Frequently Asked Questions

What is Arnica montana and how does it work topically?

Arnica montana is a mountain plant with a long history of use in European herbal and homeopathic medicine for trauma, bruising, and inflammation. The active compounds in arnica (helenalin, chamissonolide, and sesquiterpene lactones) have demonstrated anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and antibacterial properties in laboratory research. Topically, arnica is applied to bruises, haematomas, muscle soreness, sprains, and post-surgical swelling — and is widely used in sports and physiotherapy settings.

When should I apply Arnica Gel for bruising?

Apply as soon as possible after injury — the sooner Arnica is applied to a bruise or haematoma, the more effectively it may limit the extent of bruising and swelling. Apply a thin layer 2–4 times daily to the affected area. Do not apply to broken skin, open wounds, or mucous membranes.

Can I use Arnica Gel before sport for muscle preparation?

Yes. Applying Arnica Gel before physical activity as a pre-sport rub is popular with athletes and sports teams. Applied to muscles that will be worked intensively, it may help reduce post-exercise inflammation and delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS).

What is the difference between Extra Strength and standard Naturo Pharm Arnica products?

Extra Strength products use a higher homeopathic potency — more suitable for more significant injuries, pronounced bruising, deeper muscle soreness, and joint swelling. The standard strength is appropriate for minor bruising and everyday muscle fatigue. For significant sports injuries or post-surgical bruising, Extra Strength is the preferred choice.

Is Arnica Gel safe for children?

Topical arnica gel is generally safe for use on children for bruises and bumps from falls and active play. Do not apply to broken skin or near the face of young children. For infants and very young children, consult your pharmacist or GP before using herbal or homeopathic preparations.
