🌿 What Are Flower Essences?
Unlike essential oils or herbal extracts, flower essences are vibrational remedies. They capture the energetic imprint of flowers and work on the emotional and behavioral level — not just the physical.
Developed by Dr. Edward Bach in the 1930s, these remedies are widely used in holistic healing and are now gaining popularity for pets.
🐶 How Flower Essences Help Pets
They gently ease emotional challenges such as:
- Separation anxiety
- Excessive barking or clinginess
- Fear of loud noises (fireworks, thunder)
- Trauma from past abuse or abandonment
- Overexcited behavior or irritability

Use a non-alcoholic, pet-formulated blend or consult a holistic vet. Start with 2–4 drops 2x daily or during specific stress situations. Consistency is key for emotional healing.
