klmama Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 I just saw this in the health food store today. Does anyone know if it really works? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cillakat Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 It doesn't. At all. There is a small body of evidence regarding flower essences. What evidence there is indicates that it is no more effective than placebo. ah well.. Katherine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3babiesmommy Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Agreed. Tried it (and many other natural things) here as well. None worked:( At least our health food store had a great return policy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angieathome Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Hopefully this doesn't change the subject too much----I found that my daughter's inattentiveness improved with the occupational therapy she was getting for sensory issues. I think there is evidence that inattentiveness is a brain "processing" issue and the same OT works for it as for other processing issues. You might at least look into it. It is non-invasive--my dd actually thought it was fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mom2jjka Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 We tried this for my kids and it didn't work very well either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katherine OK, a little OT but pertaining to effectiveness of Rescue Remedy in general (not necesarily the Clematis tincture): I have never used it (clematis RR)on my children for the purposes described in this thread; however I did use the original RR on a cat of mine that was "shocky" after getting banged up inside a central-air unit outside my neighbor's house. After we recued her we brought her in, and for the entire night through she was leaning against a wall,dazed, her eyes were funny and she was drooling (for about 12 hours)- until a friend came over with some (RR) to see if it would help. Within 5 minutes my little kitty was rubbing up against my leg and meowing. I have no doubt it was effective, and I don't care that the results were only anecdotal...I know it worked.
