I'm pretty sure I've already reviewed this place, but perhaps that was in a former life? Anyway,…read moreNapiers is a bit of an institution and has been here for what seems like forever. I mostly visit just to buy stuff like vitamins and herbal toothpaste in the shop, but there is also a dispensary side to the business, where their extremely qualified herbalists will fix you up with a suitable herbal remedy for whatever ailment you are suffering from. It's also surprisingly good for little gift boxes and other goodies, especially around the festive season. But overall, it's just a really nice friendly place to pop in for a browse and a chat, the staff are always helpful and approachable.

What an amazing little shop!…read more I've never noticed this shop and had never heard of it until recently. Nipped in today on my lunch break to check if they had nutritional yeast and ended up leaving with a bag full of goodies. They stock things you wouldn't normally see in other health shops, things you would have to buy online normally. The prices are pretty reasonable considering. I've never seen such a massive selection of vegan chocolate and sweets. Impressive! Also managed to pick up some vegan chipotle mayo and vegan garlic mayo. Delighted! There's a shelf with some great offers on at the moment; organic beans, peanut butter, chickpeas. Good selection of meat and milk alternatives in the fridge, as well as dairy free milk alternatives, natural energy juices and other cool stuff. Hair products, bath and shower products, vitamins and loads of other beauty and personal care items on offer too. They have freshly made giant samosas (vegan friendly) at the till for 99p. Bought one to try and it was so delicious. The folk serving really couldn't have been any nicer, they even gave me a handful of free tea samples. How lovely! Can see me being a regular customer in here. Best customer service and shopping experience I've had in a long time.

It always used to bother me that the man who worked here looked so unwell. I would not usually…read morecomment unfavourably on someone's appearance, especially when it looks medical, but it bothers me in a health food shop. Perhaps that is petty. Mostly, I pick up fancy teas from here. I am not quite brave enough to dive too deeply into herbal cures without a guide, so I miss the rows of various health-promising mixtures, opting for herbal teas and the odd aromatherapy oil. They stock the wonderful Celestial Seasonings range, so this used to be a regular stop on the way home from work.

I well love this little place. Not one of my usual haunts (a pint of cider counts as one of your…read morefive a day, right?) but on occasion a place I'll pop into for a nosey. Or to kick start a week long (and only week long) health binge. It looks slightly dilapidated (just up my street) and surprisingly has quite a bit of character even though it does look like a Holland and Barret's reject. And, with me being a H & B reject is a good sign. Needless to say, they stock similar health food, supplement and remedy stuff in here. Though, it's got a more homely, relaxed feel about it. This is heightened by warm, friendly staff who could easily have you walking out of here with armfuls of stuff that you seemed to really need at the time. I don't know if it's just me but when entering a place like this the usual 'How are you?' question can take on a whole new meaning. For instance: "Hello and how are you?" "Oh good thanks. Well, a little tired what would you recommend?" "blah blah blah (hands over pills)" "Great. (pause) Oh and what about for healthy hair, skin and teeth..?" You can see how it goes. I suddenly turn into the walking dead and convince myself that something must be done about it. Anyhoo, this is a lovely, local little place which completely tops H & B. So if you're looking to get healthy or maintain your health with all sorts of herbal remedies give this place a go.

Have I told you how much I love greengrocers? They make me healthy and full of life, and make me…read moreforget that I usually can't really be bothered eating a lot of fruit. Citrus Green is no exception. Their rows of fruit spill out onto pavement tables. I like this too, I think it makes me feel that the shop is bountiful (I said it). The bright colours always manage to entice me in. There are some not bad deals, but it isn't the cheapest greengorcer I've been in. As well as the fruit and veg, there is also a little chiller with milk, yoghurt etc. The guys in the shop are only too happy to help, and found some corn on the cob for me when I had a case of moronicity and couldn't find it.

Allison Street is the home of the vegetable shop: there are so many to choose from. Citrus Green is…read moreone of the best: many of the others are, frankly, a bit grubby, and this one manages to have a good stock without having a smell of rotting fruit. Since they serve the Asian community, there are plenty of rare items hidden above the onions, and the ubiquitous plain yogurt is in the cold cabinet. People do drive here from all over Glasgow- expect to see Mercedes incongruously parked outside. This is the greengrocers of my choice, even now I have moved away from the immediate area.

