Did you know that herbs are useful for injuries? While time and rest are usually the go-tos for injury and recovery, we love to use an herbal blend called Complete Tissue Herb to encourage the body’s healing response. We love to use this blend in capsule form and use Complete Tissue salve externally.
We first learned about this blend of herbs through the book, Be Your Own Doctor, by Rachel Weaver. Since then, we have had plenty of opportunities to use it and have loved hearing raving testimonials from our faithful customers as well.
The Complete Tissue herb blend includes herbs such as white oak bark, mullein, black walnut leaf, lobelia, slippery elm, skullcap, wormwood and marshmallow root. These herbs work to support the body’s healing response, discourage muscle spasms, and ease pain sensations.
Allyson’s Experience with Complete Tissue Capsules
Recently we were reminded just how well Complete Tissue capsules work! Allyson was playing with one of the little kids and tried to pick her up for fun. She leaned over to the side to pick her up, and the weight of the kid was too much for her awkwardly positioned back. Lo and behold, she threw out her back! Moving became painful, but it hurt the most to sit down! For two days, she did nothing to help the injury and the pain did not subside one bit.
Thankfully, she thought to take Complete Tissue capsules which we have seen to work wonders for injuries and damaged tissues and muscles. She took about 60 capsules that day (yes, 60!) and followed with more the next day. By the end of the second day, she was feeling almost back to normal, and she knew why! It was the Complete Tissue capsules! For extra help, she diligently applied Comfrey Salve to her back multiple times each day and saw huge improvement with these two herbal strategies.
Complete Tissue Capsules to the Rescue
Another amazing story regards a serious and mysterious injury that Lauren had last year. She developed excruciating pain in her back and chest, and we could not figure out what was wrong. She went to the emergency room, and tests came back normal. She was told that she probably had some kind of temporary inflammatory condition that wasn’t dangerous and was prescribed pain killers. The pain killers did little to ease her intense pain and made things worse by causing her to break out in a full-body rash. She had to stop taking the pain meds for the itchy rash to go away!
At this point, we remembered Complete Tissue capsules, and Lauren started taking them consistently over the next couple of days. The results were impressive! Within hours of stopping the pain meds and starting the Complete Tissue capsules, Lauren’s pain noticeably improved. That was the turning point, and it only got better from there! We surmised that the capsules were helping her body to heal, therefore taking away the pain. We were amazed!
We were told that the technical term for her condition was costochondritis and eventually realized the probable cause of it. During her workouts, Lauren was lifting weights that were too heavy and that she hadn’t had enough time to build up to. We think that is what caused it and are careful to build up to more weight in our resistance training to avoid injury.
Client Testimonial
One faithful client left us this testimonial after diligently applying our Complete Tissue Salve to her painful knee.
“For 10+ years, I have struggled with a thin patella (knee cap) causing me pain and the inability to bend my right knee appropriately. Orthopedists have said that I was not a candidate for surgery, at least not now. I have tried several things through the years to increase my mobility, because my greatest desire was to ride my bike again. I tried the “Complete Tissue Salve” for 4 weeks and noticed improvement. I continued to apply twice a day for several more weeks and now I can ride my bike without discomfort! I don’t know how or why it worked, but God’s ways and His natural salves are beyond my understanding. I highly recommend “Complete Tissue Salve” for any damaged tissue or thin bone/cartilage repair. Just be prayerfully persistent and patient. Thanks Allyson, Hannah and Lauren for sharing this salve.”
Big Hurts and Little Scrapes
While we have seen amazing results for injuries and large problems, Complete Tissue Salve can be used for minor issues as well. One young man told us how he used the salve for any and all of his cuts and scrapes and said that it worked great. Another customer raved about using it for everyday ailments.
How Many Complete Tissue Capsules Are Recommended?
Rachel Weaver, a Master Herbalist and the author of the Be Your Own Doctor books, recommends taking large amounts of the Complete Tissue capsules. The blend of herbs is generally safe and can be taken pretty liberally. It is always a good idea, however, to start small and work up to more. The key is to take the capsules often. We like to take 5-10 capsules at a time, up to several times a day.
Comfrey or No Comfrey?
If you compare the ingredients of the Complete Tissue capsules and Complete Tissue Salve, you will notice that the salve contains comfrey whereas the capsules do not. This is because the safety of comfrey is controversial when taken internally. Our family has no problem taking comfrey internally, but we cannot recommend it to others. Instead, we encourage each individual to do their own research.
Our Advice
This post is meant to educate you and share the amazing experiences we have had and heard from our customers. We do not sell the Complete Tissue capsules but always love to recommend them as an additional help to the use of our salves. Allyson has even given away multiple bottles of the capsules that she has bought because of how much we love them! We have seen the benefits and want those same results for others!
So next time you or your loved one has an injury, sprain, break or the need for support while healing, why not try the Complete Tissue capsules and salve? It just may put you on a quicker road to recovery!
