Yarrow
Wound Healer
Benefits:
Yarrow (Achillea millefolium) is a time-honored herbal remedy known for its remarkable wound-healing, anti-inflammatory, and anti-hemorrhagic properties. Revered for centuries and validated by modern studies, Yarrow is a trusted ally for everything from cuts and scrapes to postpartum recovery. Specifically, an NIH study done in 2018 indicated that it can be used to increase healing times at episiotomy and c-section incision sites. Its astringent nature helps slow bleeding, while its antimicrobial compounds support tissue repair. Yarrow also has antispasmodic and fever-reducing qualities, making it useful for digestive upset and seasonal illness. This is a multi-useful staple for any home apothecary or birth kit.
How It Works:
Wound & Skin Support: Yarrow promotes tissue regeneration and helps prevent infection. It can be applied topically (diluted) for cuts and scrapes or even bleeding gums. A natural alternative to over-the-counter antiseptics.
Anti-Hemorrhagic Action: Used postpartum for its ability to tone tissues and reduce excessive bleeding. Included in our postpartum v-steam formula for this reason.
Digestive Support: As an antispasmodic, Yarrow helps soothe cramping and relieve discomfort associated with irritable bowel or menstrual tension.
Fever & Flu Relief: Yarrow can stimulate gentle perspiration to help reduce fever, and its ability to move and dry fluids makes it helpful for clearing mucus during viral illness.
Rebecca's Tips:
I always have a bottle of Yarrow tincture on hand in my medicine cabinet to act as a natural neosporin. It helps to disinfect wounds- you can dilute it in some water to wash cuts and scrapes. It helps stop bleeding when nicked by a razor (or you picked a pimple and it’s bleeding)- put the tincture directly on a Q-tip and apply pressure. I’ve used a yarrow tincture soaked Q-tip as well for bleeding gums when my kids have had orthodontic procedures or lost teeth.
