PHYTOTHERPAY (HERBAL TINCTURES)
Derived from the Greek words phton, meaning ‘plant’ and therapela, meaning ‘therapy’, phytotherapy - or herbal medicine and should not be confused with homoeopathy.

Both are medicinal treatments based upon the use of fresh herbs, their points of departure are quite different.  Phytotherapy employs the use of whole herbs and homoeopathic medicines are based on the carefully diluted extracts of herbal plants – i.e. whole plants versus plant extracts.

However, although fundamentally different, phytotherapy does owe much of its inspiration to homoeopathy, as a great number of the plants used are common to both. The guiding philosophy behind phytotherapy is that it is not just one or two isolated plant substances that provide a cure, rather it is the totality of all a plant’s ingredients working together that generate the desired therapeutic effect. Today, phytotherapy is accepted as a highly effective fundamental treatment. In fact in many Western European countries it is used in combination with conventional medicines and is longer be viewed as an alternative form of treatment. "Follow nature's example and try to find the balance between tension and relaxation, between activity and rest, between intellectual and physical activity. Illness and suffering are caused by imbalance and disharmony, in whatever areas of your life they may occur" by A. Voge

BACH FLOWER REMEDIES
Bach flower essences contain the vibration / imprint (energy) of the plant. It helps bring us into a state of resonance with our true essence, our perfect-self within. Since this is energy at work; these essences are more powerful than herbs or other extracts. The body has a complex electrical system that is present in and connects with every cell. When this system is compromised by various stresses, traumas and unhealthy situations in life, these circuits break down and cause the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual imbalances and malfunctions. Flower essences help to reconnect these circuits on a cellular level and allow the body to return to a state of balance and health.
