Quick Facts

Who Arnica Oil Is For

• Active people with sore muscles after training, sport or yard work
• Anyone with sprains or bruises who wants a traditional topical herb
• People with joint pain looking for an oil they can massage in
• Massage therapists and clients who prefer a certified organic massage oil
• Those who want a simple, alcohol-free formula — arnica, olive oil and rosemary extract only

Who this product is NOT for:

• Open wounds or damaged skin — the label says do not apply to wounds or damaged skin
• Children under 12 — the label is for adults and adolescents 12 and older
• Use under a bandage or with a heating pad — the label warns against both
• Breastfeeding women should not apply it on or near the nipple

Vitamart's Take

Arnica is the classic herb for bumps, bruises and sore muscles, and this is a straightforward, well-made version: certified organic arnica flowers infused in organic extra-virgin olive oil, with rosemary extract as a natural preservative. Because it is an oil rather than a gel, it doubles as a massage oil, which makes it practical after a hard workout. Use it on intact skin only — arnica is not for cuts or scrapes — and skip the heating pad.

How Arnica Oil Compares

Arnica oil vs. arnica creams and gels

An oil glides well for massage and works into larger areas like the back or legs. Creams and gels absorb faster and feel less slippery for a quick spot application.

Arnica oil vs. St. John's Wort Oil

Both are St. Francis infused oils for the skin. Arnica is chosen for sprains, bruises and muscle and joint pain. St. John's Wort Oil is a topical herbal oil often used for massage and skin.

Topical arnica vs. Devil's Claw tincture

Arnica oil works where you apply it. St. Francis Devil's Claw is a tincture taken internally, traditionally used for joint pain and osteoarthritis.

What Is Arnica?

• Arnica (Arnica montana) is a perennial flowering herb native to the mountainous regions of Europe
• It is a revered herb in Western herbalism, traditionally applied to the skin for bruises and sprains
• In Germany it has long been known by folk names like "wound herb" and "fracture herb"
• The flowering tops are the part used; here they are infused in olive oil at a 1:5 herb-to-oil ratio
• Arnica is used topically on unbroken skin

Recommended Purpose

• Helps to relieve pain and inflammation in muscles and joints
• Soothes sprains, bruises and joint pain

How To Use

• Adults and adolescents 12 years and older: apply thinly and evenly to the affected area up to 3 to 4 times per day
• Rub and/or massage into skin until the preparation disappears
• Do not apply to wounds or damaged skin; do not bandage
• Do not apply with external heat, such as an electric heating pad, as this may result in excessive skin irritation or skin burn
• Breastfeeding women should not apply on or near the nipple; hypersensitivity (allergy) has been known to occur, in which case discontinue use
• Keep out of reach of children; store in a cool, dry place
