My Story
At a crossroads in my life I decided to take a break from everything and walk the Camino de Santiago, a 780km pilgrimage across Spain.
Equipped with 2 pairs of pants, 2 t-shirts, socks, toiletries and a jar of cream I made to support my muscles and joints on this exciting but strenuous adventure, I started the hike.
Walking the Camino isn’t easy and is especially hard on the feet. I hadn’t given a lot of thought to how much discomfort many people experience, but along the way I met people whose feet were blistered and sore and who were experiencing muscle cramps and fatigue. My technique was to rub vaseline on my feet every morning before putting on my socks and walking boots as well as to apply my own muscle and joint cream morning and evening.
Days turned into weeks and without any pain or discomfort I reached Santiago 33 days later.
My Liveeka moment came when I realised that my jar of cream helped me every step of the way.
I felt that it was an idea worth sharing and so the idea of creating the natural medicines company Liveeka was born….
