Once
upon a time, Arnica used to be the most important mainstay in
everyone's first aid box. There was no ailment, however minor or
serious, that this miraculous liquid wonder was unable to tackle. It
was an indispensable component of everyone's everyday life. But, that
was then!
Now,
there are very few people who either know it or use it! But, one of
the few who still very much use it and believe in it is a lady I had
tea with last week.
Margaret
Felder grew up before the war in Poland, and, because of the ways of
those times, she saw very much of her grandmother. And her
grandmother was in medicine. And, in those days there was no
difference between homeopathy and mainstream medicine, and, so it was
that Margaret understood and experienced the healing powers of
Arnica.
Arnica
was not only the perfect remedy for the scratches and scrapes of
everyday childhood life, but also the internal sore throats and
stomach aches of adult excess! It was good for everything, and,
when rubbed in, was an instant relief for all sorts of assorted aches
and nasty complaints!
So,
where is it now? The good news is that it hasn't completely passed
into the past! It is still widely available, and Margaret Felder and
her children are amongst those who wouldn't be without it! So what
about you? Why not check it out? This flora based marvel could,
too, become part of your first aid box!
