Comfrey-Yarrow

Bath for Whatever Ails You

 

 

 

There are some herbs that are not highly aromatic, yet

are very effective in bath therapy for people. Since ancient times, comfrey and

yarrow have been used to soothe, cleanse, and regenerate skin. Yarrow is also

an excellent hemostatic that stops bleeding and often heals wounds without

scarring.

Comfrey was so popular in medieval times that it was

believed to restore virginity with only one bath. So, if you want to follow an

herbal tradition you must try at least one

 

comfrey-yarrow bath. It is an excellent treatment for

varicosities and spider veins.

 

 

 

2 quarts water

 

2 cups each comfrey and yarrow leaves

 

 

 

In a large pan, simmer water. Add comfrey and yarrow

leaves. Fresh is preferred, but dried also works well. Two ounces of comfrey

root can be substituted for comfrey leaves. Cover and simmer at the lowest heat

for

 

30 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to steep 30 more

minutes. Strain and add to a warm bath or foot-bath. Relax and allow the

ancient echoes of centuries past to float through your memory.
