About us

Nikolai Manek
Founder/CEO
My journey with TerraMD, an integrative medical company comprised of Ayurveda doctors, yoga therapists, and physicians, began with a deep-rooted passion for holistic medicine. As a child, I embraced vegetarianism and the idea of caring for my body as a whole. However, my true commitment to integrative medicine was ignited by a series of devastating personal losses.
At the age of 16, I lost my grandfather to diabetes and his third heart attack, when he was only in his 60s. The pain of his loss was followed by the unimaginable agony of watching my little brother succumb to cancer, as no one could halt its progression. Later, my mother also passed away from cancer, leaving me with a fierce determination to fight this dreadful disease if I ever had the chance.
Through my work in an international yoga school, where I teach yogic philosophy and Eastern psychology, I began connecting with healthcare professionals from diverse backgrounds. These enriching conversations rekindled my long-held dream of establishing a global healthcare collective, leading to the birth of TerraMD.
I strongly believe that medicine should be preventive and should view each individual as a complete system, capable of self-healing when in perfect harmony. Today, we are at a pivotal point in human knowledge and understanding, where we can effectively combine common sense, ancient wisdom, and modern research to create powerful healing strategies. TerraMD is a testament to this belief, striving to integrate the best of Eastern and Western medicine to help our patients thrive. That is our mission, and that is what we do.
