Are you familiar with or a devotee of homeopathic medicine?

According to Google, Homeopathic medicine is an alternative medical system developed in the late 1700s, based on two core concepts: "Like cures like" (a substance causing symptoms can treat similar symptoms) and the law of "minimum dose"(the more diluted a substance the more potent it is) thereby triggering the body's natural healing process.  

Does it work?  Who knows?  Why not!

Anyway, Arnica is a homeopathic gel which I use daily for whatever ails me.  It is manufactured by Boiron, a French company.  

The label says it is made from Arnica montana fresh whole plant and states: Claims based on traditional homeopathic practice, not accepted medical evidence.  Not FDA evaluated.  

Nonetheless, I believe it works, as advertised, to relieve inflammation, muscle pain and stiffness and, especially, bruising symptoms such as swelling and discoloration.  

Try it.  You just might like it!
