Advantages: A natural way to heal and help emotional well being Disadvantages: None
Dr Bach`s Rescue remedy has been a blessing for my daughter this year,she suffered from severe post-natal depression and hoped to overcome it with the support of family and friends rather than using prescribed medication.
We both believe in Homeopathic remedies and often turn to the Internet for advice on herbal treatments.
We have a smaller Holland and Barrett store within easy reach and have found the staff very helpful and informative.
So armed with some knowledge gained from www.internethealthlibrary.com and assistance from the staff at Holland and Barrett,Evie decided she would try the Dr Bach Rescue Remedy.
