Bach Flower Remedies are now known world-wide. Most people are aware of and have used RESCUE REMEDY, but did you know that there are actually 38 remedies in total, from which to choose.

The BACH FLOWER REMEDIES were created in the 1930’s by Dr Edward Bach, who was a Harley Street Practitioner, who had also studied homeopathy.  Even in those days he was aware of the connection the emotions had on physical conditions. In this respect he was way ahead of his time.  Although the remedies were devised for people they work in the same manner with animals, as they work on the emotional level.

This was the eventual home of Dr Bach – in a little village called  Brightwell-cum-Sotwell, in Oxfordshire. The photo of Mount Vernon is by permission of the Bach Centre www.bachcentre.com.

Apart from using the remedies for people, I have always been interested in animals and their reactions to different things. Like people each animal is an individual with its own emotions and it seemed a natural follow up for me therefore to do the animal course. To gain as much information as possible, over the years I have attended various animal courses and workshops, all of which have helped to give me an additional insight into how emotions, eg fear, anxiety, jealousy, loneliness, and in some cases sheer terror can influence behaviour.

I went on to take the Bach Animal Practitioner course run by the Natural Animal Centre in Carmarthenshire and am now on the International Register at the Bach Centre (BFRAP). I work with animals under veterinary referral. Please note that your vet is your first point of contact in relation to any concern you have about your animal’s well-being, as he is responsible for the health and wellbeing of your pet.   Also, that The Bach Flower Remedies do not replace medical or veterinary attention as the case may be.
