comfrey ointment
In ancient times comfrey was called 'knitbone',' all heal' or 'woundwort' and has been used topically for many years for healing cuts, bruises, fractures, sprains, injured tendons/ligaments, sores and skin ulcers. On the skin, it is an emollient, soothing and was used to heal scars and blemishes. It was also said to promote a youthful complexion. The Latin name 'symphytum' means 'heal together'. It is now believed that the allatoin (a main component of comfrey) is responsible for the growth and multiplication of skin cells.

I have already recommended it to several patients." Dr Wolfgang Walter "After being diagnosed with arthritis, I tried using your muscle rub and the comfrey ointment. They have eradicated the problem for me and I have found great relief. I have been recommending them to my friends". Mrs G Burnett, Stonehaven, Aberdeenshire "I have experienced achillies tendonitis for over 20years. Pain relief and anti inflammatory medication had no effect. I have recently been applying comfery cream/ointment to the tendon area and quess what, cured! Swelling gone and for the first time in over 20 years, pain free. I would recommend comfrey to anyone experiencing similar problems." J.B. Northumberland. "Really marvellous for the pain in my knees". Mrs N, Burnham-On-Sea.
"I have been using your Comfrey ointment on my wounds the last few days after my recent operation to remove my gall bladder. When I went to the Doctor this week he was amazed how well they were healing. In fact he actually said when he checked that this was the best he had ever seen after an op." G.M., Aberdeenshire. "Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom and making beautiful healing ointments. Nina (the dog) saw the vet 3 days after I started using the comfrey and calendula ointments, Lavender & Tea Tree oils and he said that the wound was much improved. Due to continued use of the ointments, Nina gets to keep the rest of her tail :-). A huge thank you from me and from Nina :-)" S Southey & Nina, Aberdeenshire From Daily Mail 26 Jan 2010: " A cream made from the herb comfrey could be as good as over-the-counter painkillers for treating sprained ankles, says a new study. In one Italian trial, comfrey ointment was as effective as the anti-inflammatory gel diclofenac on pain, swelling, movement and tenderness. Results from further U.S. studies have led researchers to believe ointments based on the herb might also work for back pain and other painful joint problems, such as osteoarthritis."
