Valerian officinalis is a medicinal plant renowned for its soothing and sedative properties. Used for centuries in traditional pharmacopoeia, it has earned its place among contemporary homeopathic remedies thanks to its multiple benefits, particularly in the treatment of sleep disorders and anxiety.

Origin and composition

Valerian has its origins in Europe and Asia. Its rich composition, mainly centered around its roots, is the key to its therapeutic properties. Once dried and prepared as a mother tincture, valerian roots form a powerful extract used in a variety of homeopathic treatments.

Sedative properties and benefits

Valerian officinalis is distinguished by its remarkable calming effect. It is particularly effective in soothing states of stress and anxiety, known precursors of sleep disorders and depression. With its sedative action, valerian helps improve sleep quality and reduce episodes of insomnia, without inducing dependency or noticeable side effects, which sets it apart from conventional drug treatments.

A natural spasmolytic

In addition to its effects on the nervous system, valerian is also recognized for its spasmolytic properties. It acts effectively against various types of spasm, including gastric and muscular spasms, offering relief in a variety of situations where the body is subject to involuntary tension or contractions.

Usage and dosage

To benefit fully from the effects of valerian, it's important to follow the recommended dosages. Whether in capsule, tincture or infusion form, valerian must be used in accordance with the advice of a healthcare professional to avoid any interactions or undesirable effects.

If there is no improvement within 24 hours, consult your homeopathic doctor.

Valeriana Officinalis offers an effective, natural therapeutic option for those seeking relief from stress, anxiety and sleep disorders without resorting to synthetic drugs. Its availability in different formulations and dilutions underlines homeopathy's commitment to offering personalized solutions, harnessing valerian's soothing virtues to promote well-being and relaxation.

Indications and dosage

Homeopathic medicines can be used for a variety of symptoms, so it is not possible to determine the indications and dosage of a specific preparation.

The homeopathic physician selects the appropriate medicine, dilution and dosage according to the patient's condition and characteristic symptoms.

Relief of Behavioural Disorders
Boiron's Valeriana Officinalis is a homeopathic solution recognized for its effectiveness in treating behavioral disorders linked to anxiety and stress. Whether you suffer from insomnia due to chronic pain, mood swings, agitation or spasmophilia, Valeriana Officinalis offers natural soothing, helping to restore emotional balance and promote a general state of well-being.

An answer to rheumatological pain
In rheumatology, Valeriana Officinalis also stands out for its targeted action on pains such as sciatica and acute lumbosacralgia. By providing relief from pain that is aggravated by rest and improved by movement, this homeopathic remedy helps improve the quality of life of people suffering from rheumatological conditions, facilitating better mobility and increased comfort.

Towards a balance between movement and rest
Valeriana Officinalis' effectiveness lies in its ability to harmonize the needs of body and mind, offering relief from symptoms aggravated by stress and static posture, while promoting improved well-being on the move. Incorporating Valeriana Officinalis into your skincare routine can be a key step towards a more serene balance and enhanced overall health.

Treatment of insomnia

Valerian has significant sedative effects, making it a remedy of choice for people suffering from insomnia linked to chronic pain. By soothing hypersensitivity to pain and stabilizing moods, it facilitates falling asleep and improves sleep quality. In addition, for individuals exposed to high stress, Valeriana Officinalis helps overcome sleep disorders, including initial insomnia or nocturnal myoclonus.

Soothing Spasms: Focus on Spasmophilia

Valerian excels in the treatment of psychic pain and spasms. Thanks to its antispasmodic properties, it effectively relieves spasms of the digestive tract as well as those of the laryngeal muscle, offering particular comfort to people suffering from spasmophilia. It is also useful for alleviating the muscular myoclonus often observed during spasmophilic attacks.

Additional indications

In addition to its effects on insomnia and spasmophilia, valerian works synergistically with anxiolytics to treat lower back or sciatic pain resulting from prolonged anxiety or excessive excitement. Its sedative properties are particularly beneficial in relieving lumbosacral pain, common among athletes under the pressure of competition.

Dosage for spasmodic pain

The approach to spasmodic pain is slightly different. Valeriana Officinalis homeopathic granules should be taken under the tongue until completely dissolved. Each granule contains a mixture of lactose and sucrose. To effectively treat spasmodic and chronic pain, the suggested dosage is 5 granules, twice a day. This quantity is particularly indicated for muscular and gastric spasms. The dilution of the remedy varies according to the intensity of the pain, generally oscillating between 4 and 5 CH. When Valeriana Officinalis is used as an antispasmodic, treatment lasts three months.

Treatments and conditions associated with Valeriana Officinalis

Valeriana Officinalis is not limited to the treatment of insomnia and spasmodic pain; it is useful in a wider range of pathologies:

• Anxiety and chronic stress: its calming effects help manage anxiety and stress, reducing their physical manifestations.
• Sleep disorders: In addition to insomnia, it can help regulate other forms of sleep disturbance.
• Lower back pain: As an antispasmodic, it brings relief in cases of lower back pain linked to muscular tension.

For optimum use of Valeriana Officinalis, it is essential to consult a healthcare professional who can adapt dosage and dilution to the specific needs of each patient. This will ensure maximum efficacy of treatment while minimizing the risk of adverse effects.

Giving homeopathic granules to babies and children

For granules or alcoholic drops, dissolve in 100ml of water. As granules take a long time to dissolve, it is necessary to prepare your mixture in advance.

Homeopathy and pregnancy

Homeopathic medicines have no chemical toxicity, no contraindications, no interaction with other drugs, and no adverse effects linked to the quantity of product ingested. Pregnant women can use homeopathic remedies without any known risk to themselves or their unborn child, but it is advisable to seek advice.

Frequency of homeopathic use

For acute conditions, homeopathic remedies should be taken every hour until symptoms improve. From then on, they should be taken 3 or 4 times a day, spaced out, and then gradually stopped.
For chronic conditions, low-dilution remedies (> 9CH) should be taken 1 or 2 times a day, while basic remedies should be taken once a week, or even once a month. This decision is left to the homeopath.

What to do if there is no improvement within 24 hours

Certain pathologies cannot be treated with homeopathy simply by self-medication. Their severity requires medical advice from a homeopathic doctor. This doctor will judge whether your condition can be treated with homeopathy alone, or whether your treatment needs to be supplemented with allopathic medicine.
