Why do the remedies only last 3 weeks?
If you take your remedy at the minimum dose (4 drops, 4 times a day) your bottle should last approximately 3 weeks. We add organic brandy or glycerine to your treatment bottle to help eliminate bacteria from the liquid but after 3 weeks there is a risk of contamination. All our remedies are made by hand to your specific requirements and are not made in a factory.

Remedies do not contain any major sources of allergens and are also vegan, however they are made in a location where nuts and other allergens may be present. The Regular bottles do contain alcohol but you can choose the Alcohol Free option which is made with a vegetable glycerine if you prefer to avoid alcohol. Our alcohol-free version is crafted with vegetable-derived glycerine which may contain coconut, making it unsuitable for those with a coconut allergy. If you have a coconut allergy, please contact us before placing your order.

Can Flower Remedies help with physical conditions?
The remedies do not treat physical illness directly but help to restore harmony and balance to the personality and mind which allows the body’s natural defences to work more effectively. The remedies treat the person as a whole – supporting the mental outlook or personality trait of the person, rather than a disease, however this pursuit of emotional balance should help to support overall welling. There has been much research on the impact of stress on the body and the interaction between the mind, the nervous system and immune system.
