Complete Bone and Tissue Herbal Mix, Oil, and Salve | For Breaks, Sprains, Bruises, and Muscle Pain

[@karenedwards3082]

This recipe use to be called "Bone Flesh & Cartilage." I am a Master Herbalist and Naturopath (retired) and was a student of Dr. John Christopher many years ago. This recipe was given to him as a divine gift for many of his patients at the time. I still use it regularly. Thanks for demonstrating and offering this to the general public. 😁

[@OpenHandFarm]

Hi Karen, thank you so much forthis information! That is so fascinating. I always wonder where these recipes come from after being handed down from herbalist to herbalist and book to book. Thank you for giving your testimony about it working. You are such a blessing and I’m sure as a Master Herbalist Naturopath you have blessed so many! I’m sure even though you use the word “retired” it is still a part of your life. Blessings on your retirement! 😁🤗 I hope to hear from you again!

[@denisesilvaart]

Hi Karen, do you have a recipe for regrowing gums?

[@OpenHandFarm]

@denisesilvaart in case Karen doesn’t see this. I did see this article online if you want to check it out until she writes back…www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/natural-remedies-for-receding-gums Hope some of these work! 🤗

[@denisesilvaart]

@@OpenHandFarm thank you. I've used most of those suggestions for years without any results. But I believe there has to be something that works because gums are just tissue. And tissue can regrow. I just need to find something that really works.

[@OpenHandFarm]

@denisesilvaart just a thought… What if you pull with complete bone and tissue? If you’re worried about swallowing it, don’t put the comfy in. Although I think that will be very beneficial. Just a thought. 🤷‍♀️

God always got a Ram in the bush. I needed this recipe so much for joint pain relief. May your heart always be filled with joy. Thank you❤😊

[@OpenHandFarm]

Oh my goodness, I love that phrase! I will be using it! I have received so many rams this week! You are one of them. You have blessed me by commenting, thank you so much! May you find relief from pain! Blessings! ❤️🤗

[@btracey]

I envy your apothecary!!! It’s so fabulous, tidy, well organized and best of all full of needful herbs 😊

[@OpenHandFarm]

Awww, thanks so much! I have worked for a while to build it up. I do enjoy being able to “shop” from it now. 😁

[@jesidillon4593]

Recipe is lovely for sure, but you are a gem. Cheers from Buenos Aires.

[@ef5842]

I appreciate your recipe very much. Thank you. Our diets don't get enough without these herbs.

[@OpenHandFarm]

Thanks so much for your comment. I agree! Blessings!

[@iartistdotme]

Thanks for the comprehensive video and info! I know you well enough to know you took a long time to prepare the info, check and double check it and have everything ready. It went smoothly and I actually have no questions. I harvested Usnea Friday morning after the winds settled down and got enough for several batches - including yours! It is like gathering manna and I'm so thankful for it. It is now dried and picked over and will be in.a box to you Monday. Mine is all in jars waiting to get some Vodka to finish and for Pete's sake, just heard we are getting ready for another storm. Wonder how many are behind it? Cedar Key was hit so hard and my family has been down there helping my SIL's Mom whose house was 6 feet under and she just replaced the flooring, walls, cabinets and porches from last year's storm. Mud 2" thick over all the floors and cabinets that didn't float away and over entire yard. Amazing! It gave me so much happiness to collect the Usnea from all the downed branches as I realized there was medicine for health included in the destruction. We did fine, just some branches, electric back last night, and the kids bathed in the pool! They issued mandatory evacuation for us but the storm changed just a bit and the center was just north of us so we stayed put. Just north coast got 20 foot surge and so much destruction. Completely wiped out so many homes and businesses. We were so very lucky not to take the direct hit and my heart goes out to all those who lost so much. Now to restock our cold food and drink supplies. and catch up on my favorite channels. FUN!

[@OpenHandFarm]

Mary, thank you so much for contacting me. I don’t know exactly where you are, but I wondered if you had managed through the storm. That is so thoughtful of you to prepare Usnea for me. I am so excited to get it. I love your comment of how you were able to collect something that would bring medicinal value from such destruction. God is amazing! What a blessing your family is to your son-in-law‘s mom. That must be so devastating along with all the others who have lost so much. Blessings on your home with the storms yet to come. All of you will be in my prayers! Blessings, my sweet friend.

