Our Shop
Everyone gets a warm reception at Healing Thyme in Whitchurch, Shropshire. Walk into a haven of relaxing sounds and the pleasing smells from an old Apothecary shop.
Our retail shop includes a herbal dispensary. The craftsman-made wooden shelves hold bottles of herbal tinctures and jars of dried herbs some of which have been grown or wild-crafted and prepared by our own medical herbalists.
Two Medical Herbalists work at Healing Thyme, one of whom is generally available in the shop, including Friday mornings (market day in Whitchurch). They are happy to give advice on general health issues, nutrition and supplements and will make up remedies for minor ailments. They also have their own range of tinctures, creams and first aid items.
