Now that I have introduced you to Zion, today belongs to him. Zion is adventurous and loves to ride his bike. As such, he's been riding all summer and dealing with every thing that comes from racing down the side walk at speeds that I can't bring myself to look at. Well today, one of our older neighbors jumped on his pegs while he was in motion. The they both hit the sidewalk. So tonight I spent my time nursing a huge black and blue bruise on this thigh. At this moment, I realized that I wish I had soaked the Arnica that I bought some time ago. I need Arnica Oil! Why did I procrastinate knowing that I would need it sooner that later especially with Zion's deep love of dangerous activity.
Arnica duty is to heal and soothe muscle aches, reduce inflammation, and heal wounds. It is often the first remedy used for injuries such as sprains and bruises. Arnica should not be used internally. For city moms, as I am the best way to have on hand is a great arnica salve that takes minutes to apply and work wonders for all the bumps and bruises of summer. If you are in to making your own the best way to start is to make Arnica oil. Purchase your Arnica from a well known herbal supplier and immerse in olive oil for 4-6 weeks in a sunny window. Once the oil is made, prepare a simple salve with beeswax. You won't be sorry for its uses will be plenty.
