    From ancient times until today, many people have witnessed the healing power of comfrey. Comfrey is a compelling testament to how wonderful nature is and how even the most stubborn ailments can be cured with a little patience. Comfrey’s the Latin name is Symphytum officinale, and the people known as black boneset, knitbone, consound, and slippery-root. It has a long and varied history of use. Because of its healing properties, the people believed that comfrey originated from the Garden of Eden.

    Comfrey (also comphrey) is a common name for plants in the genus Symphytum. Comfrey species are important herbs in organic gardening. It is used as a fertilizer and as an herbal medicine.

    Comfrey (Symphytum officinale L.) is a perennial herb of the family Boraginaceae with a black, turnip-like root and large, hairy broad leaves that bears small bell-shaped flowers of various colours, typically cream or purplish, which may be striped. It is native to Europe, growing in damp, grassy places, and is locally frequent throughout Ireland and Britain on river banks and ditches. 

     

    Accelerates tissue and bone healing

    Comfrey contains carotene, alkaloids, tannins, glycosides, mucus, resins, essential oils, but his most important ingredient is allantoin.  Allantoin is an active natural substance with strong keratolytic properties that stimulates cell growth in bone, connective and subcutaneous tissue. Because of this ingredient comfrey is one of the best medicines for healing internal and external wounds, swellings, cuts, scrapes, bruises, fractures and hemorrhages. It is also used for sprains, dislocations, and muscle and tendon strains. Comfrey wraps are effective against psoriasis, ulcers, varicose veins, carpal syndrome and bone inflammations.

     

    Reduces pain

    Researchers claim that comfrey ointment could help millions of people against back pain. During research, comfrey ointment has reduced pain by 95 percent and its effects started within one hour after application. Comfrey effectively removes other types of pain, and has proven to be great in the form of a gel for pain associated with joint sprains and knee osteoarthritis. It can bring relief even with paralysis caused by spinal cord injuries.

     

    It helps with the deformation of the thumb

    Comfrey is the only known plant that heals and removes bunions - bone deformation of thumb, for which modern medicine has no solutions other than painful surgery. Healing using comfrey ointment and tinctures can last up to a year, but it pays off to be persistent..

    •     psoriasis
    •     ulcers
    •     varicose
    •     thumb deformations
    •     sprains and dislocations

    Preparation of comfrey healing remedies

    Comfrey is used for making tea, wraps, baths, ointments, tinctures and herbal drops. Preparations made of this plant should not be kept in metal containers. 

    Comfrey wraps are highly regarded. All you need is to mix a few teaspoons of dried ground roots of comfrey with enough hot water to make a paste. Rub the paste onto the wrap and adhere to the wound. Change wraps every 2 to 4 hours.

    Comfrey ointment is effective for humans and animals. If you apply it immediately on fresh wounds it prevents blood poisoning, and it makes the deepest wound heal without scarring.
