DR. EDWARD BACH

"Disease of the body itself is nothing but the result of the disharmony between soul and mind. Remove the disharmony, and we regain harmony between soul and mind, and the body is once more perfect in all its parts."
- Dr. Edward Bach

Dr. Edward Bach (1886-1936) was the doctor who "discovered" and gave the modern therapeutic approach to the elaboration of flower remedies. Dr. Edward Bach achieved to elaborate the 38 flower essences known as the "Bach Flower Essences" or "Bach Flower Remedies" and brought to life a curing method possible to use for everyone, even for the uninitiated at the medical applications and procedures.

Being a bacteriologist and pathologist, Dr. Edward Bach studied medicine in Birmingham and later he moved to London where he practiced as a house surgeon. Working as a private practitioner in his own laboratory in Harley Street,  he undertook his original research on the topic of the vaccines.

Dr. Edward Bach' research was very successful but he felt dissatisfied with the medical protocols that the doctors at that time were expected to follow. When he was working at the Royal London Homeopathic Hospital he became an advocate for a more "holistic" medicine and a more healing approach to health.

Instead, he conducted his research and medical practice with homeopathic protocols by dismissing the regular standard protocols and by choosing to see the persons as "whole" instead of focusing only on the "disease". Dr. Edward Bach paid very close attention to the parallels between his discoveries on vaccines and the principles of homeopathy adapting his vaccines to produce a series of seven homeopathic nosodes.

​Because of his publications and the fame he gained in different medicine circles, people began to consider him "the second Hahnemann." Dr. Edward Bach spent his precious life time trying to find the remedies that were coming from nature. He was finding the ones that would be pure and less dependent on products of disease. Thus, he started collecting plants. In particular, collecting different wild flowers - the more highly developed part of the plant - with the hope to be replacing the nosodes with a series of non-harmful remedies.

Over several years of trial and error, testing many different thousands of plants, and being guided by his "holistic vision" of the medicine and by following his own intuitions, Dr. Edward Bach could select the appropriate flowers as an applicable remedy for the particular cure that was needed by applying each flower essence to a particular mental conditions or emotional states of the patients.

We could affirm that by doing this, implicitly, Dr. Edward Bach was treating the personality and the sufferings of his patients together with the personal conflicts that were leading to physical illness and distress. The goal that he had in mind all the time for his patients was to naturally alleviate their distress and unblock the healing potential in their minds, bodies and souls.


The house where Dr. Edward Bach and Nora Weeks moved in 1934 is today the Bach Centre in Mount Vernon. It was in the garden of this house where he could find the remaining remedies that he needed in order to complete his series. Interestingly, Dr. Edward Bach was such devoted to his purpose that he was guided along a discovery process that helped him to find the exact plants that would cure his own emotional health conditions each time he tried and tested a plant.

Through such personal vocation and persistent dedication in finding a cure for himself and others, a year later, Dr. Edward Bach completed the work of his life. He left his work in hands of his friends and colleagues Nora Weeks and Victor Bullen (a local builder and healer) and left them with instructions about how to prepare the remedies and stay true to his methods.

Dr. Edward Bach outlived a medical prognosis by nearly 20 years and left behind the new preventive system that is used all over the world today by many practitioners and people that seek for improve their health naturally. Dr. Edward Bach passed away in peace in 1936 when he still was 50 years old.
