Synergistic uses

ANGUISH

Silver linden is associated with the second macerate, best known for its calming action, Fig. Hawthorn can also be used in the case of symptoms of cardiac origin.

INSOMNIA

Silver linden can be used with Fig Tree for insomnia. It is usually a good duo for nervous problems as both are calming.

ARRHYTHMIA

Silver linden helps to calm arrhythmia thanks to its sedative action. For even greater effectiveness, it can be combined with Hawthorn macerate, an important cardiac regulator.

HYPERTENSION

For hypertension, silver linden can be combined with Hawthorn macerate, which normalises tension, and Olive macerate, which acts slowly but surely.
