BACH REMEDIES FOR ANIMALS
Emotional healing for animals made easy with Bach flower remedies
We know that animals think and feel. They may not have the ability to express their stories and their feelings verbally, but if we observe them closely, watch their behavior, interact with them, and feel for them, we would be able to identify their emotions and help them with the right remedies.
Over the years, healing our animal friends with holistic methods to improve their overall well-being has become increasingly popular.
The remedies are extremely safe and gentle, as they are made from plants and water, then preserved in alcohol. The remedies are diluted in water hence the amount of alcohol is reduced to trace levels (near 0%), and should not cause a problem.
The Bach remedies can help animals to overcome their emotional difficulties.
Animals are an assurance that the remedies are not placebos.
Consult a vet if you think your animals are in pain or need medical attention.
Crisis Formula (Rescue Remedy) for animals
Some of you might be familiar with Crisis Formula (Rescue Remedy), a combination of five remedies ready-mixed for emergency use. It is often recommended to animals to stay calm and in control when they are in distress. It contains:
- Star of Bethlehem (Shock)
- Clematis (faintness)
- Rock Rose (Terror and panic)
- Cherry Plum (for hysteria or loss of control)
- Impatiens (Impatience, irritability & agitation)
However, Crisis Formula (Rescue Remedy) is not a panacea for all problems.
Crisis Formula can deal with immediate stress, it will not resolve deep-rooted emotion imbalances or behavior issues, which should be treated accordingly with one or more of the 38 remedies.
The art of selecting a remedy for your animal friends
Selecting remedies for animals is straightforward, as animals do not have as much emotional baggage like us. Choosing of remedies them involves observing the way they live and interact, and understand what is happening from their point of view. Once you know how you feel about your animal friends, simply match them with the appropriate remedies. Some owners find it difficult but if you can put yourself in their shoes, you will know why it is acting the way it is. The key is, keeping it simple and not over-analyzing the situation. Just treat what you see and trust your gut feeling, after all, it’s your pets. Misreading their response to a certain situation is common, and so is selecting a wrong remedy.
Do not worry about selecting the wrong remedy; it will not have any effect on them as remedies work by encouraging the corresponding positive quality that lays dormant in them. In short, the remedies don’t put anything in them that aren’t there already.
Working with a Bach Foundation Registered Animal Practitioner
If you are new to the system, working with a practitioner will help you to select the right remedies for your animal friends.
Bach Foundation Registered Animal Practitioners (BFRAPs) are practitioners who have specialist training in animal behaviour.
BFRAPs will want to ensure an animal client has been checked for any undiagnosed veterinary condition before attempting to select remedies for its emotions. This is because we want to ensure animals are being treated for any medical or veterinary problems.

Hi, I’m Mr. Ong Hong Seng, the 1st Animal Practitioner in South in Asia.
Bach Flower Remedies is a well-respected system of healing that has been used in 80 countries since its establishment in 1936 by Dr. Edward Bach, a highly qualified Harley Street physician, bacteriologist, and pathologist.
Bach Flowers help to balance emotions by encouraging the corresponding positive quality that lays dormant in humans and animals, without suppressing negative state. For example, Cherry Plum improves self-control, Larch to boost confidence and Chestnut Bud for failing to learn from mistakes.
Some common behavioral problems like spraying could be caused by stress or territorial issues. The remedies have been found especially helpful are Walnut, Vine, Beech or Chicory and Crisis Formula. Walnut is the remedy for adjustment, Vine, Beech and Chicory for possessive or dominant cats to feel more relax about asserting themselves and be gentle towards others.

In every negative emotion, there is a positive side to it, just like a coin of 2 sides. For example, the positive quality for impatience is patience, fear is courage and hatred is love.
Remedies are selected based on your current emotional imbalances, and taking the corresponding Bach remedies will bring out the respective positive qualities in you to balance the negative ones, just like a see-saw. More about the remedies.

After the discussion, a mixing bottle, which the client has agreed on the remedies, will be mixed.

What made our Bach products unique?
Julian Barnard, the founder & remedy maker of Healing Herbs, was taught to make Mother Tinctures by Nickie Murray who worked closely with Nora Weeks at the Bach Centre in the 1970s. This tradition of how to make the remedies as specified by Dr Bach is adhered to by Healing Herbs to this day. The remedies are prepared with the same care and dedication by people who know what they are doing and why.
