About Us
A LETTER FROM MEGAN
FOUNDED ON HOPE
Megan & Co. Herbal Apothecary and Clinic was founded through a journey of fear, uncertainty, resilience, and hope. At the age of 10, I began having seizures and was given the diagnosis of juvenile myoclonic epilepsy. This diagnosis was the start of a long road, filled with fear and frustration as I searched for answers.
For the next 15 years, I was prescribed medication after medication in hopes of controlling my seizures, without success. When herbalism entered my life, I was at a point where I was out of options with Western medicine. Studying herbalism changed everything for me. I began to view my physical, nutritional, and emotional health as one, and dig into the root cause of my seizures. I found not only the wellness I had been searching for but wholeness I didn't know I was missing.

My healing journey led me here, to Megan & Co. I opened in 2017 with a mission to provide quality herbal medicine and make access to knowledge and products easily available, for those interested in changing the course of their health. It is my desire that the services we offer provide a sense of hope for those searching for answers and help to empower those on their holistic healing journey.
If you are feeling stuck or at a dead end with your health, we understand. If you are in chronic pain, if you're tired of struggling with energy, if you can't sleep, or if your body is suffering, we understand. There is a path to wellness.
We believe herbal wellness can complement traditional medicine - it does not have to be an either/or situation. Our trained clinicians are here to help, wherever you are on your path.
