Handcrafted - The Indigenous Peoples of the Sonoran desert taught the making of effective remedies through the combination of specific herbs and emotional intent.  Additionally, waste was never allowed so they made them in small batches.  Today, we honor their teachings by following their traditional methods of making remedies in the same manner, one small batch at a time.

Testimonials

"Holy moly! I wanted to tell you that I recently used your trauma salve to relieve pain from recently acquired tennis elbow. The instant relief was extraordinary! "

Brain Haskins (Trauma Salve)

I used prickly pear for a scorpion sting! I was in pain for almost two weeks. I found an article identifying prickly pear as an old native American remedy. As soon as I applied your juice concentrate the pain eased.  Very effective. I always keep some on hand.

Constance (Prickly Pear Juice Concentrate)

I used that gum rinse today and within a few hours my cut in my mouth is pain free and almost entirely gone. It was such a slow healing process for a while so it's quite a relief.
