Arnica for muscle and joint pain – Saludable Magazine | Food | fitness | Beauty – News Block

There’s nothing like a good workout to feel happy and alive and reduce stress. But as the endorphins wear off, the euphoria can give way to a feeling of tiredness, heavy limbs, and sore muscles and joints.

At times like this, many people turn to arnica as a traditional natural remedy. Prized for its anti-inflammatory properties, more than 150 active compounds have been found in arnica, making it an excellent natural sports remedy to support post-exercise recovery.

“Arnica helps me train more often”

Endurance athlete Laura Try says:
‘I use Weleda Arnica Massage Oil as a body moisturizer and treatment every morning after I shower to care for my skin and soothe sore muscles. At the end of the day, I stretch, mobilise, and massage the Arnica Massage Balm into tight areas of my body while sitting in the living room with my housemates. Twice a week I take a warm bath with Arnica Muscle Soak, which is my absolute favorite thing to do. I could be in the bathroom for hours, letting all the goodness soak into my body. And that smell is a dream! I can train so often thanks to these products.’
