Let me say a word for homeopathic remedies in emergency situations.
 There hasn't been a month in my years of practice that I haven't used Bach Rescue Remedy to assist a patient or even a stranger.  I carry  this remedy on my person nearly all the time when I am out in public.  
 I keep it my automobile at all times.
 
Recently, I was first on scene of a single car accident wherein the vehicle slid off a rural road, the driver's door crushed from bouncing against a boulder.  The driver had a laceration above the left ear and was panic-stricken to be out of the vehicle.  Another vehicle stopped at the scene and I instructed the driver to call 911.  I was very concerned that the victim might injure himself further, struggling against his situation.
 
 I got a roll of gauze from my first-aid kit and wrapped it over a compress and around his head to stop the bleeding.  I instructed the victim that I was going to put some drops into his mouth.  He cooperated as I held his jaw and, as best I could, managed to get 3-4 drops of Rescue Remedy under his tongue. By the time the ER Unit arrived the victim was in a relative state of calm, no longer struggling and capable of speaking to the medics.
 
 Respectfully,

Hello,
I have a borzoi who is terrified of thunderstorms and fireworks and this has been a trial for her and us who haven't been able to soothe her.  I tried the rescue remedy with no change in her behaviour or emotions.  I was quite disappointed in this because people had told me how wonderful it was.
I went to Woofstock in Toronto in June of this year and spoke to someone there who was selling Bach's essences.  She told me I hadn't been using the right essence and suggested I try the Mimulus one instead.  I was unsure about this but decided to give it a try. 
IT WORKED!!!!!  We have had a number of storms here and also fireworks occasions.  I gave our borzoi the drops for a storm and she was more settled - this could be the drops or just that the storm wasn't too bad.  I needed further proof.  More storms and fireworks later, the dog is managing well with the drops.  We had a thunderstorm last night and after getting two doses of the drops, she was able to eat her dinner during the storm.  This has never happened before.
I wanted to let you know how pleased I am with this product and the results I'm seeing in my dog.  She is no longer a thunder freak, but a much calmer, able to cope dog.
Thanks.

I wanted to tell you how wonderful your products are.  I’ve been using both the Rescue Remedy and Mimulus.  I’ve suffered from anxiety that can be set on by the most (in my opinion) ridiculous events, typically revolving around thunderstorms and fire.   I was diagnosed with Anxiety Disorder maybe 5 years ago, and was on Zoloft and Klonopin for a while.  I’m off the Zoloft but I still have some Klonopin for any sudden anxiety attacks.

I first heard of Rescue Remedy on holistic nutritionist Isabel Clark’s website, www.clarkwellness.net.  I found your product at a local store in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, called Goldenseal.  There, I saw a pamphlet about the use of your products on companion animals.

My one cat can be skittish, and dislikes thunderstorms as much as I do.  I’ve noticed a difference in her when I’ve added it to their water dish (nothing bothers my other kitty).  I was running the electric broom in the kitchen one day and realized that she was still curled up on the couch in the family room (typically, she’s not on the same floor as where I’m running either that or the vacuum).  So now, on days they’re calling for thunderstorms, I add some Mimulus to their water to help ease her anxieties, as well as add some to my water bottle.  This seems to lower my overall anxiety on days with thunderstorms, which has decreased my need for Klonopin.  I’ve also taken a bottle of Rescue Remedy to work to keep occasional stress at bay.

Your product is fabulous and I can’t say enough good things about it!

Regards,
Lynn

I have to tell you that already I am noticing a difference. My mood is lighter and I am more able to cope with my responsibilties. I've also noticed that a few people I haven't seen or heard from in a while have magically re-appeared. I feel less fearful. I am hardly craving my usual suspects—wine, chocolate, sugar. I'm a flower-essences believer now. I've tried a zillion things but never thought much of Flower Essences until I noticed your site and thought, "Why Not?" It's funny how all those years I walked past the Bach stand of little bottles not fully realizing they could be of such help. Thank you so much for your help and I look forward to my continued healing.

