COMFREY | moisturizing whipped salve

100% Natural Herbal Salve | Medicinal Balm/Ointment |  Moisturizing, Nourishing & Healing

All the salves now come whipped for easier application! The jar has also changed from the one shown – it is now hexagon-shaped with a gold cap.

The flowers and leaves of comfrey are rich in a plant compound called allantoin which is a cell-proliferant that stimulates the repair of damaged tissue. The leaves are also rich in anti-inflammatory and astringent substances and can be applied to help with aching muscles and joints as well as insect bites, scars, skin inflammation, acne, and mastitis. Traditionally this herb is known as “knit bone” because it has been used on sprains, strained ligaments, and fractures for thousands of years. This soothing salve is created with hand-picked and dried comfrey leaves from my own organic garden and is infused into polyphenol and enzyme-rich extra virgin olive oil and mixed with beautiful skin-protective beeswax. A little of this beautiful green salve goes a long way!

Makes a wonderful salve for winter skin for its soothing and healing properties for dry and cracked skin.

Salves are medicinal ointments/balms that have been infused with herbs/flowers to extract the healing properties of the plant. The salve is then applied to the skin to heal and soothe it. Nourishing your skin with oils, flowers, and plants dates back as early as Cleopatra’s rule in Egypt. 

Contraindication: Do not use on new moderately deep cuts or puncture wounds as comfreys chemical constituents may stimulate the outer layer of skin tissue to regenerate too quickly and seal the wound closed before the subsurface has had a chance to begin healing.

The listing is for one 60ml / 2oz glass jar
