About Thornbury Apothecary
Thornbury Apothecary
Community orientated & full of heart
Hey All!
Welcome to Thornbury Apothecary. My name is Anna and I am the Owner and Founder of Thornbury Apothecary & Stella's Light Healing. I am living in the northern suburbs of Melbourne with my mini menagerie. After graduating with 3 degrees in Marine Biology, Secondary Education and a Master's in Education, I started my career as a Science Teacher and later, in October 2014 I created Stella's Light Healing. For the last 11 years I have run Stella's Light Healing & Thornbury Apothecary alongside my part time teaching job.
To where we are now…
We are now located just up the road from our old space at 800 High St, Thornbury next door to Thornbury Picture House. As we grew and expanded, we needed more room and space to continue our growth. We have now nestled into our new space with four active rooms available and our beautiful shop front. We can’t wait to see you!
From the start..
In 2020, during the pandemic, my little shelf shop that I had in my room moved online due to the demand for crystals, sage, and natural home organic healing remedies. From a shelf shop to manifesting my own space was my next step. The idea formed in my head two years prior, however, serious thought didn’t begin until the pandemic hit and hey presto rental spaces hit the market and became affordable.
I stumbled across this little shop admiring all its dusty, musky, pink and blue interior, and like a vision, I was given exactly what to do. It was fun renovating and visiting the same five places nearly everyday to make the dream happen. We are so proud of what we have created, a little gem, a wondrous healing space where classes are on offer and a range of therapists use the space.
So welcome to Thornbury Apothecary. We are so honoured and proud to share our little sanctuary with you!
