Hand foraged wild Arnica Flowers infused in organic sunflower seed oil from Canada’s Northern wilderness. At Laughing Lichen we travel long distances to find this lovely aromatic northern wild flower. Once harvested we immediately infuse the delicate flowers in organic sunflower oil to extract the wonderful medicinal properties that arnica is so well known for.
Arnica was a favorite “go to” herb when I was a young tree planter for easing sore muscles and bruises acquired while tramping through the bush all day. Wild Arnica has been used as an herbal remedies for thousands of years by many different cultures. Its most common application is as a topical application to aid in the treatment of swelling, bruises, painful muscles, and sprains.
Wild Arnica Oil can also be used to make you own herbal remedies at home.

I found this worked really well for helping relieve some my children’s, and my own, aches and pains. Sore post exercise or overworked muscles seem to respond well to a short gentle massage with this oil. I do recommend it!

This is top notch oil! So thrilled to be not only getting it right from the source, but from a small company who have exceptionally high standards from collection to packaging. Buy this! You won’t be disappointed!

Years ago I stumbled across arnica and from the first day I applied it, I never used a product like aspercreme, myoflex, cold/hot etc. The bottle it came in is very nice, and the oil worked phenomenally on some bruises and sore muscles I suffered this summer.
One question: how much is too much to apply? The dispensing top took a lot of shakes to get a little bit out, so I just popped it off and poured a bunch out.

Hi Char
Thank you for the lovely review – I am glad you are enjoying the Arnica oil. The dispensing cap is more of a safety to keep the bottles contents from leaking during shipping. It is fine to remove it for ease of dispensing. This product can be used at your discretion as needed. Do not apply to broken skin. Thank you and take care!
