Research Facts
Max Herriman Thuna, an osteopath and herbalist who treated patients using both western medicine and herbs in the late 1880s in Austria, before immigrating to North America. He opened the first Thuna’s in Montreal, and, in 1922, moved to Toronto, where he opened the city’s first incarnation of Thuna Herbals on 436 Queen St. W. He ran it until his death in the late 1930s.
