Shop where you can trust
When you browse our store we like to reward your senses with a collection of natural fragrances to make your shopping experience as enjoyable as possible. The store’s interior is also rather captivating. Formerly a church and then a glassmaker’s studio, the cathedral-like archways and stained glassed windows make for a harmonious welcome. Come see for yourself!
We offer a highly qualified in-store team
Providing expert advice and excellent customer service remains an integral part of our philosophy.
It is why all our store staff are qualified naturopaths and medical herbalists who enjoy sharing their knowledge and giving helpful advice.
In fact, not only can you trust our over-the-counter health advice, we offer it for free!
Give yourself the best
Not all herbs are created equal!
The quality of natural medicines available on the market varies greatly which is why we source from only reputable suppliers and manufacturers who adhere to extremely high and ethical standards.
We take pride in offering the finest health care products and herbal formulations so you can shop with confidence knowing you’re always getting the very best!
The ethical choice
We like to extend our caring values and holistic living principles to our store too. Where at all possible we stock products that are produced ethically, organically and sustainably, including the packaging.
We support New Zealand made companies where we can and only choose products not tested on animals. We also have a wide range of products suitable for vegetarians, vegans and those with sensitive skins.
Helping our community since 1991
We have been successfully providing safe and effective natural medical treatments and wellness solutions to the people of Christchurch for nearly 25 years.
Established in 1991, The Herbal Dispensary and Natural Health Clinic was founded by Paul Mitchell. From humble beginnings, the clinic and store has enjoyed a healthy reputation of being a Cantabury landmark and hub of hope, friendship and effective wellness options for thousands of patients and loyal customers.
In 2010, the dispensary was forced to close following the devastating earthquakes which resulted in the collapse of our brick premises on Kilmore Street. We relocated to our current premises on Hills Road 18 months later and reopened on 1 September 2012.
When we began this wonderful journey, we never imagined how personally rewarding it would be to enrich peoples lives by assisting them to overcome debilitating ill-health. We hope we can continue to help the people of Christchurch to live their lives to the fullest, with comfort and longevity, for a lot longer yet,” — Vanessa Winter, Store Manager
