Arnica

So you always say medical.

I remember one time I was taking Arnica gel.

I mean, people say Arnica for pain.

No, I love Arnica gel for my patients.

And I always take one because I always put it over the area where you have like organs that are not working because it relaxes the organ.

And you know, it's funny you mention that because the guy pulled it out and I said, well, it's the cream that I use for like my organ stuff.

Take your zinc, too.

I'm taking the Arnica.

Take your zinc.

Zinc.

I've got a job to do.

I've got to, you know, and I was like, what can what can you give me to make all of this go away? And so she gave me, you know, Arnica and ibuprofen and all the stuff that you would put on cuts and grazes.

And then she slipped me a card for a domestic violence helpline.

And I just felt sick to the stomach because my husband would never touch me.

A homeopathic remedy... is the little bollies you put under your tongue.

Have you ever heard of Arnica?

Oh, sure.

Arnica is for bangs or bruises.

So look what I got right here, Mason, for those of you.

There you go, my little bag of tricks.

You have a kid that gets their wisdom tooth out.

You want to give them Apis, which is made from a bee, for swelling.

Yeah, it's going to help.

Just Arnica is going to help with the bruise anyway.

But this is coming from a sceptical point of view.

Yeah.

But the beauty of homeopathy is it just, You know, it just goes in alongside so I can I can treat the deeper stuff.

But actually, most of what I'm doing is is the acute stuff.

So, you know, it's either Arnica when I'm taking a tooth out, but I use a lot of Traumiel because that's a beautiful complex with lots of different remedies in.

And, you know, and or supporting the tissue salts are amazing for supporting gum health and bone health.

Wow.

Liam has a gnarly bruise on his leg, and I've been giving him Arnica, and it's not working.

I saw it.

I don't think that stuff works.

This remedy fits the people who feel wiped out rather than restless.

And then number five is Arnica for the altitude stress combined with physical strain.

So think exhaustion, muscle soreness, overexertion, body feels bruised, difficulty adjusting after travel.

And this is helpful when altitude sickness is worsened by hiking or activity.

You are the point marked X. but all along there is generally one tooth that has behaved herself like a lady other teeth may have betrayed your confidence but old faithful has hung on attending to business asking only for standing-room and kind treatment the others you may view with alarm but to this tooth you can point with pride but have a care she is deceiving you some night you go to bed and have a dream in your dream it seems to you that a fox terrier is chasing a woodchuck around and around the inside of your head in that tangled sort of fashion peculiar to dreams your sympathy seems to go out first to the fox terrier and then to the woodchuck as they circle about nimbly leaping from your tonsils to your larynx and then up over the rafters in the roof of your mouth and down again and pattering over the sub-maxillary from side to side but about then you wake up with a violent start and decide that any sympathy you may have in stock should be reserved for personal use exclusively because at this moment the dog trees the woodchuck at the base of that cherished tooth of yours and starts to dig him out he is a very determined dog and very active but he needs a manicure you are struck by that fact almost immediately Uttering some of those trite and commonplace remarks that are customary for use under such circumstances and yet are so futile to express one's real sentiments, you arise and undertake to pacify the infuriated creature with household remedies.

You try to lure him away with a wad of medicated cotton stuck on the end of a parlor match, but Arnica is evidently an acquired taste with him.

He doesn't seem to care for it any more than you do.

You begin to dress using one hand to put your clothes on with and the other.
