A New Look At Tissue Salts.
Tissue Salts (also named Schuessler salts or biochemical salts) were developed by Dr Wilhelm Schuessler. His theory is based on the assumption that every disease is caused because for the lack of a specific mineral salt. Such deficiency leads to dysregulations inside the cells and, thus, obstructs the free flow of molecules.
What is good about TS is that they can be taken for a long period (mineral reserve requires time to be replenished), as a stand-alone treatment or in combination with homeopathic constitutional remedies. They can be used for prevention or, in some cases, treatment of diseases.
You can always ask me about the use of TS for either multiple conditions or to address a specific issue. This is a longstanding knowledge, yet not well publicised in the UK. I would love to share the great benefits of salts from numbers 13 to 33.
In classical homeopathy, mental symptoms come first, then we confirm our choice with physicals. We prescribe one or two doses (pillules) to stimulate the vital force and treat the cause of the disease. Any stressful situation can affect our mental as well as physical states. And that can result in the loss of vital minerals. TS are great for replenishing such loss and can be a good companion to classical homeopathy.
For full diagnosis and prescription of the right amount of TS, it is often better to consult a homeopath. But I would like to give you a taste of some wonders of tissue salts you never thought of.
Arsenicum iodatum 12x - digestion tonic, good for stomach. It is also used for food intolerances, allergic asthma, hay fever, skin problems, and Raynaud syndrome.
Kali Arsenicosum 12x - good effect on thyroid hormones and low blood pressure, adrenal glands, regulates body weight and has a general strengthening effect on the body. It can be used in various gynaecological issues, stomach affections and also assist with insomnia (due to fear or anxiety).
Kali Iodatum 12x - hair loss, palpitations, thyroid problems and high blood pressure, good effect on heart and brain activity, immunity tonic. It can also support exhausted people overwhelmed with responsibilities.
Aurum Muriaticum Natronatum 12x - any gynaecological issue can be supported with this salt. Plus it has a positive effect on heart function.
Calc Carb 12x - great support in early ageing. There are so many combinations of tissue salts that can be used for skin health. Dry skin, wrinkles, acne, open pores and PH balance of the skin - all can be addressed with TS.
Natrium Bicarbonicum 12x - low stomach acidity. Can be combined with Natrium Phosphoricum 6x to help with reflux and gastric complaints.
Please, ask away about TS combinations that would be most suited in your particular case.
