Naturopathic Protocol for "Biffing it" On The Ice. 

The cheapest way to get these oils is to become a member. Email me at desiree@modernhippie.org for info on how! Yep, over the weekend I slipped on the ice and came down full force on my elbow. I was terrified!

Not only did it hurt but the first thing to enter my mind (as I left my wallet and groceries in the street to get arnica from the glovebox) was, "How will I do Craniosacral with a bum arm?"

Luckily I got the arnica montana 30C in about oh- 30 seconds after I fell. I took it pellet after pellet for hours. Here are the rest of the things I did, and I think that these make GREAT first aid remedies to have at all times for any trauma. Remember- If you need to go to the hospital, call 911- then grab the homeopathics and herbals for on the way!

Arnica Montana 30C (GOTTA HAVE IT) This is a must for every first aid kit for trauma, bruising, accidents, head trauma especially and pain.  1 pellet under the tongue every 15 minutes for pain or injury. Available at all health food stores.

Hypericum 30C This is more for "nerve pain" which I began to experience a few hours after the fall. This is great for those strange stabbing sort of nerve ending pains that might come and go or hang around. Take this in the same manner as Arnica Montana. 1 pellet under the tongue every15 minutes for nerve pain. Available at all health food stores.

Panaway by Young Living Oil. I am officially a believer. Not only do I have ZERO pain 4 days later but the swelling went totally done within 24 hours. I only applied this maybe 3 times. It's very potent and only 1 drop at a time is needed.