Thank you for sharing all your great knowledge! Where do you buy your herbs? I would love to find a reputable place where I could buy organic bulk herbs..

[@OpenHandFarm]

@cathywenners9131 Hi Cathy, I get most of mine from Amazon from Star West, Frontier, or Anthony’s. I also recently ordered from Mountain Rose. I hope this helps! 😁

Have you ever tried any solomon seal? Amazing stuff that would be a great addition to this.

[@OpenHandFarm]

Oh, I have not. I will have to check into that. Thank you so much for watching and giving me something new to learn about! Blessings! 😁

[@Teresa-dg8yn]

Hello penny, and thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe with us! I so enjoy watching others, and making, herbal concoctions. I have just ordered everything that I need to make this remedy.😊

[@OpenHandFarm]

I am so happy you are going to try this recipe Teresa! I hope it works for you as well as it does for my community that use it. I hope to hear back from you after you make it! Blessings! 😁

[@bushpushersdaughter]

I had to pause the video at gravel root. Never have I ever heard of it before. You may go on to tell us about it, but even if you don't, I have some interesting homework to do!

[@OpenHandFarm]

Oh I know the feeling! There are so many herbs out there that are marvelous and fascinating! Thanks so much for watching and I love the fact that you wanted to learn! I love learning as well! Blessings on your endeavors! 😁

[@noplacelikehome9116]

Where do you purchase your herbs?

[@OpenHandFarm]

Hi! I get most of my herbs from Amazon through Frontier, Anthony’s, or Star West. I have also ordered from Mountain Rose Herbs. I also try to grow what I can. But when I need a large amount that doesn’t always pan out. I have gradually built my apothecary. I know it can be pricey to just start out with so many herbs. I have also bought 1 pound bags with friends and split them. That has helped with the price! I hope you find what you need! 😁 Blessings on your herbal adventure!

[@rebekahaurie6252]

Thanks very much for this recipe! Seems like a really good one ❤

[@OpenHandFarm]

Thank you for watching Rebekah. We have had very good luck with it. I hope you do too! 😁

Thank you ❤

[@OpenHandFarm]

You are so welcome! This one I know about and it works! I hope it can bring you relief with your arthritis. Let me know how it works for you! Blessings! 😁🤗

[@beckywine3407]

Would this be good for my grandson’s “growing pains” in his joints? He’s turning 17.

[@OpenHandFarm]

Oh my goodness Becky, that’s a good question. Please remember that I am not an herbalist or a medical professional. But in my opinion, compared to other uses that people have used it, I think it might help. As with any other salves put on the skin, start with a small spot to make sure there’s no allergic reaction to any of the herbs used. I hope this helps! I know that can be very painful. Blessings on your grandson. 😁

[@rhondapittman5697]

Can you make a tea out of it to drink on a daily basis?

[@OpenHandFarm]

Hi Rhonda, The only problem with that, would be the comfrey. It is recommended that comfrey not be ingested. So if you want to leave that out, I don’t see why not. 😁 of course this is just my opinion and as I stated in my video, I am not a trained herbalist. If I were you, I would research and see if each of those herbs can be used as a tea. Hope this helps! 😁

I’m interested in getting seeds to grow some plants do you have any idea where I get some

[@OpenHandFarm]

I enjoy buying from Baker Creek also known as rare seeds. But if you don’t have a lot of money to spend I would stick to 3-5 basic crops especially if you have not gardened before. You could look on line for seed exchanges or seed libraries near you. Or find a Facebook group that exchanges seeds. Those are usually free or inexpensive. These are just some ideas! I hope it helps! 😁🤗

[@gingerbrimer8486]

Can this be used in a tincture? Great video. Very informative

[@OpenHandFarm]

Hi Ginger! The only thing I would worry about would be the comfrey. If you left it out…for sure! 😁

[@butchncasey]

Thanks for sharing. Any suggestions on herbs to use for cartilage? My dad's on bone to bone, they're talking surgery but not sounding very helpful.

