Description
Most home medicine cabinets hold a variety of salves, balms, liniments, and other topical treatments for soothing everyday skin conditions and body ailments. Many of these are expensive and contain long lists of unpronounceable ingredients. In "Hands-On Healing Remedies", holistic care expert Stephanie Tourles offers natural herbal alternatives that are effective, easy, safe, and fun to prepare. Recipes include Sweet Annie Serenity Body Oil for soothing anxiety, Aloe Disinfecting Wound Wash for healing minor cuts and scrapes, Dream Weaver's Relaxing Rub for easing insomnia, Black Walnut Clay Pack for drawing out splinters, and many more. As the only book offering this in-depth focus on herbal topical applications, "Hands-On Healing Remedies" is sure to appeal to natural health enthusiasts, crafters, homesteaders, families, and anyone seeking a more holistic approach to common first-aid and therapeutic needs.
