About Us

Our Philosophy

We believe that wellness is our natural state and that humanity and nature are inseparable. Rooted in the ancient wisdom of Sri Lanka, we embrace the understanding that the environment and all living things have evolved in harmony with human consciousness and conduct.

Inspired by the sacred Coconut Tree, revered in Eastern philosophy as the Kalpavruksha, the Tree of Life that emerged at the dawn of the Kalpa to serve humanity, we recognise nature’s abundance and its ability to provide for basic human needs. Just as no part of the coconut tree goes unused, we believe that nothing in nature exists without purpose or value.

We believe in the wisdom of the Aggañña Sutta, that imbalance, illness, and suffering arise when humanity departs from its innate state of harmony through greed (rāga), hatred (dvesha), and delusion (moha). From this transformation emerged the plant life of the world, born of the dispersed energies of humanity’s primordial state and carrying within it the healing qualities once inherent to humankind.

We believe in the teachings of ancient Ayurveda and Chinese medicine, which hold that disease arises from imbalances of Vata, Pitta, and Kapha, reflecting the underlying forces of greed, hatred, and delusion. Wellness, therefore, is not something to be acquired but a state to be restored.

We believe in the legacy of Jīvaka Komarabhacca, the great physician who returned empty-handed when tasked by his master to find a plant with no medicinal value, for he understood that every plant possesses the potential to heal.

We believe in the doctrine of Hippocrates, who recognised the body’s innate capacity to heal when supported by proper nourishment, balance, and a harmonious way of living.

We believe in natural wellness, the restorative power of nature to heal, rejuvenate, and sustain life.

Our Vision

Our vision is to reconnect modern life with the timeless wellness wisdom of herbs, nature, and traditional practices of Sri Lanka.

Our Mission

Our mission is to bring traditional herbal wellness into modern life by using herbs and natural ingredients for aromatherapy, personal and household wellness, skincare, and hair care, in forms that are effective, convenient, accessible and as close to nature as possible.

Our Story

Caveman Redux began as a passion project between a law student, Yasanga Senadeera, and a chemical engineering student, Nethmi Hewage, brought together by a shared belief in the power of natural healing and traditional wellness practices of Sri Lanka. In 2019, their experiment started with handcrafted herbal bath bombs, made in small batches. What began as a curious experiment soon revealed a deeper insight: a lack of all-natural wellness products and raw ingredients in Sri Lanka. Driven to bridge this gap, they set out to build a brand that reimagines ancient wellness traditions for the modern world, rooted with authenticity, backed by science, and crafted with care. 

Thanks to a community of like-minded wellness enthusiasts, well-wishers, and benefactors, Caveman Redux quickly grew beyond its roots. With a commitment to studying traditional wellness practices of Sri Lanka and beyond, our founders and colleagues have dedicated themselves to a lifelong pursuit: Reviving and bringing back, or to “Redux”; ancient wisdom, the “Caveman”; to create accessible, nature-inspired wellness products. Thus the slogan, "Where Lifestyle Meets Nature".

Today, Caveman Redux continues to innovate, bringing the benefits of time-honoured traditions into the hands of those seeking a balanced, healthful lifestyle. We are committed to preserving and celebrating the traditional knowledge of Sri Lanka, a land blessed with an extraordinary heritage and a remarkable diversity of therapeutic plant life.
