Mantreh Atashband
Bio
Mantreh Atashband is the founder of Vasanti Health. She is a government and non-profit professional experienced in managing public health programs that provide equitable health care services to diverse communities locally and internationally.
Mantreh’s strong belief in balancing Eastern and Western approaches to healthcare stem from her experience living and traveling throughout Asia and North America. Using her unique experience, Mantreh promotes holistic health care through common sense naturopathic and allopathic remedies and lifestyle alternatives. Mantreh holds a Masters degree in Public Health.
Growing up, Mantreh’s family had several principles for living a natural, healthy lifestyle. These principles seemed intuitive, but no one thought to relate them to a greater body of healthcare knowledge. As Mantreh began traveling through India and Southeast Asia, she realized that many of those intergenerational family principles were rooted in the Indian art of Ayurveda.
Vasanti Health’s first product line, the Tamba™ was born out of necessity. Like many people, Mantreh was discouraged by some conventional (allopathic) medicine and sought alternatives to support a healthy, sustainable lifestyle. For years, she dealt with digestion and skin issues. Prescribed allopathic medicine was not helping, and in some cases made the problem worse. She was desperate for a change.
'Giving back' forms the backbone of Vasanti Health. A portion of every sale is put towards promoting water sanitation initiatives in India.
