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.
