Our process is that we first look for the certified organic version, but if we can't find organic arnica flowers we will look for wildcrafted arnica (Arnica montana). These are flowers which are found in their natural environment and are often valued for their potentially higher potency. They grow in their natural habitats and adapt to environmental stressors, which may result in more robust medicinal properties.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTry our best selling \u003ca href=\"\/products\/organic-herbal-salve\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eOrganic Herbal Salve\u003c\/a\u003e, a multi-purpose salve you will turn to again and again for so many applications!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease note that this product is not intended for use in the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment or prevention of disease.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Apple Valley Natural Soap","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67827049038054,"sku":"A1057","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0826\/3647\/2550\/files\/arnica-muscle-rub-pain-relief-salve_53e36f59-37aa-4c4f-9e1f-aa2885d2ae2d.png?v=1793086494"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0826\/3647\/2550\/collections\/herbal_salve2__43058.webp?v=1793675054","url":"https:\/\/applevalleynaturalsoap.com\/collections\/salves.oembed","provider":"Apple Valley Natural Soap","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
