Apply
pure lavender oil on the area to prevent bruising and to speed recovery.
CALENDULA
Apply
calendula ointment over the bruise.
First Aid Oil
You can make your own first aid oil for bruises and other minor injuries
easily.
Infuse some calendula oil
by putting 2 teaspoons of calendula petals in 2 tablespoons of cold pressed
sweet almond oil in a small glass jar. Those mini jam jars would be just
right. Leave the jar in the sun for at least 2 weeks.
Mix 2 drops of lavender oil and 1 drop of chamomile oil in 1 teaspoon
of the calendula oil. (Strain away the calendula petals before use).
Keep
this oil blend in an air tight dark glass bottle. Light will cause the
essential oils to deteriorate. I usually recycle my essential oil bottles
by using them to contain my oil blends. You can use this blend on the affected
area, to prevent bruising, to ease the pain and to speed up healing.
