If Your Husband is a Week-end Warrior, then Stock up with Arnica Rub!

man-on-crutches-crop3My 6′5″ tall husband, Warren, injured himself playing basketball by pulling a calf muscle, and like the true weekend warrior, came home to his ministering angel to repair his wounds. He burst through the door limping, barely able to walk, screaming for me to get the crutches and the arnica rub.

When an event like this happens to a friend or family member, you reach into your bag of tricks and pull out everything from ice packs, Epsom salts, ibuprofen, hot tubs to various botanical products, including a super arsenal of arnica pills or arnica tablets and an arnica rub.

Warren knew from past experience that adding arnica pills to a regiment of Epson Salts soaks and deep muscle massage with arnica cream, would greatly improved the speed of his recovery. In the past, Warren didn’t want to use the arnica tablets, arnica rub or ibuprofen pills since he wanted to be tough, but after a week’s worth of suffering from his previous injuries and several months of recovery, he had learned his lesson. Now, he knows better and listens to me right from the beginning.

After the first Epsom Salt soak and deep massage with Elixer Arnica Sports RubTM, he abandoned the crutches since the pain was manageable.  Twenty-four (24) hours later, the pain was gone, and no more massages. One week later, in which he used Elixer morning and night, he was back on the court playing carefully (not wanting to re-injure himself) a game of basketball.

And I got a dozen long-stem roses.
