Healing Salve

I made this green salve a couple of months ago and it has been the best stuff!

We used it when my youngest brother got the chicken pox. It really helped with his itching and also helped him heal within a couple of days!

My Dad recently used it also. He burned him self on the grill pretty badly, and after applying this salve for several days his hand is heal completely!

Anyway, there are so many other uses for this salve.

Such as rashes, bruises, sprains, itchy skin, diaper rash and the like!

Healing Salve

1pint Vegetable Oil

2oz. Comfrey Leaf

2oz. Chickweed

2oz. Yarrow Flowers

2oz. Golden Seal Tops

1oz. Myrrh Powder

1oz. Echinacea Root

1tsp. Lavender Essential Oil

5oz. Bee wax

Vitamin E oil

(sorry I don't know how much I put in)

Combine herbs and veg oil in crockpot.
Heat gently for about 2hrs. Stirring occasionally.

Strain herbs (Be careful the herbs are very hot!) I squeezed them to get all of the liquid out.
And discard then them.

Pour liquid back in crockpot. Keeping it warm, add beeswax and vitamin E oil/
Make sure the beeswax is completely melted before moving on.

As the salve cools it should be the consistency of peanut butter. If it is to runny and more beeswax.

When the beeswax is melted, stir well and pour into tins.

I used 2oz. tins, but it really doesn't matter what size.

Allow to cool.

You now have salve!

We keep ours in the ref. just to keep it fresh.

Have fun!!
