Herbal Soak - Complete Tissue
Dr. Christopher, a naturopath and herbalist of the 19th century, combined these herbs to make a soak for one of his clients. Since then this well-loved combination of herbs has been used to help support healthy bones, ligaments, tendons, muscles, and other connective tissues.
Suggested use:
Directions: Put 1 cup of the dried herbs in 2 quarts of cold water. Heat until boiling, reduce heat and simmer 20 minutes. Steep (let it sit) for 20-60 minutes. Then strain through a sieve or cloth. Add hot or cold water to bring temperature to pleasantly hot for soaking. If there is no infection in the area, the soak can be reused a number of times. Keep refrigerated between uses, reheat to use, and do not keep more than 2 days. Alternate hot tea soak with a shorter cold-water soak for best results.
