Bach Flower Remedies

Bach Flower Remedies is a trusted natural remedy system developed in the 1930s for individuals seeking gentle support for emotional balance. Created by Dr. Edward Bach, a British physician and homeopath, Bach Flower Remedies offer a non-pharmaceutical approach to emotional care through 38 single flower essences and one combination formula known as Rescue Remedy.

Each product in the Bach Flower Remedies system is a liquid essence derived from wildflowers or plants, prepared using Dr. Bach’s original methods of sun infusion or boiling, and preserved in brandy or vegetable glycerin. These drops are packaged in 10 mL to 30 mL amber glass bottles with droppers for convenient oral use. The remedies are clear, tasteless apart from the preservative, and suitable for daily or situational use.

Bach Flower Remedies target specific emotional states such as worry, fear, irritability, overthinking, or hopelessness. Each of the 38 remedies corresponds to one distinct emotional state. The widely used Rescue Remedy blends five of these — Rock Rose, Impatiens, Clematis, Cherry Plum, and Star of Bethlehem — to help users during periods of acute stress or emotional shock.

The Bach Flower Remedies system is used globally by adults, children, and even animals and plants. These remedies can be taken directly under the tongue or diluted in water, with up to seven remedies combined into a custom formula. They are commonly recommended by naturopaths, homeopaths, and holistic practitioners as part of routines for stress management, emotional grounding, and lifestyle transitions.

Bach Flower Remedies continues to follow the original vision of Dr. Bach: treat the person, not the condition. The remedies are still produced in the United Kingdom using sustainably collected plants from their original locations and remain free from artificial colours, flavours, or additives.
