sought to meld the profound natural philosophies of these cultures with cutting-edge medical science. The result is ManaSina, a name that combines the Hawaiian “Mana,” meaning the powerful, life force in nature, with “Sina,” derived from Ibn Sina, a 10th-century Persian physician considered by many as the father of early modern medicine known for his holistic approach to health.
