Apple Cider Vinegar has long been used as a natural remedy for all sorts of ailments (just google it!!!). Tom Bowen often recommended it to his clients as a soak to aid cellular healng for use on damaged tissue, bruises and soft tissue injuries.

To use: Soak a wash cloth in apple cider vinegar and wrap the cloth around the injured area (NOTE: If you have sensitive skin, you may wish to dilute the vinegar with water). Next, wrap the cloth with saran wrap to retain the moisture. Leave on for a minimum of four to five hours (or over night if possible).

Epsom Salts work great for soaking bunions and to help with fluid in elbows. (Also for aches and pains or general relaxation, a 20 minute bath with a cup epsom salts is great too!)
