Natural, Herbal, Therapeutic Body Care for The Whole Family
Skin is our largest organ and plays a vital role in maintaining our overall health. This “epithelial tissue” covers and lines our bodies, performing functions that protect us from microbial invasion and environmental hazards, regulate our body temperature, and maintain hydration.
Our skin’s exposure to the external world leaves it vulnerable to injury, bacteria, fungus and wear and tear – all of which have been treated for centuries by applying plant and herbal remedies.
Looking to this herbal tradition of topical treatments and body care we created a line of therapeutic skin oils and creams that gently and effectively treat common family health conditions.
Cuts, Burns, Skin Inflammation and Irritations
Calendula is a powerful herb that relieves skin inflammations, irritations and treats wounded and damaged skin. Its flowering tops have also shown antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory properties.
Calendula is exceptionally effective for skin conditions, as it helps stimulate the repair of epithelial tissue, speeding and enhancing the healing process.
Calendula Salve
Salves are ideal for relieving skin irritations and healing injuries as they sit over the area for longer periods due to their thicker consistency.
Made from certified organically grown calendula infused in extra-virgin olive oil and beeswax, Calendula Salve is an “occlusive” – meaning it locks in moisture – and is protective against environmental factors and ideal for dry skin.
Our carefully crafted herbal salves contain few ingredients, there is minimal risk of skin reaction or allergy making it suitable for sensitive baby skin and in healing surface scratches or wounds.
Ear Infection, Earache, Wax Buildup and “Swimmers’ Ear”
Ear Oil is a highly effective remedy for relieving the inflammation, pain, discomfort, and itching associated with ear infections, swimmer's ear, non-specific dermatitis of the external ear canal, and helps to remove excess earwax.
Ear Oil is infused with traditional herbs that work synergistically, featuring mullein, which has been used for hundreds of years to treat infections, as well as garlic, a potent antimicrobial. Healing calendula offers anti-inflammatory effects that aid in tissue healing, and St. John’s Wort helps to treat nerve pain.
How to use: Add 5 drops of oil directly in the external ear canal 3 times daily. (for children - lay head in your lap with affected ear facing up to add drops).
Topical Therapeutic Treatment of Body Tissues and Organs
Castor Oil has been used topically since ancient times to ease inflammation and detoxify inner organs. This plant-based oil is extracted from the bean of the castor plant and traditionally used in Ayurvedic medicine.
Commonly applied to enhance the condition of tissues and organs beneath the skin, Castor Oil helps relieve pain, aid circulation, stimulate and detoxify the liver, assist lymphatic circulation, promote elimination, ease inflammation, and improve digestion.
Applied externally, this oil can penetrate the skin to help with constipation, swollen glands, menstrual cramping, circulation, muscle and joint strains and sprains and relieving painful, inflamed areas of the body by enhancing the health of tissues and organs beneath the skin.
Our Castor Oil is fresh, cold-pressed, cultivated, hexane free, and organic.
How to use: At bedtime, rub a generous amount of oil on the affected area in a clockwise motion (which is the same direction as the colon), cover with a cloth and then apply a hot water bottle.
