ORIGINAL: chellekitty and finally, i have heard people talk about arnica over and over, and i have personally used it for relaxing muscles (which goes along with the epsom salts), but never for reducing bruising, and yes i can see theoretically how it would work on the same principle, but has anyone ever had first hand experience with it reducing bruising? Yes, I use it all the time and I have had it reduce those huge bruises that are so purple they appear to be black, you know the ones that are red hot to the touch get a hard knot in them about the size of a baseball....and dissipate them within a matter of a few days. Without the arnica, it would normally take my body a few weeks to fade a bruise like that. It will not stop them from occurring in the first place though.
