Arnica Oil 1:6 Topical
Arnica Oil 1:6 Topical
A popular first-aid remedy for trauma, injuries.
Arnica is the pre-eminent remedy for trauma, injuries,
and accidents and is a common part of first aid kits and
home medicine cabinets. This topical oil is massaged into
painful tissue that has been traumatized from an acci-
dent, athletic event and overexertion. Massage Therapists
and Chiropractors commonly use arnica oil on muscle
and joints that are problematic in order to disburse con-
gested fluids in a painful area.
It is thought that Arnica works as a fluid transport stim-
ulating herb. It moves interstitual fluids through ischemic
tissue. Ischemic tissue is tissue that has diminished oxy-
gen content because of restricted blood and fluid flow.
This action by Arnica on the painful tissue helps it heal
and stop the pain cycle. As a result of the increased cir-
culation, cellular waste is removed, bruises clear up, pain
diminishes, tissue heals, tissue oxygenates and recovery
time is significantly reduced.
Athletes find arnica reduces potential for injury, reduces
recovery time from injury and bruising.
Arnica Topical Oil is great for the daily bumps and
bruises inevitable in life and especially childhood. It is
safe for kids.
Phyto-Tech™ Arnica Oil 1:6 Topical contains the fol-
lowing: Arnica montana Flowers (Wild Harvested), Sage
Essential Oil, Extra Virgin Cold Pressed Olive Oil,
Note: First extracted in alcohol and oil to maximize
potency, then the alcohol is removed.
Special Note: Most Arnica on the market is “Mexican”
Arnica. This is commonly Heterothica inuloides, an adul-
terant and is not true Arnica. The Vitality Works Arnica
products are made from the true European Arnica mon-
tana.
Cautions: Do not apply to open wounds, ulcerations or
on areas prone to bleeding; Do not take internally;
Discontinue use if very sensitive skin results in a rash.
Complimentary Formulas and Single Herbs:
Phyto-Tech™ MuscleGesic, an oral formula for muscle
and general body pain, inflammation
Phyto-Tech™ Comfrey Root 1:3 (to promote healing of
breaks, fractures, sprains, cuts, lesions)
Phyto-Tech™ Valerian Root 1:2 (for severe pain)
Phyto-Tech™ St. John’s Wort 1:2 (if nerves are very sen-
sitive or painful)
Dosage: Massage into effected areas as needed. Repeat
2-3 times per day or as needed.
Arnica works best if applied in full concentration to the
problematic area. It is less effective if applied all over the
body as massage oil. Use a different oil for a massage
(i.e. almond oil) and arnica on the painful area.

Ashwagandha Root
Ashwagandha Root
Known as “Ayurvedic Ginseng,” Ashwagandha supports
stamina, endurance, and energy.
Who would benefit from this supplement? Those suffer-
ing from fatigue, stress, immune system problems, chron-
ic fatigue syndrome, recovery from illness and auto-
immune disorders. Ashwagandha is an adaptogenic herb,
similar to ginseng, but it is less heating, “yang” or simu-
lating than Panax ginseng.
Ashwagandha is known as the “Ayurvedic” Ginseng. It
is indicated for the same types of conditions as Ginseng,
but Ashwagandha is not heating, Yang or stimulating like
Ginseng (Panax varieties). It is used preventatively for
those who have difficulty replenishing the energy they
expend, and want to avoid burn out. Burnout from unre-
lenting stress can take the form of immune breakdown
(colds, flu), headaches, irritable bowel, blood sugar
swings and any other genetic, predispositional or consti-
tutional weakness. Ashwagandha gives additional life
force or Chi to help adapt to the stresses at hand.
It can also be used as a restorative for those who have
already burned out. Ashwagandha, as part of a rejuvena-
tion treatment plan is effective in chronic fatigue syn-
drome, depression, debility, recovery from wasting dis-
eases, chemotherapy and helps while one is in emotional
recovery therapy.
Ashwagandha is also indicated specifically in autoim-
mune disorders. It helps immunity to self modulate. It
also has an affinity to help chronic neuro-muscular disor-
ders such as fibromyalgia and multiple sclerosis (MS).
Phyto-Tech™ Ashwagandha Root contains the follow-
ing: Fresh Ashwaganda Root (Withania somnifera), Grain
Alcohol, Deionized Water. It is certified organic.
