Bach Flower Remedies
Bach Flower Remedies are extremely dilute concentrations
of preserved water that has been infused with energies from
the petals of flowers selected by Dr. Bach for their healing
properties.
Specific remedies are selected for a person (animal, or plant)
according to that patient's emotions - rather than according
to his/her physical symptoms.
Use of the Bach Flower Remedies is a very gentle form of energy-medicine
based healing.
For information about specific remedies see List
of Bach Flower Remedies.
History of Bach Flower Remedies:
Dr. Edward Bach was a medical doctor and researcher who
developed both the system of healing associated with the
Bach Flower Remedies, and also it's underlying philosopy:
| "Science is tending
to show that life is harmony - a state of being in tune
- and that disease is discord or a condition when a part
of the whole is not vibrating in unison." |
| Dr. Edward
Bach addressing the British Homeopathic Society in November
1928. |

What does a Bach Flower Remedies Consultation / Treatment
involve? :
A Bach Flower Remedies Consultation may last between about
45 and 120 minutes because the practitioner may request
detailed information about the client's feelings about his/her
life-situation. This is because it is ones emotions that
determine the appropriate choice of (combination of) Bach
Flower Remedies.
Some of the remedies might at first seem to be indicated
by very similar emotional states (e.g. there are remedies
for 5 different types of fear). Hence, the consultation
must be detailed in order for the practitioner to establish
which combination of the possible remedies is most appropriate
for the client, at that particular time.
Following the consultation, the practitioner may provide
the client with a treatment bottle containing the client's
ideal combination of remedies as indicated at that time.
Alternatively, some practitioners prefer to invite their
clients to make up their own treatment bottle in order that
they experience the simplicity of the system for themselves,
and so that they are able to prepare a follow-on bottle
of the same type if they wish to do so later (without the
need of another consultation).
However, consultations do not necessarily include provision
of remedies or treatment bottles - in some cases practitioners
may offer their knowledge and experience but encourage their
clients to obtain remedies for themselves seperately afterwards.
(As with all therapies, it is adviseable to ask the practitioner
exactly what is required and provided in advance of arranging
a treatment or consultation.)
