Essences and tissue salts are often prescribed alongside homeopathic remedies to support and deepen healing.
Essences
Essences are similar to homeopathic remedies in that they use highly diluted forms of natural substances to make them more effective than just using the original raw material or herbal extract.
They are a safe and natural medicine, made predominantly from flowers and gems, and work to gently restore the balance between mind and body by casting out negative emotions, such as, fear, worry, hatred and indecision. In this way, they can help to transform old ways of thinking and negative patterns of symptoms or behaviour that are no longer good for us.
Tissue salts
The Twelve Tissue Salts invented by Dr Schuessler are homeopathic preparations of various combination minerals required by the body for growth, repairing, and healing.
They are absorbed rapidly into the body through the bloodstream and are nutritious rather than energetic in their action. They are particularly useful in structural and bone-related issues.
Tissue salts are non-toxic and completely safe to use during pregnancy, when a special Pregnancy Tissue Salt program is often prescribed. The program helps to replenish any biochemic cell salt deficiencies in the mother to support a healthy and problem-free pregnancy, and helps the baby with its nutrient salt requirements for development and growth.
