WHO IS DR. BACH?

The flowers used for the famous Bach Remedies blossom under most various conditions. Some are from majestic trees, some from unimposing little plants. But the name, which all these flowers are subsumed under, is from a single person: Dr. Edward Bach.

Dr. Edward Bach studied medicine in London where he set up his general practice. He worked also as a bacteriologist and pathologist, he worked on vaccines and a set of homoeopathic nosodes.

Still, he felt dissatisfied with his work, as medicine was concentrating on diseases and not on the people themselves. Dr. Bach wanted to find a pure remedy less inspired by disease.

So, he gave up his work in 1930 and moved out of London, to devote his life to a new system of medicine from nature herself. In doing so, he did not rely on his scientific knowledge but on intuition. One by one he found the remedies, he was looking for: each for a specific emotion or mental state.

In spring and summer, he spent his time looking for new flowers and preparing his remedies. In winter, Dr. Bach gave assistance to his clients. He found that when concentrating on emotional states and personalities, the health of his clients was improving, as their natural healing powers were allowed to flow freely.

In November 1936, Dr. Bach passed away in Mount Vernon, leaving behind a healing system much valued all over the world.
