Our founder Michelle has always felt called to support others with their healing. She pursued herbal medicine after seeing loved ones receive medical advice that told them the only answer to their struggles lay in a single prescription.
Michelle believed there was more than one way to support health and wellness concerns—so she set out to help people find answers. She found those answers must come from a place of listening and exploration. This became the heart of Apotheka Herbal’s holistic approach to health.
Some run hot, while others run cold. Some dry, others damp. All of these factors and many more are considered when formulating herbs. When we balance them, we can bring the body back to harmony. Much like us, herbs also have their own individual traits.
Herbal medicine is about finding the right match between both: Human and Herb.
This level of listening is what makes it possible for us to create herbal formulas that work.
Using the highest quality herbs, we formulate teas, tinctures, creams, and capsules to support an array of concerns such as stress, sleep, digestion, mental and emotional support, pain, and more.
Whether you’ve been using herbal medicine for decades or you’re brand new to it, we invite you to connect so we can support you wherever you’re at.
Our small but mighty team is made up of educated medical herbalists, naturopaths, and holistic nutritionists who are committed to helping you find natural solutions—while educating you along the way.
Each of our practitioners has 5-20 years of experience in herbal medicine and natural health research. We use our depth of knowledge, heart-centred approach, and intuition to help you improve your quality of life.
Since we use an integrative approach, we can also help you develop healthy practices to integrate with your herbal remedies. This means we often provide lifestyle and nutritional recommendations beyond herbal medicine so you have the best chance of healing your ailment.
We are well-known for our custom remedies and health consultations. During this process, we spend extra time getting to know your story so we can develop a fully individualised protocol. We also work with a variety of health practitioners such as naturopath doctors by filling herbal prescriptions via our compounding services.
We offer both in-person services and consultations via phone or video call:
Medical Herbal Consultations
Holistic Nutritional Consultations
Herbal Medicine Compounding
Individualized, handcrafted herbal formulas
We prioritise herbs that are sustainably sourced, certified organic, and grown with the highest standards of quality control. This ensures you get treatments that are as vibrational, potent, and effective as possible.
The majority of our tinctures are from a biodynamic farm that has been making these medicines for decades—and their experience shows. You can really taste the difference and feel the energy of these fresh tinctures!
