The Herb Shop & Tea Lounge in Jenkintown helps customers put themselves first when it comes to their mental and physical health, writes Vittoria Woodill for CBS Philly.
The shop is a warm and fun place where people can feel relaxed and relieved while drinking loose teas, browsing culinary and therapy-grade herbs, or getting adventurous by trying the sweet and tasty unicorn smoothie.
Owners Mike and Mel are a well of information when it comes to different herbs and their helpful properties.
For example, Mel can teach you that ashwagandha is “another herb great for anxiety.” She will also warn you that while lavender is calming, too much can have the opposite effect.
In addition to herbs, the shop also sells a lot of products made by its owners.
“I make aftershave sprays, I do salves, I do lip-glosses,” said Mel.
The shop opened in February 2020, making for a rough, pandemic-defined start. Still, thanks to takeout and carry out, the store has managed to overcome a challenging first year and come out of it stronger than ever.
