Thread: healing liniment

Hello everyone;
As some of you know i have a history of herbalism, which i still dwell in now and then. While dwelling in an old indian herbology book I decided to make an arthritis liniment that may help my 92 year old dad with his arthritis and bursitis pain. I decided to use well known old remedies with little or no side effects.

What i've done is make a remedy that has worked on other things to. This remedy is an easy homemade one and i want to share the recipe with my saltcube friends as well as those at gates of mysticism. Everyone who has tried this for external remedies has offerred compensation I DON'T WANT ANYTHING IN RETURN OTHER THAN YOUR FINDINGS --- so far it has worked for swellings, arthritis, bursitis,neuralgias, vericose veins,sore muscles.

Absolutely safe for external use =is made from safe ingredients,but, not used internally as far as i know.
HERE IS THE RECIPE

1. 1 QT. OF WATER BROUGHT TO A BOIL
2. 6OZS. GINGER ROOT (CHOPPED FINE) OR 4 HEAPING TABLESPOONS
OF DRIED POWDER
bOIL FOR 25 MIN. AND REMOVE FROM HEAT AND SET ASIDE THEN ADD
3. 2 HEAPING TABLESPOONS OF EACH, ROSEMARY,SAGE,THYME,BASIL,AND
4 OZS. CHAMOMILE FLOWERS IF AVAILABLE
let steep 25 min.

or until fairly cool
(do not add the non root herbs while boiling water and ginger
root as they have volatile oils that will evaporate in high
heat)
strain and measure the liquid. add 100 proof whiskey enough to
equal 25% of the total mixture.
if you have 3 cups of tea then you would add about 3/4 cup of
whiskey or vodka.

It doesn't cure anything such as arthritis,it just provides a
relief from the nagging pain.
remember to thank ALL THAT IS for providing the healing medicines in the plants we grow.
just rub it on the area (test a small area first) and see if it works for you.
