Bruise away remedy

Bruise is the discoloration of the skin that occurs when the blood escapes from the vessels in the underlying tissues which are damaged.



If you have injured yourself or hit against a solid object, bruises can occur.



People with very thin skin can bruise easily.



The essential oils used in healing bruises are cajeput, lavender and tea-tree.



Use arnica lotion, ointment or homeopathic tablets for treating bruises.  The essential oils are also very effective in easing the pain caused by bruises.  Apply these essential oils directly to the place of injury and then make a compress out of them to be applied to the sore spot.



If you have a thin skin and bruise easily add a blend of five drops of cypress and five drops of lavender or lemon to the bath.



This will aid in strengthening the blood vessels.
