The system of plant and flower-based remedies was developed in the 1930s by Dr.
Edward Bach, a physician and homeopath who was convinced that emotional wellbeing was key to overall health. Dr. Bach spent his life exploring the use of
flowers and plants to bring a simple, natural and gentler approach to emotional
balance. He eventually went on to create The Bach Centre in Oxfordshire, England,
where he developed the remedies as we know them today.
As demand for the remedies grew, The Bach Centre partnered with Nelsons
pharmacy to help formulate and bottle the remedies, and Nelsons has been
responsible for the signature brand remedies ever since.
The remedies were developed in the 1930s by Dr. Edward Bach, a physician and
homeopath who believed that the key to overall health was to care for the mind as
well as the body. He spent his life exploring the use of flowers and plants as a
means to promote emotional wellbeing. By 1936 he identified 38 flower essences,
each one derived from a different wild flower, plant or tree, and each corresponding
to a specific emotion.
