Description:
Arnica has been used in homoeopathic medicine for hundreds of years but has
now been discovered to possess powerful anti-inflammatory action when used
externally as a herbal preparation.
How it works:
Arnica contains active components that have a marked anti-inflammatory action.
Arnica stimulates the activity of white blood cells that disperse congested
blood. It also releases fluid from bruised or traumatised areas, stimulating
circulation and acting against bacterial infection. A pain-killing effect
results from these actions.
Additional advice:
For external use only. Diabetics should never self treat for any condition
of the leg or foot.
