All-Purpose Liniment
A versatile herbal oil for everyday aches, stiffness, and minor strains — keep a bottle on hand for whatever comes up.
What you'll need
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 2 tbsp dried arnica flowers (or comfrey leaf)
- 10 drops wintergreen essential oil
Steps
- Warm olive oil gently and add the dried herbs.
- Let steep 30 minutes off heat, then strain.
