Mend: All Purpose Healing Salve
Mend: All Purpose Healing Salve
Mend is an all-purpose healing salve that every family needs in their herbal medicine cabinet. St. John's Wort, Calendula, and Comfrey are infused with the light of the sun and full moon and extracted into local organic olive oil.
These three powerful herbs promote cell repair, treat damage to nerve endings, and prevent scarring. If used on a bruise, bite, scrape, cut, or chapped skin it significantly speeds the healing process and allows for new cell growth. The essential oils of tea tree and lavender prevent itching and are anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, anti-fungal, and antiseptic disinfectants. Frankincense and Myrrh help with cellular repair as well.
Mend all-purpose healing salve is a must-have for your herbal first aid kit. Take camping to use on mosquito bites to help stop the itch, or use it on a scrape or bruise to soothe and heal it quickly. It has also been an effective post-surgery salve to help heal and lessen the appearance of scars.
Naturalis Tip: Not to be used on open wounds. If using post-surgery, wait until stitches have been removed, and then apply a thick layer of salve daily until it has finished healing. For minor cuts, scrapes, bites, or burns, apply liberally to the affected area and let it soak in.
