Herbs have traditionally been used to assist a person to come back to a healthy state of well being. Individual herbs, specifically prescribed for a particular situation may assist the body to come back into balance, thereby allowing a healthy homeostasis to be reinstated as nature intended. The herbalist looks to the whole person, their values and attitudes as well as their circumstances and physical condition along with other aspects of their individuality. This is in marked contrast to the allopathic medicine approach.
Below you will find an example of selected herbs for a particular condition. Herbal support can take a variety of forms and combinations, so it is vital that each person consult directly with a qualified holistic practitioner to gain the full benefit of immunity and health building support.
This mix is a variation on the Eye Wash, modified to help address the problem of habitual tension which is actually responsible for most eye strain and difficulties with sight.
There is a long standing conception that eye sight problems are due to changes in the shape of the lens but there is very good and long standing evidence that this is not the case. Habits of strain within the larger muscles attached to the eye ball itself, and responsible for its mobility, cause changes in shape of this organ thereby affecting the focus at the back of the eye.
The Eye Health Special includes Celandine, Golden Seal, Rue and Valerian as well as the Bach Flowers Honey Suckle, Vine and Rescue Remedy,
The Eye Health Special combines the health benefits of the Eye Wash with Valerian and homeopathic treatments to remedy habits of tension, thereby allowing the eye to relax and facilitate exercise based re-training for seeing defects.
Caution: The Eye Wash and the Eye Health Special are both concentrated extract mixes and must be only used in diluted form as they are too strong for direct application.
