apotha
Vendor
Apotha is a modern-day apothecary based in ancient traditions.
Our formulas for our products are based in Traditional Chinese Medicine, Western Herbalism, traditional folk medicine, and tribal medicine.
We specialize in making safe, non-toxic products that are safe enough to eat (however, we don't recommend it).
We source all of our products and ingredients ethically and sustainably and use all organic ingredients (unless noted).
We specialized in :
-Hair care products (serums, sprays, conditioners, etc. ),
-Home cleaning products (Kitchen Cleaners, Tile Scrubs, no-waste toilet boil tablets, etc.)
-Body Care Products (Lotions, Salves, lip care, etc.)
-Healing Arts Products - (Protection Sprays, Smudge Sprays, Clearing Sprays)
-Lifestyle Products (Yoga Mat Sprays, Scented Body Sprays, etc)
Everything we make has safety for the human, animal, planet, etc. in mind.
We like to work with the different facets of nature and see what she has provided for us to use.
All of our products contain at least one herb or botanical.
We believe that plants are the simplest form of connection and medicine, and that our plant friends are integral to not only our products, but to our human family as a whole.
We package everything in glass or other non-plastic materials whenever possible.
Because we inherently believe that plastic for the environment is harmful, we also believe that it is harmful to the human consumer as it can interfere with the endocrine system.
We believe that if you wouldn't eat something, you shouldn't :
1) Put it on your skin
2) Put in your home environment,
3) Spray it on your body
4) Spray on surfaces you clean and live upon, around, and within
All of our products are non-toxic and safe to touch and handle.
It is really difficult to find products as clean and effective at the grocery or corner store.
We offer not only efficacy, but herbal wisdom, plant wisdom, and literal alchemy.
We take the good stuff inside plants. and make it feel good on your outside :)

Hi, there!!
My name is Heather Elizabeth.
I am the creator behind apotha.
Apotha is a modern-day apothecary based in ancient medicine.
My goal in creating herbal and botanical-based products is to educate humans on the many benefits of adding botanicals in their life as well as creating body care and products for your everyday life that are not only magical, but edible (although we don't recommend it).
I fully believe that if you wouldn’t eat something- you shouldn’t put it on your skin.
PERIOD.
I have a BS in Psychology from UF & a background in Nursing , but after I departed from Western medicine in 2016, I started studying herbalism at Traditions School of Herbal Studies in May of 2018. I finished the Western Herbalism Program earlier this year, and am studying Traditional Chinese medicine in class and at my day job in practice.
I manage an apothecary in downtown St. Pete and make medicine for other practitioners daily in both Western Herbalism and Traditional Chinese Medicine.
I decided to take my medicine-making and formulating skills outside of the apothecary and into the general public.
apotha is where we landed :)
I am really stoked to bring products that shine on the real heroes- plants!
I LOVE our plant allies, and I give and owe them all my gratitude.
I believe I receive plant medicine just by working with them on a daily basis, and I want to spread that plant love to others.
Plants and botanicals are our great grandmothers and grandfathers and they have much to teach us.
I believe putting plants and herbs on and around you will naturally lighten up your spirits and mood and connect you deeper to the natural universe and the earth.
It's earth magic.
Connection to self- is connection to nature;
and apotha helps bring nature to you.
