I came up with two salve recipes that I'm quite proud of. One is a Sweet Warming Salve that I created while I was taking a Circus Arts class and needed a safe salve to use on my hands. The class was great fun, but doing the silks is a hand-joint killer, and I could not safely leave BenGay on my hands because if you get it into your eyes accidentally, it can damage them. So I wanted just a gentle warming that would help ease the pain in my hands that I could leave on without worry. I developed this incredible smelling salve that works wonderfully. My mom, who also struggles with arthritis, is hooked on it. She says she uses it every night and loves how it soothes her hands and feet. It has the added benefit of warming up cold feet in the winter before bed!
I also came up with a hemorrhoid balm that is awesome! My mom is also a big fan of this one, and she says, "It's not only eased the pain of the hemorrhoids, it's actually shrunken them!" which she said no other store-bought product has been able to do for her. I use it also to relieve itching and just calm down an inflamed bum. I have IBS, and that area gets way too much activity, so I always need a calming, cooling kind of moisturizer to use down there. This salve is gentle, soft and creamy to apply, pain and itch-relieving, and also smalls absolutely wonderful!