Spring 2008

I consider this a personal success story.
I have not been on Vacation in the past 5 years our of fear of the airplane and being in a different environment and atmosphere. I was told to take Rescue Remedy® before I got on the plane. I to be honest was skeptical. I do take 2 other Bach essentials but I have never been so pleasantly surprised as I was with the Rescues Remedy. I purchased a blister pack of 4 and used them as the  directions on the package said.  I used one blister pack 1/2 and hour before boarding the plane I would say with in 10 to 15 Min's I noticed a calmness that came over me. It was like I was in a different mind set a more content,grounded,peaceful state. My flight was 2 hours and 30 Min's. I have never been able to fly, I would get so nervous and panic and feel the walls closing in. The fear of I can not get out, I am trapped, the overwhelming headache and nausea was unbearable. I would be on gaurd the entire flight and work myself into a panic attack. The landing was dreadful for me, I would become sick and as I would say freak out. I would cry,hold the seat in front of me for dear life and only in vision me passing out.
Now I am so excited to be able to tell you I have the ability to look forward to flying. I was in such a calm,relaxed sate I feel asleep even before take off. I did wake up during my flight but when I did while on the plane I was in a different state,I had no worries, no fears, no anxiety and no panic. I was at such a  peaceful state I slept threw turbulence and the landing.
I said the yesterday to a friend that this product should be illegal to sell or be only by prescription. I did fear that I would not be able to function after my flight landed but I was completely fine and functional. I do not drink or smoke. I do not like to take medicines. Rescue Remedy® was a natural way for me to become calm and still be in control.
I will recommend this product to anyone and everyone.
Thank you

Winter 2008

I have two two year old dogs.  They were getting along really well until they reached the age of two.
My boxer decided she wanted to become the dominate of the two so started to go after my lab/beagle.
Everytime Colby (my leagle, as we call her) would see Maggie, the boxer, she would cower.  That
caused Maggie to pick on her even more.  I sarted them both on Bach flower essences and the effect was amazing!
They haven't fought since.  They are both on Rescue Remedy® and Colby is on Chestnut. At one point we
weren't sure if it was even safe to leave them alone together but now we come home and they are asleep
on the same doggy bed...even tho' we have two.  This has been a blessing for us and a life saver for Colby.
She is once again a relaxed happy little girl.

Hi Bettina,I just wanted to give you an update on my little boy who suffered from separation anxiety that I told you about a few weeks ago. I have been giving him the drops four times a day and he is so much happier now. I am now able to leave him for a while to do chores around the house as I wasn't able to before and if he wants me, he just calls out "Mum" instead of screaming. He is also not climbing all over me and wanting to hang off me all the time either. Other's have also noticed that he is so much happier.I went to my "mother's group" last Friday and he usually sits on my knee, not wanting to move but this time he went off and played (he still watched where I was at all times). He wanted me to pick him up at the start but i just played with him and encouraged him for about 20 minutes and he was fine.It is so nice to see him enjoying himself instead of being fearful all the time. He still crys when I walk out of the room and he is with fairly unfamiliar people but that's understandable and I just try not to do that too often. ie if i need to go to the ladies, I just take him with me! It saves me getting anxious about leaving him and him getting upset!Anyway, I just want to thank you for your help and advice, I really appreciate it. I was really unsure as to whether the drops would work but I can really say now that they absolutely do!Just one more thing, I was going to keep giving them to him until the bottle runs out then see how he goes without them. Is that a good idea or should he be on them for a bit longer?

Thank you very much,
Fiona

I feel compelled to share my success with the remedies in hopes that others will be able to find the same relief and comfort as me. I was plagued by disturbing and frightening thoughts after a nightmare. For days, I was in a near constant state of panic and anxiety, fearing that bad things might happen to me, and that my thoughts might make them happen. Everything was dark for me, thinking I would always be beset by these irrational fears that were tormenting me, especially at night. I dreaded going to bed, and I felt terrified and alone.  I thought a nervous breakdown was in the near future. Out of the blue, I remembered Bach Flower remedies. I had never taken them before, but heard good things about them.  I needed them a.s.a.p. as I was in such a terrible mental state of terror, so I called around until I found a place near my home where I bought several of the remedies.  Cherry Plum, Mimulus, and Rock Rose immediately helped me. Now I feel safe, calm and protected, and I don't go to bed scared anymore. It is quite amazing how incredible I feel, and I am immensely grateful that the flower remedies exist. Please keep me anonymous. And thank you for being affiliated with such a wonderful product.

