Bach
Flower Remedies
These
gentle natural remedies, made from the flowers of wild plants
and trees, were discovered by the English physician Dr Edward
Bach (1886-1936) as a means of balancing the emotions. They can
help to dispel negative feelings and attitudes, whether these
are a long-term feature of personality, or linked to temporary
stresses such as work problems, relationship issues, bereavement,
physical illness, or some kind of crossroads in life.
Each
of the 38 remedies treats a negative state by promoting the corresponding
positive quality, for example courage to overcome fear, or hope
to overcome despair. Made up in individually-chosen combinations
of up to six remedies, the treatment is tailored to the unique
requirements of each client.
The
remedies are classed as 'vibrational' or 'energy' medicines. They
contain no chemical extracts of the source plant and are therefore
free of the side-effects so often found with prescribed drugs.
They do contain a trace of brandy as a preservative, and so may
be unsuited to those who need to avoid alcohol completely for
medical or religious reasons. Otherwise, they are safe for people
of all ages - including pregnant women and babies - and for animals.
They can be used alongside other forms of treatment.
