Do you know what I find heartening, encouraging and validating? Many folks are utilizing homeopathy without even realizing it. Homeopathy is beginning — just beginning — to become ubiquitous in drug stores, and it’s a beautiful thing to see.
Now, I’m not saying drug stores carry the entire line of Boiron’s little tubes. But I bet you’ll be able to find Arnica montana just about anywhere you look.
In fact, not too long ago, my husband and I were walking on the beach when we found a tube of Arnica 200. Before you say, “Well, Joette, it’s probably one of your tubes that you left down there accidentally,” let me tell you, we found this tube nowhere near where we live.
So, I decided to investigate.
As it turns out, everyone is apparently beginning to recognize Arnica montana‘s power. How do I know? Well, a few feet down the beach, we ran into Paul.
Paul Pufferfish, shown here, had misplaced his tube of Arnica and had come up on shore to retrieve it. It seems Paul had bumped his head on the bottom of a boat, and boy, did he have a massive bump on his head from the blunt force trauma.
His seahorse-eopath Shirley had recommended Arnica montana 200 as an acute SOS medicine for Paul’s likely concussion. She knew it would also help him with the pain of the trauma and suggested he utilize it every 15 minutes or so at the onset, tapering off as his symptoms eased and stopping when he felt very much better.
However, because of Paul’s stupor after his head injury, his little fin accidentally dropped the tube of Arnica, and it washed ashore. Unfortunately, Paul Pufferfish does not have a Boiron account, so he couldn’t order more. So, he decided to look onshore.
With a pounding head — darn those boats anyway — he shimmied out of the waves to look for his Arnica. Thank goodness that’s when Perry and I came along.
Recognizing that Paul needed a dose of Arnica right away, I reunited him with his tube and poured out a single dose for him. (Homeopathic medicine tubes are decidedly tricky to handle with only fins. Thanks to our opposable thumbs, we humans have no excuse for not utilizing homeopathy whenever we’re in need!)
Paul threw the little pillules into his mouth and winked at me in a friendly fish thank-you way. He seemed to be a little breathless as a result of being out of the water for so long, so he didn’t stick around. So, I didn’t see how quickly the medicine acted on his head injury. But I have no doubt that within a few doses, he was very much better.
Scroll down and download a free Remedy Card containing information about Arnica for head injuries. Unfortunately, the ink will probably run if you live in the ocean. But if you’re a human, like me, you can keep a recipe box filled with all the free Remedy Cards I offer in various blog posts.
Next time you walk on the beach, you’ll never know what you may find or who you may meet. All I know is that I’m thrilled that homeopathic Arnica montana is becoming so popular in so many circles. It’s become the gateway medicine to a more expanded use of homeopathy!

I am a homeopath with a worldwide practice working with families and individuals via Zoom. I'm also a teacher and most importantly, a mom who raised my now-adult children depending on homeopathy over the last 31 years. I lived decades of my life with food intolerances, allergies, and chemical sensitivities until I was cured with homeopathy, so I understand pain, anxiety, and suffering. You may feel that your issues are more severe or different than anyone else’s, but I have seen it all in my practice and in my work in India. My opinion is that nothing has come close to the reproducible, safe and effective results that my clients, students and I have achieved with homeopathy.
Call today and learn how homeopathy might just be the missing piece in your health strategy.
Joette is not a physician and the relationship between Joette and her clients is not of prescriber and patient, but as educator and client. It is fully the client's choice whether or not to take advantage of the information Joette presents. Homeopathy doesn't "treat" an illness; it addresses the entire person as a matter of wholeness that is an educational process, not a medical one. Joette believes that the advice and diagnosis of a physician is often in order.

I used Arnica gel on my face in the area where I had intense dental work done. There was no pain, bruising, or black and blue. The area where I didn’t apply the gel turned black and blue.
Smart lady.
