The saying ‘no pain, no gain’ is attributed to many endeavours in life, but considering it is a way of your body warning you, it may be a sign to consider supporting your body, the natural way.
Arnica often needs no introduction as support for injury, fatigue, and bruising because of its long history of use as a natural remedy. It is known as Fall herb (Fallkraut) by locals where it grows on mountain slopes in Germany, a common place for slips and falls. A less well-known fact about Arnica is its use for long-haul flying. If you’re travelling overseas for a sporting event, a business trip, or a well-deserved holiday, Arnica helps support the body’s natural ability to cope with long-distance air travel and supports normal sleep patterns, making this an ideal first aid companion on those overseas trips.
Muscle tension is a familiar condition often associated with exercise, but almost everyone experiences it at some stage in life. Tense muscles can arise from a wide variety of causes, from muscle fatigue, overuse of muscles, or imbalances in fluids, hormones, or body salts.
Arnica, a plant native to Europe and North America, has been used for centuries for its medicinal properties. Here are some of the potential benefits of arnica:
- Pain Relief: Arnica is commonly used topically as a natural remedy for pain relief. It contains compounds such as helenalin and dihydrohelenalin, which have anti-inflammatory properties that may help reduce pain and swelling associated with conditions like arthritis, muscle soreness, and bruises.
- Anti-Inflammatory Properties: Arnica has been traditionally used to reduce inflammation. Applying arnica topically may help alleviate symptoms of inflammatory conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and sprains.
- Bruise Healing: Arnica is often used to speed up the healing process of bruises. Its anti-inflammatory properties may help reduce bruising and swelling when applied topically to the affected area.
- Muscle Soreness: Athletes and individuals experiencing muscle soreness may benefit from using arnica. Applying arnica gel or cream to sore muscles may help alleviate discomfort and promote faster recovery.
- Wound Healing: Some research suggests that arnica may promote wound healing. It may help stimulate the production of white blood cells, which play a crucial role in the body's immune response to infections and injuries.
- Homeopathic Uses: In homeopathy, arnica is used orally in highly diluted forms to treat a variety of conditions, including shock, trauma, and post-surgical recovery. However, more research is needed to confirm its effectiveness in these applications.
