Arnica Montana - Nature's Healer

We all know that aloe vera is soothing and cooling, and chamomile is relaxing, but did you know about Arnica? This amazing medicinal herb has been taken internally in Europe for centuries to heal organ trauma, and applied topically to reduce swelling, treat bruises, wounds and bug bites.

It has anti-inflammatory properties, and is mild and non-agressive in topical skin care products. What is really amazing, is Arnica's ability to reduce bruising - the mechanism in lies in the herb's ability to stimulate blood flow and move stagnition through the veins and capillaries. When a lesion of capillaries is traumatized by physical impact, or inflamed from exposure to the harsh elements, we see the dark color on the skin's surface. Applying an Arnica gel to the area significantly reduces the swelling and dark patch, and brings the color back to normal, as well as moves blood through the damaged capillaries for reduced discomfort and pain.

One of the most amazing masks which I have ever tried is the SAIAN Restoring Mask enriched with Arnica. This happens to be my personal favorite because of the formula being so pure and clean. It is almost edible, in fact it looks and smells almost tempting enough to eat! (It seems pretty logical given that research from the Archives of Facial and Plastic Surgery shows that when arnica is taken orally before surgery it reduces inflammation and reduces bruising!)  This topical gel does wonders on broken capillaries, inflamed skin, and dark under-eye circles. Did you know that under-eye circles are types of bruises, as well? They are formed by the same mechanism - clusters of broken capillaries which look dark under the skin, and give a dull and restless appearance on our faces. In addition to  Arnica, SAIAN Restoring Mask packs a powerful combination of vegan Hyaluronic Acid, Copper Peptide Complex, Aloe Vera, Cucumber Extract and Sage! This mask really is amazing, and I recommend it to everyone. Just 15 minutes will transform your skin!

  1. I'll bet you won't guess which muscle in your body is the muscle that eliminates joint and back pains, anxiety and burns fat.

    This "hidden primal muscle" is in your body and will boost your energy, immune system, sexual energy, strength and athletic power when unlocked.