Offering herbal remedies for everything ranging from a bruised leg to flu, this place is a welcome tonic to the "take this pill and it'll all be fine" approach of your local GP. In addition to the herbal stuff, you can also get a wide range of massages in this place, from relaxing and calming treatments to deep tissue sports orientated ones. Got one of Dem sports massages a few years ago after caputing my shoulder via a combination of roof work and mountain bike madness. The results were nothing short of amazing. This place also does some interesting herbal and natural products ranging from lip bam to toothpaste and deodorants. It also does candles and other nice smelling type items. A visit here always leaves you feeling a little more refreshed than you were when you walked in. Add this to the friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff and you have an ideal experience awaiting you

I was in pain again. My darn shoulder & neck playing up and giving me gip (as my Mum would say). I…read moreknow when it gets to this stage rather than swally a load of painkillers all the time what I really need is a GOOD massage. The kind that makes you go 'Ah yeeeaaaaaaaah....' I usually go to Karada Massage in High Street but I fear they may have closed down :( I could not access their website or phone them. *sob* So I needed a back up fast. I read on this here Yelp that WH were pretty good & also a friend of mine recommended them. I was so in need of relief (steady!) I phoned & made an appointment for that day. Got one luckily no bother. Brilliant. I wasn't sure exactly what type of massage to get (as they really do so many various kinds) so I explained to the nice lady on the phone & she said I could discuss my requirements on arrival with my therapist. My therapist was Isabel and she was very nice indeed. I explained to her my pain & she asked a few (relevant) questions & then said she would cater the massage to my needs ~ this being a back, shoulder, neck & face/head massage. Lovely job. I could not wait. My massage was for an hour and it was so so good. A wee bit sore at times but it was necessary as I was really knotted up & as tense as a very tense thing (apparently). She was very thorough and she did indeed massage all parts necessary, including my face which was so nice BUT as I didn't know I was getting a facial I had on my usual make-up which by the end of the massage, of course, ended up smudged all over my face! Ha ha! Oh dear...luckily they have a wee bathroom (with lovely smelling hand soap!) you can 'fix' yourself in after or else I would've scared the people of Woodlands with my mental clown face. Again. Doh. My particular massage treatment was £40 which you might think is a bit steep but for how much it helped me & how well it was catered to my needs I thought it was fair. Their website has a handy price-list so you can check how much your treatment should be before you go and check at what days/times they are available. Isabel recommended I come again in 2 weeks time (Yes, it was THAT bad!) and I did and again it was brilliant. She suggested monthly massages to me & I am actually really up for it as I am one of these people that really needs a good massage regularly. If only I was richer! Another really good thing about WH is that they stay open late on a Wednesday (and other evenings too), until 8pm I believe. This is great if you work 9-5pm. I also like the wee shop they have in here ~ lots of vitamins & herbal treatments/goodies, food/snack things & other stuffs. I just love the smell of this place as soon as you walk in...Mmmm! Herbs!

By I mean tasty, they put some twists into the dishes, they would add some different species. However, I was never disappointed, not even once. I sometimes go to buy bread from them, also quite good, always fresh too. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars: depending who's behind the counter, the service highly varies. Sometimes it's the really nice and courteous girl who brights up my day, but sometimes I get unlucky with some person without a smile :(

They stock all the things you'd expect - nakd bars, vitamins, supplements, nuts, seeds, tinned foods and lots of items in the "free from" category. I was pretty impressed by the pricing as well, as I didn't think it was too bad - certainly not that much different from supermarket prices. I grabbed a bottle of apple cider vinegar and some cashew nut butter. Service was ok - not overly friendly, but not rude either. I hadn't realised that Jan de Vries had quite a lot of shops around the place so it's perhaps more of a chain than expected. But all up, it's a nice wee health shop if you're looking for some more obscure foods.

The kooky little lady that owns the shop is always cheerful and happy to help, willing to offer advice on purchases from squeaky mice to miso soup. Items here are incredibly cheap compared with big name retailers and there are plenty of options for vegetarians and vegans including soya milk and veggie sausage mix. I really like this little local store and would much rather part with my pennies here than fork out for big brand branches.
