Schüssler Cell Salts are naturally occurring mineral salts that help regulate cellular metabolism. They were developed by German physician Dr. Wilhelm Heinrich Schüßler (1821–1898), who believed that many diseases stem from imbalances in the mineral composition of the body’s cells.
There are 12 primary cell salts and 15 supplementary ones, each with its own function and therapeutic action.
How Do Cell Salts Work?
Cell salts help restore the body’s mineral balance at a cellular level. Unlike regular supplements that work systemically (on blood, tissues, or organs), cell salts act within the cell itself. In cases of deficiency or imbalance, they support the body’s self-healing ability.
When to Use Cell Salts
Schüssler Cell Salts can be used for a wide variety of complaints, including:
Fatigue or low energy
Stress and irritability
Headaches and migraines
Poor skin condition (e.g., acne, eczema)
Slow wound healing
Muscle and joint pain
Immune system support
Digestive issues such as constipation or cramps
They are considered safe, even for use during pregnancy or in children, as long as they are tailored to the individual's needs.
Mesology & Schüssler Cell Salts
In Mesology, Schüssler Cell Salts are often used as supportive remedies in a personalized treatment plan. Through tongue diagnostics, electro-physiological measurements, and a thorough intake, the mesologist identifies where mineral imbalances occur in the body.
Cell salts can then be used to support:
Restoring energy balance
Improving cellular metabolism
Strengthening skin, hair, nails, and mucous membranes
Supporting detoxification processes
Mesology does not treat symptoms alone. It addresses root causes. A deficiency in Silicea, for example, may indicate poor nutrient absorption, system overload, or imbalance in connective or excretory tissues.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Are Schüssler Cell Salts the same as supplements?
No. Cell salts act at the cellular level. Supplements work more broadly in the body.
Can I combine cell salts with regular medications?
Yes, they are generally safe to combine with medications. However, always consult a qualified practitioner.
How do I know which cell salt I need?
A mesologist can determine this through a full intake, tongue observation, and electro-physiological diagnostics.
Are cell salts safe for children?
Yes. When correctly chosen, they are gentle and safe—even for babies.
How long should I take cell salts?
This depends on the severity and nature of the complaint—some use them for weeks, others for longer.
Can I take multiple cell salts at once?
Yes. Many cell salts work synergistically and are often combined.
Are there any side effects?
Not typically. However, if used incorrectly or excessively, mild detox reactions may occur.
How does mesology help with mineral imbalances?
By measuring and identifying deficiencies or absorption problems, and addressing them with tailored advice, cell salts, nutrition, and supplements.
Can cell salts be used preventively?
Yes. Especially during stressful periods or weakened immunity, they offer gentle support.
