Homeopathics
Homeopathic medicines are therapeutically active micro-doses of mineral, botanical and biological substances.
Because of their reliability and safety, homeopathic remedies can be taken by almost anyone at any time: infants, children, elderly, even pets
Homeopathics are 100% natural, not habit forming, have no side effects, do not mask symptoms, and do not pose the problem of interacting with other drugs or prescription medications. Homeopathic remedies do not cause drowsiness and therefore are an excellent choice for drivers and operators of heavy equipment.
The Natural Food Shop has the largest selection of individual, combination, and topical homeopathic remedies in the Milwaukee area. We also provide the full range of cell salts in either individual or combination components.
Homeopathic medicines are used to treat many acute health conditions such as:
Flower Essences
Flower essences are herbal infusions or decoctions, made from the flowering part of the plant.
There is a whole spectrum of healing approaches regarding the use of flower essences in conjunction with homeopathic remedies. In general, practitioners recognize flower essences as distinct from homeopathic remedies, with a more pronounced ability to stimulate soul levels of emotional awareness within the individual. Flower essences gently restore the balance between mind and body by casting out negative emotions, such as fear, worry, hatred and indecision, which interfere with the equilibrium of the being as a whole and allow peace and happiness to return to the sufferer, freeing the body to heal itself.
Understanding the differences between homeopathy and flower essence therapy - in theory and in actual practice - is an important, ongoing field of inquiry.
Flower essences are typically taken orally. The standard dosage is four drops four times daily. You can take the drops directly from stock bottles available in stores, mix them in a glass of water; or make a dosage bottle by mixing several drops with water and brandy (typically 1/4 ounce) in a one ounce dropper bottle.
Several flower essences can be taken together, mixed in a dosage bottle or glass of water. In making a combination, it is important to consider how the essences work together, as well as the appropriateness of each essence in the combination.
Flower essences contain only minute traces of actual physical substance; they are primarily vibrational in nature, as are homeopathic remedies. They are non-toxic and you cannot overdose on them, unless you were to drink a huge quantity of them and be effected by the alcohol which is used as a preservative.
We suggest that you consult with a knowledgable alternative healthcare practitioner if you are considering using flower essences.
