Herb Pharm St. John's Wort Topical Oil - 4 Ounce

I purchased the small bottle to see if it worked as i had read online that it was good for sciatica. This is the first time i have had sciatica and its the worst pain i have EVER had, and i had an all natural birth! I wasnt sure how to use it so i read a few forums and just found what worked for me. I would rub it from my tail bone all the way down to my toes, only on the back of my leg, three times a day. I would take about 4-5 drops per section and I would rub it in until it felt a little warm. My left foot had gone numb, so i would rub this on the bottom of my foot before going to bed and it helped a lot. Now this didnt take the pain away it simply made it duller somehow. At times the back of my thigh was so sensitive that all i could do was pat it on, but it would calm the pain down a lot. After 10 weeks my sciatica is almost gone, but i still rub it in the same areas at night before bed. The one thing i didnt like was that it didnt have a dropper and since i had to mostly lay on my side it got a little messy. After realizing it was working so well i purchased the bigger bottle, the bigger bottle has a picture of a dropper but one is not included. I ended up using a medicine dropper i already had and that made it a lot easier to use, and i was wasting less product. I have been using this for about a month now and i just wish i would have known about it when it first started as the first two weeks were the worse. During this time my father hurt his elbow and it was really swollen, he also started applying this to the swollen area three times a day and after about a week he was back to normal. I definitely recommend this, now from reading the reviews i know it doesnt work for everyone but i was so desperate for something to work that i tried everything i could find. I would suggest you purchase the smaller bottle to see if it works for you. This was money well spent for me! And since it works so well for so many other things i know it wont go to waste.

I use this as a base with coconut oil for a burn salve, usually mixing it with calendula and sometimes comfrey. Great for sunburns or accidental burns in the kitchen. I recommend this for my patients with shingles and it works great. I have also had a patient with CRPS try it and he notices an improvement in the pain of his feet. I have had some diabetics try it for neuropathy but the results were not as good. Excellent quality and my patients are able to make their own oils and salves much cheaper that prepared products and they can customize the strength to their needs for a fraction of the cost.

This oil soothes like no other. The St John's wort is calming. And if you mix it with a pain cream of some sort and arnica...Well it is BEYOND anything you've ever experienced. Its pricey but worth it

Price is great. Product is high quality.

From chemotherapy, I have really bad peripheral neuropathy in my feet, legs, arms, hands; especially, and my fingertips and toes. While not complete relief, I am getting substantial relief from the pain four several hours when this is rubbed on my areas of pain.
