The healing properties of Arnica are widely known and it has been used since the 11th century. Arnica Montana grows in the mountainous regions of central Europe, where shepherds reported that sheep and goats would eat Arnica after a fall.
Even the most severely injured animal would soon be back on their feet fully recovered. The shepherds themselves then tried Arnica Montana and, finding it helped to speed recovery from injuries and they spread the word of its success, which has been confirmed recently by scientific research.
Arnica is taken internally as a homeopathic remedy, mainly after injury; sprains; bruising; after operations; visits to the dentist; childbirth.
Arnica is best known as an effective treatment for sprains and bruises; aches and pains after physical pursuits such as cycling and gardening and for rheumatism and arthritis.
Arnica improves the local blood supply and accelerates healing.
