How to Prepare Herbs to Use Topically

Depending on the plant, the immediacy of the need for healing, and how much of a project you’d like to take on, there are a number of ways to prepare your topical plant healing:

Just use the fresh plant: pick some leaves and rub them on your skin.

Spit poultice: chew up a leaf or two, spit it out, and apply it to the affected area. Great for bug bites, scrapes, scratches, and things that happen out in a field. Warning: this remedy is not always tasty. Actually, it is never tasty.

Poultice: soak the plant in hot water for ten minutes or so, as you would to make a tea. Use 1-2 large handfuls of herbs in 1-2 cups of water. If you’re using fresh leaves, mash or chop them up, mojito style. Let the plant cool, and then apply it to the affected area. Wrap it up with a cloth and perhaps cover that with plastic wrap to contain the messiness. Apply 20 minutes at a time, several times per day. Great for sprains and injuries without broken skin.

Compress: prepare just like a poultice (above). Strain out the plant matter and soak a cloth in the leftover brew. Apply that cloth to a scratch, wound, or sprain. This prevents plant matter from getting lodged in an open wound and is generally less messy. Oil, salve, or cream: more complicated to make yourself, but certainly doable if you’re interested.

Oils, salves, and creams are ready when you need them and less messy to apply than compresses or poultices.
