Holistic Homeopathic healing treats the person suffering as a whole rather than the disease or parts or organs of the body. Its focus is on maintaining internal balance at all 3 planes – Physical, Mental and Emotional Health & Harmony. Homeopathic remedies strike internally to the very root or core of the illness and, in doing so, allows one’s body to complete the natural healing process from within.

Dr Edward Bach was a British Physician who began to see disease as an end product – a final stage; a physical manifestation of unhappiness, fear and worry.

According to him, physical ailments are only an expression of mental or emotional disturbances. The distress of mind such as fear, worry, anxiety and depression so depletes the vitality, that the body loses its natural resistance to diseases and is vulnerable to illness.

He therefore, began to look to nature to find healing flowers. Over a period of years, Dr Bach found 38 healing flowers and plants that, with the right preparation, became the 38 Bach Flower Essences. His intention was to develop a method of healing that would treat the emotional and spiritual imbalances which lead to physical diseases.

How do the essences work?

The Bach Flower Essences are a safe and natural method of healing. They gently restore the balance between mind and body by casting out negative emotions such as fear, worry, hatred, anxiety and indecision, which interfere with the equilibrium of the being as a whole. The Essences allow peace and happiness to return to the sufferer so that the body is free to heal itself.
