Arnicare Gel by Boiron Highly Recommended by Whom You Know

Boiron, the world leader in Homeopathic Medicines, offers a vast array of quality products. Founded by twin brothers in the 1930's, the brand has developed a well-deserved following and reputation. Their Arnicare line of pain relievers is one of the brand's most popular offerings. The Arnica Gel we used was great. Having little exposure to homeopathic products, we weren't quite sure what to expect. Arnicare Arnica Gel is to be used to help with neck, back, shoulder and leg pain, as well as stiffness. It also helps with swelling and bruising. Being in the middle of summer, we always find an unsightly bruise that needs cover. Arnicare Arnica Gel went on smoothly and rubbed in quickly. It didn't leave our skin feeling greasy or smelly, like other topical creams. The best part was, we actually saw the appearances of bruises diminishing! We will be turning to Arnicare Arnica Gel in the future for our bruises and muscle pain.

I've always been interested in homeopathic medicine. I am not someone who overmedicates myself when I'm sick. This is because I worry about side effects and other lasting adverse effects. Boiron has created some wonderful and reliable products that I can now use, one in particular being the Arnicare Gel! The Arnicare Gel is perfect for the summer! I am one that tends to get bruised very easily and the summer is the time of the year when I want to show some skin! With Arnicare Gel in my possession, I don't have to worry any longer. I just gently rub the gel into my skin at the area of the unsightly bruise! It works incredibly well and has been such a wonderful product for me this summer!

I just recently started back to work after being on vacation. Since I work with elementary kids, random aches, pains, and bruises arise. I've tried several different cremes to help manage my pain, but they don't work for long. When I got home after my first day, I was already feeling some pain in my legs. I put some of this gel on and could almost immediately feel relief. When I woke up the next morning, my neck and shoulders felt a little stiff. I put some of this gel on before I went to work and didn't need to apply more until lunch. I liked that I felt comfortable enough to put this on before going to work because it had no smell. I know what I'll turn to next time I have stiff or achy muscles. 

Homeopathy has been used for over 200 years to treat all kinds of health conditions, from allergies to colds to stress and beyond. And in the U.S., it's easier than ever to find homeopathic products. Once confined to specialty and health food stores, some homeopathic products can now be found on supermarket and mainstream drugstore shelves. And there is one brand that has become synonymous with consistency, quality, and effectiveness - Boiron. Founded in 1932, Boiron is the world leader in homeopathy - and with good reason: the products really work! One of their most popular lines is their Arnicare pain relief line. I recently tried the Arnica Gel, and was amazed by how quickly and effectively it worked. It can be used to treat muscle pain and stiffness, swelling from injuries, and bruising. The gel feels cool going on, so it's instantly soothing, and I was extremely impressed by how much it relieved the tightness in my shoulder. I also applied it to a few bruises on my leg and was pleasantly surprised when the bruises hurt less and disappeared much more quickly than usual. Going forward, I'll be sure to stock Arnicare Gel in my medicine cabinet at all times (and I'll also carry around a tube in my purse for injuries on the go)! 

Again as a serious athlete playing tennis at a high-level four to five times a week, my body takes a beating. Aching muscles and sore calves tend to be a daily occurrence. Top that off after a major match and the next day I need some tender loving care. Boiron has a wonder homeopathic gel called Arnicare that helps you get back on your feet faster. I love that it has no weird sports scent. It does not grease up my clothing and is safe on all materials. Plus, if you get a bruise, I swear it takes most of the discoloration away. A true miracle. I love that this gel loosens all my muscles up and helps me play my best the next day. So good it might even be a performance enhancer!

Don’t just mask your pain. Relieve it with Arnicare and feel better faster.

Made from a natural active ingredient (Arnica montana, which is Latin for the Mountain daisy), it’s safe to use at the first sign of muscle pain. 

Arnicare® Gel

For Fashion

Arnicare can also help revealing fashions from revealing too much by reducing bruise discoloration. Bruises are always unsightly, and they can ruin that perfect warm weather outfit. Many women feel they are prone to bruises. Twenty-eight percent of women say they bruise easily. 

Gently rub in Arnicare Gel or Arnicare Cream for great summer legs and arms.
For Fitness

No one can afford to be sidelined from sore, stiff or overtaxed muscles that can take up to a week to recover, including performers and athletes with physically demanding jobs. 

That’s why Arnicare can be found on many production sets and used by in-shape stars such as Kyra Sedgwick, Twilight’s bare-chested wolf pack leader Alex Meraz, hunky ex-Parisian fireman Gilles Marini, and MLB player Kenny Lofton, who exclaimed, “That stuff works!” Arnicare helps fitness buffs recover from a grueling workout and get back to what’s important to them.

The trick is to treat pain at the first sign before it gets in the way. Arnicare doesn’t just mask pain, which may indicate a more serious problem. It works naturally with your body to relieve pain so you feel better faster. Its safe, natural active ingredient won’t hinder performance, and it won’t interact with other drugs. There’s no doping effect, and it does not create a dependency. 

Cooling and refreshing, this clear, unscented gel leaves no messy residue for people on-the-go.

For Beauty

Botox. Fillers. Lunchtime lifts. Tummy tucks. Even as cosmetic procedures become more accessible and more publically accepted, they’re still generally kept hush-hush. Patients want to get back to their busy lives with no tell-tale signs, such as bruising or swelling, after having been “beautified.” 

As a cosmetic surgeon with an active practice in two New York City offices, Shirley Madhère, M.D., says the body is expected to respond to trauma on the skin. Fortunately, there are ways to possibly avoid and definitely minimize the duration of bruising and swelling. In endorsing a “whole body” comprehensive approach to surgery and acknowledging beauty from the inside out, Dr. Madhère relies on Arnicare. “Arnicare is a must for anyone who wants to have less downtime after a procedure.”


This non-prescription medicine is now conveniently found in CVS, Rite Aid and Walgreens, as well as health food stores nationwide. The average retail price for a 2.6 oz tube is $9.99. Visit Arnicare.com for more information.