Re Bach's Rescue Remedy®, a "homeopathic treatment...for relief of stress," Naomi Klein says, "I have no real sense that it works...I think of it like a kind of talisman" ("A Small Bottle of Calm in a World Gone Mad," Oct. 7). As perhaps the world's most famous claustrophobe after Woody Allen (I was profiled in The New York Times and the subject of a documentary film on the condition), I have relied on Bach's Rescue Remedy® for years, and can attest that it works.  And given the intensity of some of my panic attacks, I can also attest that its effect is no placebo; I have been given dozens of placebos over the years, none of which has had even a minor effect on my condition. I do not know how or why it works.  Nor do I care.  I only know that it does, and that while it is true that simply having it on me is a comfort, its power to mitigate the stress associated with even serious panic attacks is nothing short of a miracle. --- Thanks for being there.

I walked underneath the tree and looked towards my chook pen. Usually my chooks would come running to me, but there was a gathering of feathers at one end.
The sheepdog stood proudly at the other end, but as soon as he spotted me he cowared underneath a shed, knowing that he was in big trouble for killing chooks.
I ran towards the dead torn chooks, hoping there was a survivor among the mess.
Two chooks were still alive but barely-they needed intense care.
I ran home and got out my animal bach Rescue Remedy®, and hurried back to treat the injured chooks.
Three days after their attack, and plenty of Rescue Remedy®, they began to walk again. They improved over about two weeks, and started laying again after six. Quite extraordinary after they had nearly being ripped to shreds! It shows that Rescue Remedy® isn't only for humans, and to this day, those chooks are still happy as ever! Without Rescue Remedy® I would've lost two of my best layers. It is a very special formula that works wonders for both humans and animals. Ingrid N.

I am terrified to fly.  I come by this phobia honestly because at the age of 10 I lost my adored father when the plane he was piloting exploded in mid air.

Throughout my career I drove, took a bus or train or avoided events and conferences, missing out while others benefited.  I gritted my teeth a few times but was tortured with anxiety about the flight before the trip and the thought of the return flight ruined any enjoyment I could have had during the trip.

On retirement I joined a wonderful organization that raises funds for the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia.  I was offered a once in a lifetime chance to visit the museum "behind the scenes".  Visiting the Winter Palace of the Czars had been a lifelong dream and I accepted, but with the usual trepidation.  

After months of gut twisting anxiety, someone told me about Rescue Remedy®.  All I can tell you is that I used the drops, cream and spray (didn't know there were pastilles!), got on a plane, flew for many, many hours and took it all in stride.  Absolutely amazing.  I experienced all the discomfort that today's flights deliver but I was not frightened at all.

Last year I was able to fly to Ireland to fulfil my mother's last wish to have her ashes spread on Galway Bay.   (with Rescue Remedy® clutched in my hand)  Since then, I have used "the Remedy" on my Westie who shakes uncontrollably in thunder storms.  After a few drops on the tongue, he just sort of lies down.

Rescue Remedy® has changed our lives and I have become a vocal advocate.  Thank you Dr. Bach!

Best wishes,
Robin Young

I would just like to say that your product is a life-savior.  The heals of my feet were cracked and peeling.  The products I used to use were not working any longer.  So off I went to the Wholefood and discovered this little tube.  It's been about two weeks and the cracks are healed and there are no more peeling. You guys actually know what you're doing. Also, I use the Rescue Remedy®.  I have anxiety attacks so often I hold that bottle like it's jewelry. I even sprayed some in my dogs mouths and it worked for them too. Thank you. Donna L. Ganier

Hi there- I just wanted to share an experience with you about my emotionally turbulent 6 year old and rescue sleep spray. My son has a tendency to have emotional fits, where he gets overly upset and dramatic around real or imagined issues (mostly imagined). It is very draining and we have tried many different approaches and nothing has worked until... yesterday my sales rep (I manage a health food store) brought me a sample of rescue sleep. Clearly the cute little spray bottle was a great temptation to my son (to whom I give Rescue Remedy® occaisionally), and so he self medicated with it just before dinner. Well, usually dinnertime is especially difficult with lots of drama and fussing and not eating, but last night he sat down and ate without any fuss at all (this is the first time in a very long time that has happened). Then we got to bedtime, also a highly charged, difficult time, and he gave himself two sprays, stopped fussing, went to brush his teeth and got right into bed (!). I think we may be on to something. My personal experience with the remedy was that it made me feel very still inside. I personally have no trouble falling asleep and am quite good at quieting my mind and stilling my emotions, so don't need it, but if it keeps working for my son, it is nothing short of a miracle!! I just wanted to let you know this because I know many parents struggle with difficult kids, and this could really be a boon for them. Please write me back and let me know if you have received any other reports like this. Thank you for your great products Best

Good morning!

