All about healing

Healing after surgery, injury or childbirth (including Caesarean birth) can be a slow and painful process. Depending on the extent of the injury or operation, this can take days or even months. There may be internal or external wounds and bruising - or even (in the case of injury) broken bones and damaged organs.

Healing is a process which takes place on many levels - physically and psychologically. Connective tissue, blood vessels and nerve fibers have to restore themselves and regenerate. White blood cells have to remove infection and red blood cells have to bring oxygen rich blood and nutrients to the surrounding area. Rest is important - as is a peaceful and positive mind. Effective pain control helps to make the person comfortable, prevents stress and permits healing rest.

How can natural remedies help?

Our bodies have an inbuilt ability to heal themselves which is one of the greatest miracles of nature! Provided that we receive proper care and nurturing, healing will take place by itself.

Natural remedies can harness the body's innate healing mechanisms, speeding up the healing process while also providing pain relieving, anti-inflammatory and soothing properties. Best of all, they can do this without the side effects and complications sometimes associated with many prescription drugs.

What are the ingredients of RealHeal?

RealHeal contains the following ingredients in our unique herbal and homeopathic complex formula:

Arnica D6: - is a highly respected ingredient in homeopathic medicine and has powerful anti-inflammatory and tissue healing properties. It is used extensively to treat shock, injury and for post-operative care and also helps to control bleeding. It is often prescribed to help with post-childbirth pain, as well as joint and muscle pain and fever. Although this herb is potentially toxic in its raw state and is therefore only used externally, homeopathic manufacturing methods ensure that Arnica is safe to use internally.

Filipendula almaria: - also known as Meadowsweet, is a herb which has been used for centuries by herbalists to treat fever and pain. Modern science reveals that this herb contains salicylates - a natural chemical similar to the pharmaceutical aspirin. Unlike, aspirin, however, Meadowsweet has pain relieving and anti-inflammatory properties without side effects such as stomach ulcers and the risk of Reynaud's Disease, associated with the use of pharmaceutical aspirin.

Magnesium phosphoricum D6: - is a biochemic tissue salt found naturally occurring in the body. It is known as the 'homeopathic aspirin' due to its unique pain killing and curative properties and is also an effective muscle relaxant, preventing and treating spasms and cramps and promoting relaxation.

Symphytum officinale: - also called comfrey, contains allantoin - a chemical which encourages bone, cartilage and muscle cells to grow. This explains why comfrey is called 'knitbone' by traditional healers, helping to heal wounds and injuries of all kinds.

Matricaria recutita C6: - is known for its soothing, anti-inflammatory and pain relieving properties.
