See What Our Customers Are Saying
"After working for years with my PCP and dermatologist to manage psoriasis and gut problems, I had just about accepted that I would be on lifelong immune suppressing medications and live with stomach pain. I am so glad I found Heather and Back in Thyme when I did. After 3 weeks of working with her, all of my symptoms had resolved, I no longer needed prescription medications, and I learned so much about inflammation and proper nutrition. Please note I am an RN and have worked in the medical field for over a decade. My dermatologist was amazed at my results and is actually trying out an elimination diet himself.
Heather changed the trajectory of my life, and I am so thankful to have found her. 10/10 recommend. Note you will likely need to drastically change your diet and make modifications but Heather gives you all the tools and support that you need. She also has organic, high quality teas, supplements ect in her store that she may recommend but does not try to sell you things- this woman is truly in it to help and serve her community. Worth every penny and highly encourage you to book a consultation and learn from this amazing woman!
Also, the store is very peaceful and beautiful filled with high quality, local products if you are looking for a gift, or to treat yourself! "

"The shopkeeper was very welcoming, kind, and knowledgeable. I came in complaining of allergies and congestion. She answered all of my questions and put together a custom bag of tea for me to not only help with my allergies, but help soothe my throat. As a singer, I noticed the benefits right away. The tea, along with the Fire Cider she recommended did their job and helped tremendously! Her credentials on the wall and her helpful demeanor say it all. I’ll be back and recommend people giving these natural remedies a try rather than harmful pharmaceuticals."

"Heather is wonderful and so knowledgeable. The store is amazing with all the teas, herbs, gifts etc. Also took a class with Heather and learned so much."

"Great shop for everything healthy and natural! Heather is well-trained and knowledgeable and most importantly, she wants to share her knowledge. She made me a bedtime herbal tea a couple of weeks ago that has worked like a charm! And I just finished her 5-week “Healthy You” class which was excellent. Learned a lot and seeing great results - highly recommend this class for anyone who is serious about getting healthy!"
***************************************
"I just completed the 5 week "Healthy You" class. With Heather’s guidance and not much work, I’m down 10 pounds. She shared tips that will stay with me as I get on a healthier eating track. Heather is so positive and encouraging. The shop has an amazing variety of items as well. I am definitely a regular customer!!"
***************************************
"Heather is fantastic and extremely knowledgeable. The shop is quaint and stocked full of herbs, teas, pampering items, gifts and more. I highly recommend popping in for a look around. You'll definitely find something you need."

"Absolutely incredible experience. A little over a month ago I walked in there at around 302lbs and feeling extremely unhealthy. I was in such a bad place (health wise) in my life that I had basically became a bump on a log as I felt physically and mentally incapable of doing anything.
I finally found the motivation to seek help. I was EXTREMELY lucky to get introduced to Heather from Back in Thyme in Chester, NH. My first visit I was full of complaints, 302lbs, high blood pressure and concerns something could be wrong inside. A doctors appointment was certainly recommended due to my symptoms which I ended up scheduling.
After speaking with Heather for an hour she ended up putting me on a 21 day detox / elimination health plan. She gave me access to an easy to navigate portal app for my phone / iPad which includes recipes, shopping lists, food scheduling, nutrition logging, messaging and more.
The first week required some serious dedication from the withdrawals from all the bad things I’ve been eating for years. Heather kept in touch with me the whole way, messaging me to find out how I’m doing and responding to my messages and questions extremely quickly! She made the entire process so much easier by being there for me. After the first week I had a lot more energy than I’ve had in years and felt much better which continued to grow over the course of 21 days.
After close to a month later I had my follow up visit. My symptoms have almost vanished completely, I lost nearly 30lbs, my blood pressure dropped dramatically and most importantly I feel like a new person and am now extremely motivated to continue moving forward and have the energy now to even work out! I’m now on a new life style change that Heather continues to help me merge into.
There isn’t enough good things I can say about Heather and her business. The cost of this experience is certainly way too cheap for what she offers. I would have paid a lot more for what she gave me (and tried to as well!) You can tell her passion is about helping others and if anyone else is struggling and looking for a new healthy lifestyle or even maintaining the lifestyle you have I’d highly recommend seeing Heather at Back in Thyme."
