Founded by biologist Sonia Kalra, Naturemary is a Canadian, award-winning wellness brand dedicated to developing high-performance, plant-based solutions for pain relief, skincare, and overall wellness. With a deep understanding of natural bioactive compounds, Sonia pioneered BioTerpene™ Technology, a science-driven approach that enhances the body's ability to manage pain and inflammation naturally. As a GMP-compliant manufacturer, Naturemary ensures the highest quality standards in every product. The brand has been featured in Vogue, Vanity Fair, and other top publications, gaining recognition for its innovative formulations. Naturemary’s mission is to create fast-acting and targeted relief for skin and body using plant terpenes and with clean, natural ingredients.

I do this work because I lived the pain I’m now helping others relieve it. For over a decade, I battled PMDD—a severe and often misunderstood hormonal disorder that affected my body, mind, and identity. My symptoms mimicked everything from anxiety to arthritis to early menopause, and yet I was repeatedly dismissed by doctors. I know what it’s like to be in pain, to not be believed, and to be told “it’s just in your head.”
That experience lit a fire in me—not just to heal, but to understand. I leaned into my background as a trained biologist from Dalhousie University, where I focused on neural plasticity and nerve regeneration. I studied plant compounds, inflammation, and the body’s own communication systems. And what I discovered changed everything: certain terpenes and plant molecules could naturally activate the body’s healing response and relieve pain—without pharmaceuticals.
That discovery became naturemary in 2020. My "why" is to bring legitimacy, science, and empathy to natural health—especially for women who have been overlooked or underserved. I believe healing should be evidence-based, accessible, and rooted in compassion.
Today, as a woman of color leading a GMP-certified manufacturing company in Canada, I bring both science and lived experience to the table. I do this work because no one should have to fight so hard to feel better. And because nature—when guided by science—can change lives.
