Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I apply the Comfrey & Arnica Salve? For the best results with chronic joint stiffness or repetitive strain, we recommend applying the balm 2–3 times daily. Many of our customers find that a consistent application once in the morning and once before bed provides the most relief.

Can I use this on broken skin or open wounds? While Comfrey and Arnica are incredible for deep tissue and closed skin recovery, this salve should not be applied to broken skin, open wounds, or fresh surgical incisions.

Why do you use dark amber glass for your jars? We use dark amber glass to protect the potent botanical oils from UV light degradation. This preservation method ensures that the herbs remain active and effective for much longer than they would in clear glass or plastic containers.

How long will one jar last? Because our formula is highly concentrated, a little goes a long way. For a single joint (like a wrist or knee), a 50ml jar typically lasts 2–3 months with daily use. We recommend using the product within 6 months of opening for peak potency.

Is this salve suitable for sensitive skin? Our recipe is made with natural, plant-based ingredients. However, we always suggest performing a small patch test on your inner forearm before full application to ensure the botanical oils agree with your skin type.
