How To Make A Pain Relieving Coconut Oil Arnica Salve

Many people use arnica montana herb for topical pain relief. It has been used in homeopathic medicine for hundreds of years. Arnica works by dilating capillaries, which increases blood flow to and from the injury. This increased blood flow brings healing hormones to the area and moves stagnant blood (like bruises).