[@OpenHandFarm]

You are so welcome! I had found this website for a friend that had the same problems and recently shared with her. Please remember that I am not a medical professional, and this is something that I found on the web. But it might be a jumping off point for helping your dad. Thank you so much for watching and for your comment. Blessings on finding ways to help ease your dad’s pain. 🤗 www.mobilitypluscolorado.com/blog/increase-cartilage-in-joints-naturally

Thank you so much. Much appreciated 💕 i know that salves can work wonders. Blessings to you.

[@momofpreciouspearls3124]

Hi Mary, I love your channel,Thanks. Just wanted to ask, do I need to worry about the affect of pesticides if the herbs aren’t organic?

[@OpenHandFarm]

Thank you so much for your kind words. I am not a professional, but I would be concerned about using herbs that are not organic. Do I? Sometimes that’s the only way I can get them. So I don’t know if they actually have pesticides on them. But I use them if needed. That’s just the way I roll with it all. I try to do organic if I can and if I can’t find them then I just assume they’ll be fine. Hopefully that’s true. 🤷‍♀️ Thank you for asking such a great question. I hope my answer was sufficient. Thank you so much for commenting and for viewing! You are a blessing! Penny.

[@momofpreciouspearls3124]

Thank you so much l, your advice is so sound. Makes sense.

[@ninacino3229]

How long in the slow cooker? I just made your bone flesh and cartilage. Going to make it into a salve later. Right now i popped oil and herbs in slow cooker. Please give me approximate time! Thank you for wonderful video❤

[@OpenHandFarm]

I’m glad you enjoyed the video! Here is how I do it in crockpot. Not sure if you just put oil and herbs in crockpot, not jars but time would be the same… How to Make Herb-Infused Oil in the Crockpot *Fill a jar about ½ to ¾ full with dried herbs, leaving room for them to expand as they soak. *Pour liquid carrier oil over herbs to cover completely. Leave at least an inch of headspace from the top of the jar. Secure the lid. *Line the bottom of a crock pot with a small dish rag and set the jar(s) on top. Add water to the crock to surround the jars, filling to about the neck of the jar. Leave the lid of the crock-pot OFF (the lid causes condensation moisture to drip in your oil) *Turn the temperature to warm (or the lowest setting available) and bring the water temperature to about 100°F. Allow herbs to gently infuse overnight (or anywhere from 8-24 hours.) *Remove your jar(s) from the warm bath and dry with a dish towel to prevent water from dripping into your oil. *Place a fine mesh strainer lined with cheesecloth or a coffee filter over a clean jar or bowl. Pour oil through the strainer and allow the oil to drip out, gently squeezing the cheesecloth/filter as necessary to extract the oil. Some sediment may still be in the oil. *Strain again if desired. *Pour the herb-infused oil into a clean glass jar and allow to cool completely before sealing it with an airtight lid. Store in a cool dry place. I hope this helps! Blessings on your herbal journey! 😁🤗

I broke my ankle about almost a year ago and found out it was due to osteoporosis. I dont live in the US, and doubt if i would be able to find these herbs. Do you sell some of your salves?

[@OpenHandFarm]

Oh my goodness. I hope you have healed well. Do you have Amazon where you live? That is where I got mine. I do sell the salves but it would probably be better if I sold you some of the mixture to make your own salves. I think you would get more for your money. You could email me at [e-mail]. We can figure it out. 😁

[@cathywenners9131]

Thank you for sharing all your great knowledge! Where do you buy your herbs?

[@OpenHandFarm]

Awww, thanks so much! I have worked for a while to build it up. I do enjoy being able to “shop” from it now. 😁

[@GigiR247]

Where’d you get your herbs? I check Etsy and it’s so expensive for an ounce.

[@OpenHandFarm]

It does take a bit to get the collection that you need. The first time I made it I had friends who had some of the herbs I needed so I didn’t have to buy them all. I also had a friend that had made it before, so I used some of her dry mix to make salve. I get most of mine from Amazon from Star West, Frontier, or Anthony’s. I also recently ordered from Mountain Rose. I hope this helps! 😁
