🌿 Ingredients You’ll Need

  • 4 cloves of garlic (finely chopped)
  • 1 sprig of fresh rosemary
  • 100g of olive oil (preferably extra virgin)
  • 1 tablespoon of beeswax
  • A bit of water (for the double boiler method)

🌟 Key Benefits of Each Ingredient

🧄 Garlic – Boosts Circulation Naturally

Garlic is loaded with vitamins and minerals that support blood flow and heart health. It’s especially helpful for tired, heavy legs or early signs of vein issues.
👉 Tip: Chop it finely to release its natural oils.

🌱 Rosemary – Nature’s Anti-Inflammatory

This aromatic herb helps calm swelling and supports blood circulation. It’s long used in traditional medicine for joint pain and varicose vein relief.
👉 Use a fresh sprig for best results.

🐝 Beeswax – Locks in Moisture & Heals

Beeswax creates a natural protective layer over the skin, helping to heal cracks, soothe irritation, and hold the herbal oils in place longer. It also adds the perfect creamy texture.

🫒 Olive Oil – Deep Nourishment for Skin

Rich in antioxidants and healthy fats, olive oil moisturizes, soothes, and carries the healing properties of garlic and rosemary deep into your skin.
👉 Go for high-quality extra virgin olive oil.

🧴 How to Make the Healing Ointment

  1. Prepare a double boiler (place a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water).
  2. Pour in the olive oil, then add the chopped garlic and rosemary.
  3. Simmer gently for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Add beeswax and let it melt completely.
  5. Strain the mixture through a fine cloth into a clean glass jar.
  6. Let it cool, then store in the refrigerator.

💡 This salve will last for several weeks when kept cool and sealed.
