Hyperici oil (St. John's Wort Oil)

Hyperici oil is a herbal remedy and a great massage oil, if you have back pain or just like to enjoj a good massage. For back pain try to massage your back with hyperici oil, for a few days if necessary.  If you have a more serious problem with your back, where massage isn't recommended, hyperici oil can be applied on the back without massage.
It is good for all the muscles and bones, and can be applied anywhere on the body externally.

Hyperici oil is recommended for wounds, bruises, rough skin, sun burns, gland problems, rheumatism, lumbago, inflammations and to relieve pain. Also helps with other internal problems, always applied externally.

It is made from St.John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum) flowers and olive oil (extra virgin), put in a closed jar and left in the sun for few weeks (2-3), until it becomes red. Then strained and kept in a glass bottle (dark), can last up to 2 years.
This way you get more oil cheaper, but it also can be bought in drugstores, other stores with such remedies.

Olive oil by itself is good for skin and lubrication (things and body), in combination with St.John's Wort they make a very good oil.

For pain and inflammations this oil can be applied where necessary and put a leaf of cabbage on it. Heat the leaf before puting. Wrap with something (bandage, shawl) and keep it warm. After a while check the leaf, if it's dried (burned) replace it if necessary.
