It is a fact attested to by practitioners of Biochemical Tissue Salt therapy since Dr. Schüssler first developed them, and borne out time and again in my own experience of using them to help patients for many years, that individuals who take the tissue salts and follow the guidelines for their correct use tend to have more energy, sleep better, and generally feel more relaxed and at ease - in a word, more in harmony with themselves. This, of course, is nothing more or less than a feature of being healthy: something some people, so accustomed to the stresses and discomforts of hectic twenty-first century life that they have come to think of that unpleasant condition as normal, may actually have forgotten!

Biochemical Tissue Salts provide wellness for life. Below are a few typical cases from my own practice. Barbara G.

Swollen and painful hands... A 70 years old woman had very swollen and painful hands and, as may be imagined, had great difficulty performing functions most of us take for granted. For instance, she could not hold a fork. The medical profession had been unable to help her at all. When she came to me I checked her hands in the same way I evaluate a face for mineral deficiencies, and combined exactly the right proportions of the necessary biochemical tissue salts ointments into one ointment mixture for her. She applied this ointment directly to her hands, and then covered them with cotton gloves, every night for about four months. The improvement was enormous, and she regained use of her fingers. As it happened, this woman's own son is medical doctor, and, in his own words, 'I could not have helped you'.

Suffered from asthma... A very sceptical Registered Nurse who suffered from asthma came to my office for an evaluation. How could I possibly detect deficiencies of her metabolism just by looking at her face? How could a product so strange and yet so simple as these tissue salts help her with her health problems? But she did have a Facial Analysis, and she did try the tissue salts, and about six weeks later she called and said she needed some more. Since taking the Biochemical minerals, she said, she had not needed her inhaler; not even once.

Slipped on the ice... Another woman had slipped on the ice that is a ubiquitous reality of winters here in Canada, and having landed on her - to put it delicately - posterior, was hardly able to move with soreness and pain. She could not, for instance, put her shoes on and off without extreme discomfort. I first balanced her energy that was broken through the accident, and then I massaged the appropriate ointments (Mag Phos to relax, Calc Phos to heal, Ferr Phos to bring oxygen to the muscles, and Silica for the bruising) into her lower back and sacrum for two consecutive days. Even after the first application she was able to move easily again, and she took more of the ointments home.

Wanted a second child... A young couple wanted a second child; she had taken the fertility pills that had been prescribed for her for a year without benefit. They both took my Inner Journey workshop, which removed some of their inner blockages, and both took Biochemical Tissue Salts. (They had plenty of encouragement, too, from the other people in the workshop!) The workshop was once a week for 10 weeks. Immediately after the last session, she did indeed find herself pregnant. The combination of removing the multi-level blockages caused by negative experiences in their past and supplying the missing essential inorganic nutrients was followed by the appearance of a new life.

Complaining of sciatic pain... A woman in her fifties came to me complaining of sciatic pain. Her pain was so great that she was reluctant even to try to move. I again used a mixture of ointments: Mag Phos, Calc Phos, Kali Phos and Ferr Phos. In this case I massaged each one separately into the skin. I administered two applications myself, and after that she took the minerals orally and continued to apply the ointments herself. Her sciatica had completely gone one week later.
