Cherry Plum

A retired policeman with Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome was introduced to the book Floral Acupuncture by his wife. After reading about possible treatments from the book that might help, he chose Cherry Plum. As soon as he applied Cherry Plum to 'Great Hammer', its direct acu-point, he said that within minutes this area of the lower neck/upper back suddenly flattened out. As this location had been chronically sore and rounded for years, this was a great and very welcome surprise. Long standing shoulder tension also suddenly released itself as this area on the spine flattened out. He continued to apply Cherry Plum each day. He reports that this area of his back continues to be smooth, the temper flares he'd had for so long are now alleviated, and he feels greatly more under control. - JC Kauii, Hawaii.

My 5 year old son has been taking flower essences internally to calm him down. During a temper tantrum I offered him his essences, which he refused. He then said he only wanted the essences that should go on his back. I'd previously shown him a bottle of Cherry Plum and the picture showing the floral acupuncture points for Cherry Plum but had not explained what it was for. I placed a drop of Cherry Plum onto GV 14 and he calmed down really quickly. I was impressed by how quickly he calmed down but was more amazed by the fact that he knew exactly what he needed. - Mother/ UK
