Paracelsus Elixir, June 12, 2007
This review is from: Paracelsus Elixir: The Original Swedish Bitters, 100 Grams. (Health and Beauty)
I love doing woodworking as a hobby. The other day I was planing wood using my 3 horsepower power-planer and due to a brief lack of concentration passed the wood through against the grain. I was guiding the wood in with my thumbs and the machine kicked the wood back hitting my thumbs; one harder than the other. It hit me so hard that the wood itself split and I thought at first that I may had broken my right thumb. Realizing that I could still work I continued on as my thumbs began to swell. By the evening they were both sore, swollen, throbbing, stiff and of course really painful. I could hardly button my shirt or tie my shoe laces.
That evening I poured about half a shot glass full of Paracelsus Elixir into a shot glass and immersed each thumb into it for about an hour. In that time the swelling began to diminish, I had the use of the thumbs back and the pain had diminished by a lot. Although not 100%, the next day I was back at my woodworking. Every night after that I have done this with constant dramatic improvements in mobility and I go to bed with the thumbs wrapped with castor oil soaked bandages that seem to draw out the bruising. It is now day three and I can't believe the relief and mobility in my thumbs. I thought I would not be able to do anything for at least a few weeks.
My family, my extended family and a lot of our friends have used the Paracelsus Elixir for the past 30 years for digestive purposes but never knew it could be so effective for these types of external problems.
Great stuff,
