Description
Our Travel/Jetlag Combination has been around for more than a decade and contains remedies traditionally used to assist with symptoms which can arise as a result of air travel: jet lag, travel stress, exposure to radiation, and change of environment and time zone.
Arnica is one of the key remedies in the combination and, with its known affinity and traditional use for bleeding, swelling and the veins is included to assist on long trips generally.
We have also included SOS, which is our version of Bach Rescue Remedy, but aimed at the stresses of the 21st century, so supportive during times of stress, which can often be an element of travel!
We also recommend you consider taking our Get Prepped or Travel Prep (same remedy) during any travel to give some level of support against the various illness to which you may be exposed.
Get Prepped or Travel Prep are useful for supporting our system in relation to colds, flu and other acute illnesses at these times, particularly when we are sitting on a plane or train amongst people who may already be sick. There’s nothing worse than starting or ending a holiday with a cold or flu!
See Notes for our suggested use of Get Prepped or Travel Prep during travel.

How to Use
Travel/Jetlag
Since this remedy is aimed at supporting your system against a variety of symptoms quite specific to long plane trips, we usually suggest starting off with 2 or 3 doses on the day before travel, and then taking a few times a day until you are over the flight and your jetlag at the other end.
You can also put your remedy (drops or pilules) into a water bottle and sip throughout your trip which is a good way to give to children.
If you cannot take liquids onto your flight, we suggest you take an empty water bottle with you and fill from the water station on the aircraft, or top up with the complimentary water supplied during the flight.
Hydration is an essential part of surviving any long flight!
Get Prepped or Travel Prep – Immune Support
Our recommendation during travel is to take either of the above remedies as follows:
- Start by taking once a day for 3 days before travel (particularly by air or train and continuing for the first 3 days of the trip, so 6 days in total.
- Then take once a week while away.
- On your return take as in step 1.
- If you are doing a lot of air or train travel you should find once a week will be enough after the initial doses.
- If you know you’ve been exposed, take 3 times a day for 3 days.
- If you start to come down with an illness, take as above but add any other indicated remedies such as Cold & Flu or Throat Sootha.
FAQs
Dosage for Remedies
These notes are a general guide.
Homeopathy is not an exact science and while we can offer general suggestions as to how to give the remedies, each case will be a little different in terms of how often a remedy may be required to bring about improvement.
With homeopathics, because we are working with energy, not substance, we want to give just enough to stimulate the body to do the job. If your remedy works brilliantly with the first dose, you don’t need to repeat unless the symptoms appear to be coming back again.
If you’re not familiar with using homeopathics see the FAQ How much & how often?
Do read the individual directions on each product (both on the label and in the How to Use in the product description) to ascertain whether usage differs to the suggestions here.
Reach out if you’re not sure.
Drops
Our products are made up according to traditional homeopathic pharmacy protocols and include a small amount of pure alcohol as a preservative. You can read the FAQ here on alcohol in remedies.
For newborns, if you do not wish to put the drops in the mouth, you may apply to the soles of the foot or the top of the head. You can also purchase drops and add a spray top to your order, so that you can spray the remedy onto the soles of the feet. The remedy will work just as well whichever way you use it.
Babies under 6 months – 1 drop or 1 spray
Babies 6-12 months – 2 drops or 1 spray
12 months and above – 4 drops
Organic German Sucrose
Give 1 or 2 pilules per dose regardless of age.
Crush between 2 clean teaspoons if you are giving to a baby and you are uncomfortable with giving whole.
Sometimes the pilules can look wet. This is due to the nature of the organic sucrose. The alcohol – which is the remedy applied to the pilules – will evaporate off as you use your remedies. They should not stick together and this does not affect the effect of the remedies.
Homeopathy is about quality, not quantity!
Creams
All our creams are suitable for vegans, due to the way we make them and the based we use.

Tissue Salts
If you have selected a single tissue salt remedy or a combination, the general suggestion is to take three times a day for up to three months (as per Dr Schuessler’s advice). However, we would expect you would see improvement much sooner than this, likely as soon as a couple of weeks. If you have taken for one month with no obvious difference, choose another tissue salt or consult your homeopath.
