Who We Are
Dragon Blood Balm was started by Boris Bernadsky and Roman Kudryashov over a warm bowl of ramen in NYC in early January, 2018.

Our Beliefs
-
People + Needs First
We created Dragon Blood Balm because it filled a need for us. We actively use our own products, and we want to make sure it works for you too. Which means that...
-
We Won't Compromise on Quality
Quality matters. A good product will save you time (healing), will make you physically better, will save you money (spend less but get better results)... and if it doesn't work, then why bother making it?
-
Slow, Steady, and Sustainable
When we decided to turn a passion project into a full fledged business, we wanted to build something sustainable. Sustainable business practices means that we're okay with growing slowly if that means everything we do is high quality. Sustainable production means that we try to source ingredients that are not only good for you, but good for the environment as well.
