Nourish London Arnica Massage Balm

It's been a little while since I've posted about Nourish London, but their newest launch caught my attention.

The organic brand has just released a trio of Massage Balms, each designed to address specific needs. The Eucalyptus Massage Balm is designed to clear and refresh the senses (perfect for seasonal colds), the Soothing Massage Balm aids relaxation, and the *Arnica Massage Balm relieves aches and pains, but also has quite a few other benefits that I'm about to delve into.

Each balm comes in a dinky, handbag-friendly 15ml glass jar (you don't need a lot) and retails for £10 each at nourishskinrange.com

I have been trying the Arnica Massage Balm for a couple of weeks and so far my whole family has used it. My daughter was actually the first to try the balm - she slipped over recently and bumped her cheek so I suggested we apply a little. She's now so obsessed with the ginger, lavender and rosemary scent that she'll often ask for a smudge of the 'magic cream' for no reason at all.

Why Arnica Is a Game-Changer

Arnica has been cherished for centuries for its anti-inflammatory properties and its ability to ease bruising and sore muscles. This powerful herb works by stimulating the body’s natural healing processes, helping to reduce swelling, relieve pain, and promote faster recovery.

But Arnica’s magic doesn’t stop there—it’s also fantastic for improving circulation, which can be especially beneficial after intense physical activity. By boosting blood flow to affected areas, Arnica helps your muscles recover more efficiently, reducing stiffness and discomfort.
