A salve is a topical application made from herb-infused oil and beeswax. When applied to the skin, it softens, allowing the properties of the oil to be absorbed. Salves can be used for a number of benefits including soothing muscular aches and pains, healing wounds and skin irritations, and relaxation through aromatherapy. Salves have been used by a variety of cultures, across continents for centuries.
