Simple Salves- Yarrow, Plantain, and St. Johns Wort
We believe everyone deserves access to food, beverages, and healing-related products! Please reach out to us for sliding scale options.
All are effectively used on cuts, scrapes, bruises, burns, skin ulcerations, varicose veins, and hemorrhoids: on one hand, you really can’t go wrong with any of them for any of these topical uses (barring, of course, any specific contraindications an individual may have with a certain plant).
So why choose one versus another?
Plantain’s demulcent action makes it particularly useful when tissue is irritated and needs soothing, as well as for the healing of insect bites and dermatitis.
St. John’s wort is particularly useful for burns, including sunburn.
Yarrow’s antihemorrhagic and styptic actions make it particularly helpful when stopping bleeding is a priority.
