Nelsons is a British alternative medicine company, with subsidiaries in Germany and the US. It is a market leader for homeopathic remedies. The head office and manufacturing facilities are located in Wimbledon, London, with a retail pharmacy in Central London. Spatone is manufactured at the Trefriw Wells Spa in Snowdonia, Wales. == History == In 1860 Ernst Louis Armbrecht, a student of Samuel Hahnemann who founded homeopathy, moved to London where he opened a homeopathic pharmacy in Ryder Street so as to put into practice the principles learned from his teacher. Ernst married Charlotte Nelson in 1866〔 and soon after began trading as Armbrecht, Nelson & Co., later to be abbreviated to A. Nelson & Co.〔 In 1890, Nelsons Homeopathic Pharmacy moved to Duke Street and is still trading there today.〔()〕 For most of Nelsons history all manufacturing was done in the basement of the Duke St site, but in the 1970s it was moved to Brixton and later Wimbledon. In the 1990s a second pharmacy was opened in Dublin which closed at the end of June 2012. The company was owned by the same family for more than 100 years, but the remaining descendants of the founding family were killed in the Staines air crash in 1972.〔 The remaining management team approached Dick Wilson, who had a long-standing passion and commitment to complementary medicine, to take over the company.〔 Under Dick's management Nelsons began production of their first range of over the counter homeopathic medicines in 1981. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nelsons (Homeopathy)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
