Thanks to home remedies, you can naturally relieve many physical ailments without resorting to chemicals that can have side effects. Discover the benefits of these 4 herbal home remedies:
Ginger Scrub
Ginger is a rhizome with anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and phytochemical properties that may help improve skin health. Exfoliation promotes the renewal of the outer layer of skin cells by removing dead cells. However, ginger should be used with caution in small doses and in combination with other natural ingredients. Those with sensitive skin should be cautious as it may cause irritation. The mixture we recommend is suitable for combination and oily skin. In case of acne, burns, scars or any other problems, we recommend consulting a MAPFRE dermatologist and following their recommendations.
- Ingredients: 1 teaspoon (3 g) of grated ginger, 2 tablespoons (30 g) of brown sugar, cup (67 g) of coconut oil.
- Preparation: Grate the ginger root in a bowl, add 2 tablespoons of brown sugar and half a cup of coconut oil (you can also substitute almond oil). Mix everything well until a homogeneous mass is formed. Use this preparation once a week, using gentle circular movements,always avoiding contact with eyes and mucous membranes.
Thermal bags
They are very useful for people who lead a hectic lifestyle or who have a physically demanding job and, as a result, suffer from muscle pain due to tension, overload or muscle damage caused by an accident or incorrect movement. Heat packs are a simple and effective alternative to reduce inflammation, relax muscles and relieve pain. In this way, you can avoid treating the problem with the excessive use of conventional painkillers.
