SYMPHOSAN’S SEVEN INGREDIENTS – 2
Arnica, which may be found anywhere in Switzerland up to a height of about 2800 m (8,500 feet), has been recognised as an aid to healing wounds for thousands of years and is acclaimed as such in the oldest herbal records. Contusions with extravasation of the blood into the adjoining tissues are also cured by means of an extract from the root. Arnica will encourage proper capillary circulation, which makes it an important ingredient that enhances the effectiveness of the other plant remedies.
Besides these six ingredients making up Symphosan, there is yet one more. It is houseleek (Sempervivum tectorum), a plant that used to be found growing on the roofs of old houses in Switzerland, especially on thatched ones. It may not have been a good thing for the roofs, but the householders certainly knew how to take advantage of the fresh plant to treat inflamed eyes, burns, scalds, ulcers or sores and wounds, for which it is a cooling and healing medicine.
All these outstanding herbs are combined to make Symphosan a truly remarkable remedy that should be kept in every medicine chest and rucksack.