Our cat behaviorist recommended using Rescue Remedy® to ease our cat's anxiety and reduce aggression.We've been using your product for nearly a month and the results are nothing short of miraculous! We have 2 kitties, both male, one is 14, the other is 8. Needless to say the 8-year-old was always patrolling the other cat and making life miserable for all of us.
The oldest kitty was not eating/drinking enough and was always seeking safe refuge. We even began separating them when ever we weren't around to supervise .. so at night, anytime we were outside working in the yard or out shopping, one of them would get sequestered downstairs. This made us all sad :-(Now? Well, we still separate them when we leave the house but that's it. There's very little patrolling and when there is we up the dose on the 8-year-old. But no more out of control fighting, crying or fur-flying chases ... thank you! The product is easy to administer, only takes a couple of minutes twice a day and we're done. What a great product!! Thank you for your consideration and for producing a wonderful, safe product which really works!

All the best,
Scooter

Hello there, I first discovered Bach Flower when I had bowel cancer in 1984 and was under the ministrations of a Naturopath. I found that the Rescue Remedy® helped me enormously. Since then (and I was given one year to live!!) I have recommended it to a lot of people who have tried and agreed it is a wonderful remedy for depression etc. My husband has now suffered two strokes one in June 2006 and a second one November 2006.  I managed to obtain some Bach Flower and was given two bottles one Rescue Remedy® and One of Sweet Chestnut.  He had become very depressed and didn't want to live like he was as he was feeling totally useless.  He is a big strong man and being unable to do what he used to do was just making him feel that way.  I gave him the Sweet Chestnut and since starting it he has been much more cheerful and the depression is not as bad as it was in fact almost gone.  He now even asks me for the 'Flower'.  Thank you so much for your wonderful remedies and I just hope I can continue to receive it as I live on a remote island in the pacific and do not have credit cards.  Once again thank you very much Sincerely Helene Tuwai Vanuabalavu

Does everyone get as amazed from this product as I did? I am very stressed due to my wedding in a month and it is causing me to break out in hives on my chest  ...and I have a strapless dress i have to wear! . Again I have tried everything and I have prayed for a cure! to get rid of the hives. It is obviously nerves and I think I have found the cure! thank you, thank you, thank you, for this strong herb that is so amazing! I think I am on my way to enjoying my last month in the planning process.

My Dog Slept Through the Night

03/19/07I have a dog that has epilepsy. He has most of his seizures at night. I give him the Rescue Remedy® after he has a seizure and it calms him down. He also does not sleep well thru the night. He usually wakes up at 2:30-3:00 every night. I gave him some Rescue Remedy® last night before bed time and he slept thru the night for the first time in about a year.

Thanks for a great product!!! Mary Ann

 

Car trip with 6 month old.

Date: Sun, 13 Dec 1998 Just got the Rescue Remedy® today and it worked like a charm! It was actually kind of scary, how suddenly it worked. He was starting to get fussy in the car on the way back from the herb store after buying the drops, so I gave him some. He continued to fuss for maybe 2 minutes, probably less, then just quit! He was quiet, looking around, for the rest of the ride home. Tried it again on another car ride later that day, and it worked again!
I tried it on myself, and didn't really feel anything (although I was so busy rushing to get ready for a party that I wasn't really paying attention to how I felt). I'm sort of curious about your experience with these drops, and if you've just used them yourself or given them to your child? I gave him 3 drops (I think, he was fighting me so it was hard to tell), and the bottle says to use 4, but I didn't know if that was for anyone, or just adults, and children should be much less? He didn't get sleepy, but it worked so completely that I felt like I must have drugged him. I know of course you wouldn't suggest these drops if they weren't safe, but are you sure? I mean, he was acting like a totally different baby, so calm!!  Thanks for your help! Cathy

Poison Oak .

I just wanted to share my success story: Last week I aquired the worst case of poison oak I 've ever had. It was systemic, with the worst of it on my face. I tend to scar very easily and thought I would have a large scar on my face to look foward to. I came across Bach rescue cream that a friend used on her horse at my stable and started to apply it to my face after treating the oak with Zanfel. The rescue cream soothed the skin immediately and now, a week and a half  later, the oak is clear and the skin feels almost normal. As well the pigment of the skin is also back to normal. I honestly cannot believe the improvement! I am a believer, and will continue to use this product for cuts, abrasions, etc. I also like that I can use it on my animals (horses, dog, cats) knowing I am not applying some chemical mixture just to treat a wound. This stuff is the best! thanks, Nancy Turk

Injured in basketball game.

