At Herbal Honey, Keisha Mathes is also known as master herbalist and owner. She began her studies in herbology, botanical pharmacology, and formulations in 2005.  It was then that she was inspired to develop her first herbal formulation for an ill family member. Her relative was suffering from a great deal of pain and inflammation and wanted to try something natural to relieve it. Keisha spent hours combing over herbs, their precautions and benefits in order to create a tea that would not only help but also not cause any harm. In 2014 Keisha earned her B.S. in Integrative Therapeutic Practices from Metropolitan State University of Denver. As a level II certified Reiki Practitioner, she has a passion for holistic remedies and is a self-proclaimed “science nerd” with a background in biological sciences and a 20-year career in the healthcare field.  Over the last 13 years Keisha has developed countless formulas for friends and family. As an herbalist, her greatest joy is helping someone achieve their goals using natural medicine and modalities. It’s only natural that she launched Herbal Honey to offer her holistic remedies to the broader global community.
