The calendula flower Calendula officinalis is well known for its ability to heal and has therapeutic actions that include anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, antispasmodic, astringent, and emollient. These actions make it an effective choice to use for an infused massage oil and a perfect addition to your holistic first aid kit. Calendula has been used topically for muscle soreness and many types of skin problems. The oil has the ability to soften and smooth the skin and scar tissue and is very well tolerated by those with sensitive skin.
