It is named after the house I live in "The Vine", in England's Cotswold Hills region where I first prepared and packaged the creams and powders myself.

Now all the Vine Herbal Products are professionally manufactured using ingredients that comply with British Herbal Pharmacopoeia (BHP) standards. Most of our products are based on Chinese herbal remedies which are now used by many successful race horse and competition trainers.

My wife Jill owns and runs one of the largest equestrian centre in the Cotswold's stabling 80 horses or more so we have plenty of horses to trial on before they are offered to you.

Our herbal products are used and endorsed by top competitors, race horse trainers, veterinarians and everyday people like you and me.

During my racing days i understood the many problems trainers had to overcome to get horses on the track and the difficulty they had in using products that they could not compete on.

One day after reading an article in a magazine on how to make your own comfrey cream i had ago, and the results were amazing, Jill could not believe how good the creams were for cuts and sores. The only problem was because we were making so many the kitchen was not big enough so i had to do something about it.

I found a cosmetic company in Scotland who would manufacture the creams exclusively for Vine Herbal Products and still do to this day. Our lotion and powders are manufacture by a local company who only produce Chinese remedies for the human market so quality of all products are of the highest standards.

So the rest is history. We have 16 unique products designed to aid trainers in any discipline with every day problems.
