Rosemary Arm Compress
Kind of substance
Rosemary Bath Milk
Guiding principle for the application
The processes activated by rosemary have a stimulating and harmonizing effect on the encounter between the soul body and the physical and etheric bodies. This affects the patient’s circulation, especially the arterial peripheral vessels. By deepening the patient’s breathing, they also have a balancing effect on all life processes.
The plant’s bitter substances and tannins also awaken and strengthen the patient's vital forces. Rosemary therefore has a strong, overall incarnating effect.
This compress is always applied on THE side of the body on the arm or leg that is OPPOSITE the site of the pain.
Any cramping of the coronary arteries should be pulled away from the pain site, as if drawing congestion away from the heart area. This results in rapid pain relief.
This compress was originally an idea of Dr.med. Hans Klett, Heidenheim, Germany.
