Got Arnica?


Arnica (arnica montana) has been used for medicinal purposes since the 1500's. It is recognized by the FDA as, generally regarded as safe, for external use only. Arnica, known mostly to Europeans, and Native Americans to soothe muscle aches, reduce inflammation and heal wounds. Germany's Commission E, an expert committee on herbal drugs and preparations from medicinal plants, cites Arnica Lotion as an effective treatment for various post-traumatic conditions, including bruises, sprains, contusions, rheumatoid arthritis, and swelling due to fractures. Arnica is also very effective for sore muscles, joints, back, neck, and knee pain. Most over the counter arnica products are prepared homeopathically. Homeopathic doses are extremely diluted, and have no detectable amount of plant matter in them. Salmon Creek Botanicals, a natural skin care company in Washington State , manufacture a blend of arnica montana and ground ginger with their unique method of herbal infusion technology, and the healing powers of essential oils to produce an extremely effective arnica product with a very high herbal content.
