Schuessler Combination A Tissue Salts 125 Tablets

When the day finally winds down, many of us want nothing more than to feel settled and comfortable. Schuessler Combination A is a three-salt blend from Martin & Pleasance that has traditionally been taken by people looking to support restful nights, particularly when nerves and muscles feel less than relaxed after a long day.

It's a simple formula, but a thoughtful one. By combining three phosphate salts in a single 6X tablet, Combination A saves you from juggling separate bottles and gives you an easy evening ritual that fits neatly alongside a warm drink and a good book.

The Three Salts in Combination A

Each tablet contains equal parts Ferrum Phos (iron phosphate), Kali Phos (potassium phosphate) and Mag Phos (magnesium phosphate), all at a 6X potency. In the tissue salt tradition, Kali Phos is known as the nerve salt, Mag Phos is closely linked with muscles and nerves, and Ferrum Phos is often described as the first aid salt of the twelve.

Together they make a gentle, nerve-and-muscle focused blend. Many people take Combination A in the hour or so before bed, with the final dose at bedtime as the label suggests, while others prefer to spread doses through the day as part of a steady maintenance routine.

A Little Tissue Salt History

Dr Wilhelm Heinrich Schuessler (1821-1898) was a German physician based in Oldenburg who became fascinated by the mineral content of the human body. After studying the ash left behind from human tissue, he identified twelve inorganic salts he believed were vital to healthy cells, and in 1873 he published his findings. He called his approach biochemic, and he prepared each salt in a tiny, finely triturated form so it could be taken comfortably by people of every age. His twelve salts have travelled the world ever since, and they remain a familiar part of natural health routines today.

About Martin & Pleasance

The Schuessler range is made by Martin & Pleasance, an Australian natural health company with roots in the nineteenth century and one of the best known tissue salt specialists in the world. Each salt is prepared at a 6X potency, meaning it has been diluted one part in ten, six times over, and the tablets are small enough to chew quickly or crush into a little water. The twelve single salts are numbered alphabetically from No 1 Calc Fluor to No 12 Silica, which is worth noting, as some other brands use a different numbering order.

Building Your Routine

The traditional approach is little and often. Many people take Combination A four times a day as a maintenance routine, ideally half an hour before meals with the last dose at bedtime, and increase the frequency for short periods when they feel they need it. Keeping your doses away from strong mint, coffee and food is thought to help, and consistency over several weeks tends to matter more than any single dose.
