AESCULUS (HIPPOCASTANUM) DILUTION C/D 5 - C/D 12

Aesculus hippocastanum, also known as horse chestnut, is a large tree predominantly found in Europe and parts of Asia. It belongs to the soapberry family and frequently grows in parks and gardens. Its characteristic large leaves and striking blossoms make it a popular ornamental tree.

The horse chestnut has a long history in traditional herbal medicine. Its seeds contain saponins, which are used in folk medicine for the production of tinctures and extracts. This has led to its use in various areas of naturopathy.

In homeopathy, Aesculus hippocastanum is traditionally used to relieve musculoskeletal and circulatory complaints. It is said to be helpful for venous disorders and lower back pain.