A friend friends came to my house shortly after he had been hit under the eye in a basketball game. He asked for some ice, since his eye started to swell and hurt. I suggested him to try some Rescue Remedy® on the swelling that in this point was pretty obvious. After 15 minutes he kind of squeak his eye and acknowledge that the swelling is going away, at this point it is defiantly half the size from the point when we applied the Rescue Remedy®. The next day I meet him and his first question was, "What kindda stuff was that you put on my eye yesterday, I thought that I was going to have a big blue eye." There was nothing to see.

Stressful Work Settings

Date: 2/6/99 Time: 10:22:49 AM
I have enjoyed the site. My agency is having a representative give an intro lecture. I am looking forward to introducing this in a homebound classroom of children with physical and medical problems... The children will not be taking the remedies,,, but the staff will.. This is a very stressful work setting. I have been taking the Rescue Remedy® 4 about 1 yr. I have been better able to concentrate without the interference of emotional distractions during pressured meetings. Interaction with the children is a pleasure so no need for Rescue... Enjoy the comments of others... Maybe they will be more specific in how the Flowers have enhanced their emotional lives.....I have used this with my pets after surgery very helpful...SueJune

Baby bird & cat

A baby bird, which was brought in by a cat, was in total shock and did neither move or say anything. It was given Rescue Remedy®, through it's beak over a period of an half hour. After checking on the bird an half hour later, the bird was fully alive and was trying to escape with a big noise. When freed it flew away happily. Tina

Rescue Remedy®

I have found Rescue Remedy® to be an incredibly powerful and amazing remedy.
I have used it on so many occasions with amazing results, that I cannot understand why everyone does not have a bottle or two in their cupboard, in their car or in their handbag. I have used it to stop a fainting attack - I was amazed how it immediately grounded me and brought me back into my body.
I have also used it on one occasion to ease my husband's throbbing foot to the point that he no longer needed a pain killer, plus amazingly stopping a cut finger from bleeding almost instantly on another occasion. I found it invaluable when my children were growing up for all the traumas big and small. I am always amazed how the simplest things work the best. I think
simplicity is the essence of Truth.

With loving thoughts

Worries

We were all affected by the earthquake in Turkey, since my husbands family lives in Istanbul. Luckily at the time of the Earthquake my sister-in-law, nephew and mother-in-law were visiting the US.
After my mother-in-law spoke to her husband, who were in Istanbul during the earthquake, she got so worried that she could not sleep restfully and had nightmares. The next morning she was exhausted and I asked her if she wanted a Bach Flower Essences that could help her not to worry (White Chestnut). I added 2 drops in a glass of water and asked her to take small sips during the day. We didn't see her the whole afternoon, she had fallen to sleep and slept peacefully

2nd Degree Chemical Burns

I have a 'success story' for you. Yesterday, I tried a 'chemical peel' for the first time, and had very bad reaction in several areas of my face. I had three 2nd degree chemical burns, and what looked like a bad sunburn along my cheeks. I was very painful, and looked frightening! A friend recommended the Rescue Remedy® cream. Almost immediately after applying the cream, the pain and tightness went away. After a night with the cream on, my skin is pain-free, and only redness is left. I am totally amazed at the improvement! Thank you!

Abusive Relationship

Rescue Remedy® Story---

About a year and a half ago I got in to an abusive relationship. I was living with the guy and he threw me out. I didn't have anywhere to go and didn't know what I was going to do. I went to a health food store and bought a bottle of Rescue Remedy®. Within 5 minutes of taking it the stress was gone. I got calm, centered and made a plan.

A few days later I called a shelter and moved out.

The whole time I was in shelter I used Rescue Remedy®. I had less trouble than a lot of the women there because I stayed calm and in control rather than flying off the handle or having a panic attack.

