Anyone use any of these? I found this site when I was looking around at alternative solutions for my low thyroid.

Just looking for opinions.

I haven't used most of them but I LOVE the Rescue Remedy.

I have an irrational fear of falling. As in, I can't lean on the railing of a high balcony even though rationally it would be perfectly safe. And it also kicks in when I'm at the dentist and tipped with my head down.. I feel constantly like I'm about to fall out of the chair onto my head.. even though rationally there's no danger of falling.. so what happens is I can't relax (and relaxing means less physical trauma) and tend to grip the arms of the chair with both hands.

I used the rescue remedy and was comfortable with only resting one hand on the arm.. the difference was amazing.

So my feeling is that they could certainly be worth a try.

I use the Rescue Remedy for my dog. She has epilepsy, and I had read and found to be true, that Rescue Remedy often helps them come out of their disoriented phase after a seizure. I haven't tried the other Bach Remedies, but this one has worked extremely well for her.

i love flower remedies. LOVE them. they don't work for major-major issues, but definitely help for mild/moderate ones.

i keep Rescue Remedy in my purse at all times.

i also am working on getting a Certificate in Flower Essences through the American College of Healthcare Science's Holistic Medicine Dept because i think flower essences are that great.

Wow, Laura, that is so cool! So, would hypothyroid be major? What would you say is mild/moderate? Looking at all the remedies on the Healing Combinations site, I could probably order a dozen! I am not even sure where to start.

Do you have a site that you buy from?

Molly I 'm not sure if you are near a town or city at all but often many nutrition / health food stores carry the bach products . Just in case shipping is expensive etc. We've a 3 stores nearby that carry all back remedies .

i would think you would need to figure that out with your dr.

the nice thing about FE is that they can be used in a complimentary fashion, alongside meds, if meds are also needed.

we use Vitacost for almost all of our vitamins and supplements. they are drastically cheaper than other sites or local retailers, and googling usually turns up a coupon code also.

Vitacost


eta: the site "Healing Combinations" site is not one i have seen before. in just quickly looking around - she sometimes uses a lot of remedies per mix, which isn't usually recommended, and also...FE are unique to the person. like....check out FAQ from the Bach Centre. i don't think they would be quite so on-board with the mixes as the Healing Combinations sells. As the Bach Centre notes:


Are there other ready-mixed remedies apart from Rescue Remedy?

The only ready-mixed remedy we recommend is the mix sold under the trade name Rescue Remedy. This mix was prepared by Dr Bach to cover the usual reactions people would have to crises and emergencies. It was intended as an emotional first-aid kit, so after the immediate crisis is over the correct thing to do is to look at the individual response rather than go on taking Rescue Remedy indefinitely.

It would be quite wrong to make up the same mixture for everyone preparing for an examination, or everyone who felt depressed or suffered from insomnia. No two people will ever react in exactly the same way and to reflect this we need to find a personal mix.

but as i said, i had not seen that site before, and i do not know it, and it might be just fine. i just don't know, kwim?
