Wahiŋkpe's Pain Salve

Description

Wahiŋkpe (wah – hiŋk – pay) means “arrow” in the Lakota language.

Use: For supporting relief from nerve pain, muscle spasms, and restless leg syndrome. For external use only.

Application: apply small amount on affected area. Wait 30-60 minutes and add another thin layer if necessary.  

Note from Megan: This salve is two years in the making. I began developing this salve when my daughter Arrow (Wahiŋkpe) developed a sudden severe pain in her legs. Since then, it has moved into her left arm as well. After extensive testing, doctors found she has a rare genetic nerve pain disorder, which has no noticeable triggers other than cold temperatures. So, I developed this salve using medicinal plants that have been used for generations by Indigenous peoples, to help Arrow without having to rely solely on pharmaceutical medications.

Salves should be kept in a cool, dry area.  Do not let salves freeze or melt as this will cause the consistency to be off. The product should still work as intended if this happens, but the consistency will make it more difficult to apply.

Helps with leg cramps

I started using the salve because the "use for" included muscle spasms and magnesium was included in the ingredients. Painful night cramps in my legs and feet would wake me at night. Now I rub the salve on my legs and feet before bed and no more night cramps. If I would change anything, I wish this salve was available in the large size!
