The system of plant- and flower-based essences was developed in the 1930s by Dr Edward Bach, a physician and homeopath convinced that emotional wellbeing was key to overall health. He spent many years exploring the use of flowers and plants to develop his simple and gentle system of 38 flower essences, setting up The Bach Centre in Oxfordshire, England, where we continue to prepare the essences exactly as he did.  

Nelsons' link with the Bach™ Original Flower Remedies goes back to the 1930s and Dr Bach himself. As demand grew, Dr Bach supplied us with his concentrated essences, ready for our Pharmacists to make up and pass on to the public. Over the years, the relationship between The Bach Centre and Nelsons continued to grow and we now manufacture and distribute the essences across the world.