Mauled Horse

I was in Wyoming - a long way from my home in France! - at a ranch where I was helping to start 8 young horses the TTEAM way. One day the wranglers came down from the pastures to say that one of the horses had been mauled by a  bear. We ran up and saw the most awful sight. The horse couldn't move and most of the top of his leg was missing. Luckily someone had some Rescue Remedy® and every 5 min. put some in the horses mouth. He stayed calm and let us do TTouches on him and eventually we persuaded him to move his leg.
After about an hour we started moving him and eventually he hobbled down to the corral where the vet was able to treat him. The vet said that he would have been dead meat up in the pasture, but that he thought it had been impossible to get him down without panicking him!!! 
The twist to this story is that it WASN'T a bear which had mauled him but a barbed wire fence!!

Loss of Husband

4/16/00I purchased Rescue Remedy® from my vitamin specialist on 4/16. I was having difficulty dealing with the sudden, unexpected death of my husband back in January. I immediately put 4 drops on my tongue and the results were immediate (within 1 hour). The depression that I had been suffering with, while not severe, was non the less debilitating. I can honestly say that 24 hours later I still feel quite good. I was instructed to use it at least daily for the first week or so and then only when needed. I was so pleased with the results that I intend to investigate all the essences and see which ones and I can and should incorporate into my daily life. I have been telling everyone I meet about this marvelous product.

Son on heavy medications

I started using Bach Flower Essences last May on my 12 year old son who is ADHD and BiPolar Manic Depressive. He was on 6 heavy meds at the time after having spent the first 6 years of his life trying all types of holistic therapies which weren't enough. The flowers worked wonders! 

He's off 4 of his 6 meds and we're working on eliminating the remaining two. Every August, and Nov-March is when he cycles and becomes very depressed and suicidal. This last August he was perfectly fine for the first time since he was 3 years old! The flowers balanced him out and worked miracles!!!!! As for the Nov-March cycling, he has had only a few days where he went off the deep end but was able to pull himself together within an hour by taking the Bach Flower Essences every 10 minutes. What works for his bipolar illness is Mustard (mood swings), Aspen (unknown fears), Heather (excessive talking), Holly (anger), Chicory (argumentative, self-absorbed), Vervain (high strung and determined to do things only his way) and Rescue Remedy® (trauma of it all).

The meds he use to take for this illness NEVER could prevent it or calm him down (unless he was heavily drugged), then he was a zombie. His doctors and teachers have a difficult time believing this works but his improvement is the evidence. His alternative doctors are very pleased and supportive. He is the first child in our school district who has flower essences in the nurse's office for emergencies instead of meds like the other children.
 That was an effort to get them to accept this but we did prevail! Share the earth,

Terrible twos

Rescue Remedy® - an amazing product. We applied two drops to the tongue of a very upset and cranky two year old. Within 5 minutes she calmed down to the point of being able to eat a good dinner. Shortly after the dinner she dropped off for an hours' nap. When she woke, she was a completely happy playful child, you would never have known she was the child from hell not one hour earlier.

Truly a Miracle

I took 4 drops of Rescue Remedy® last night (for the 1st time) and was amazed. I felt positive results (sense of calm, sharper concentration, yet relaxed) I also slept so well and had wonderful lucid dreams--waking up refreshed for the first time in weeks. Having had "proof" of its efficacy, I am compelled to find out, and try out, more about Dr Bach's flower essences. I live in Wisconsin; there are no local practitioners; yet I feel I've made a profound discovery and want to "do something" with it. Truly a miracle!

Canines with Epilepsy

Rescue Remedy® is widely used for canines who have epilepsy. Given during a seizure it  can stop a seizure in midstream ( it has done for my dog Emma) Also given immediately after a seizure it stops the hours of postictal wandering that many owners of seizing dogs go through which in some cases can be more scary than the episode itself.

Scaring

 

I have just begun using the Bach Flower RescueCream for the scarring on my face from the PCOS caused acne, do you work for the company? If so, please let someone know that the cream is wonderful, I have only been using it a couple of weeks and the scars seem to be beginning to fade.

Curing Stomach Ache

My Mothers friend in England told her about Rescue Remedy®. Now she & her dog take it. I went over to my moms last weekend. I have constant stomach problems. I had been in terrible pain for four days.The pain was so severe that it kept me up at nights. Nothing I had taken eased the pain. My mother put one dropper full of Rescue Remedy® on my tongue and within 5 minutes the pain was completely gone. The pain had subsided all day into the early evening. I am a firm believer in Rescue Remedy®. It certainly worked for me! I went out and purchased some that following week.

Thanks so very much for inventing such a wonderful product! Debbie
