The oil of arnica or arnica montana is obtained from a medicinal plant by oily macerate, i.e. by maceration of the flowers in another vegetable oil. It has been known for a long time and is included in many preparations intended to soothe blows, bruises and hematomas.

From the health point of view, Helichrysum, peppermint, wintergreen or noble laurel can be added to the oily macerate of arnica in order to soothe traumas and direct blows, but also to relieve the pains or the muscular tensions.

From a nutritional point of view, it is strictly forbidden to use arnica.
