The human body is a complex organism made up of 78 organs, over a gallon of blood, and genes unique to each person. Most of us know by now that the skin is the largest organ and is susceptible to all manner of ailments. A recent study from the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health found that as many as one in three people suffer from one kind of skin disorder or another. From acne and eczema to psoriasis and skin cancer, most of us have battled a nagging skin problem.
In the modern world where medical care is widely available and there’s a pill for every ill, nobody should be living with chronic illness. Sadly, this is not the case.
If you were to see a doctor for eczema treatment, you would be prescribed a pharmaceutical steroid or antibiotic and told it was your only option for healing. Desperate for relief, you would probably fill the prescription and one of two things would happen.
First, the drug could provide temporary relief. Your eczema would subside and a myriad of side effects like sleeplessness, mood swings, and weight gain would take its place. Then, after a few weeks of recovering from the steroid, your eczema would return and you’d be back to square one.
The second possibility is the drug wouldn’t work at all but you would still have to contend with the side effects of the medication.
Frustrated by the medical system and your doctor’s flippant attitude, you would pull out your hair and wonder if there’s anything you can do about your itchy, miserable skin.
We’d like to tell you that there is something you can do. It’s herbal-infused, all-natural, plant-based, and made by someone who has been exactly where you are.
Meet Ora from Ora’s Amazing Herbal. She’s here to help.
Ora’s Amazing Herbal: A Brand that Didn’t Begin as a Business
In 2010 Ora made an herbal salve for her daughters’ eczema and discovered her passion: making trustworthy herbal-infused skincare for the whole family. Her journey didn’t start in 2010, however.
It all began in 1991 when Ora was sick with Crohn’s disease, needed steroids, and felt very frustrated by her lack of options. She was 18 years old and wanted to feel good, healthy, and symptom-free naturally.
After a stay in the hospital where she received treatment for her condition, Ora still didn’t feel strong or energetic like an 18-year-old should. She told her doctor that she just didn’t feel well and he looked at her the way one looks at a stubborn toddler. “Well, you may just have to get used to it,” he said.
Like many conventional doctors, he thought Ora needed to accept sub-optimal health as her new life-long reality. He even told her that her diet played no part in her condition and not to bother making lifestyle changes.
This experience guided Ora toward taking a more proactive role in her health. She soon discovered the healing that holistic medicine and lifestyle have to offer.
19 Years Later: Same Problem, Different Victim
Fast forward almost 20 years. Ora was a stay-at-home mom with degrees in biology and nutrition and four children eight years old and under. All was well until her youngest developed eczema; the kind of eczema that makes the child miserable all day and keeps the whole family awake all night.
Ora took her baby girl for a rare trip to the pediatrician and was immediately prescribed steroids and antibiotics. It was the same story of her own chronic illness with no end in sight.
She contacted several naturopaths from her graduate school, Bastyr University, and they each had the same recommendations. Eliminate dairy and make an herbal salve!
Under their ongoing consultations, she did some research of her own and developed her first salve. Even though she already knew that herbs work, she was amazed at how effective they were in soothing her daughter’s itchy, inflamed, and miserable skin!
Ora never had to fill those prescriptions for her daughter. Through this health crisis, Ora’s Amazing Herbal was born. Now she has the pleasure of extending healing to families in the way she wanted for herself way back in 1991.
Trustworthy Skincare
Ora’s Amazing Herbal products work because they use formulas that have stood the test of time. These are recipes that have been passed down from generation to generation by herbalists, midwives, and grandmothers. They’re even backed by science, so you can trust the quality and efficacy of every product.
They are slowly but surely adding more products to Ora’s Herbal line, but only after researching, testing (on humans only), and making sure the products stand up to their standards of efficacy and purity.
The artisans at Ora’s Amazing Herbal pride themselves on customer service just as much as they do their product quality, effectiveness, and purity, because they wouldn’t give something to your family that they wouldn’t use on their own. Our health is that important.
The Product that Started it all: Touchy Skin Salve
Touchy Skin Salve is the first product Ora made for her daughter’s eczema in 2010. It worked for her, and it could work for you too.
We love this all-natural skin-salve for eczema and sensitive skin. It is carefully made with powerful yet gentle ingredients like organic calendula, thyme, and castor oil to treat persistent eczema.
The Touchy Skin Salve is fragrance-free, plant-based, herbal-infused, paraben-free, gluten-free, and plastic-free. It’s also an anhydrous product, meaning it contains no water and requires no synthetic preservatives.
We love this herbal salve for eczema, dry patches, itchy skin, simple moisturizing, soothing minor burns or boo-boos, diaper rash, cleaning shmutsy baby folds, false eyelash removal, makeup removal, and more. This is the only herbal-infused salve you’ll ever need to treat your eczema.
Healing Ingredients in Touchy Skin Salve
Calendula: Calendula is an herb that helps wounds heal faster by increasing blood flow and oxygen to the affected area. Say goodbye to eczema and contact dermatitis!
Comfrey: Comfrey roots and leaves contain allantoin, a substance that helps new skin cells grow, along with other properties that reduce inflammation.
Licorice root: This healing herb contains powerful anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties that soothe irritated skin.
Coconut oil: In addition to retaining moisture, coconut oil aids in wound care and reduces inflammation.
Newborn Salve
We all take extra care with our newborn babies. Their skin is untouched by harsh chemicals and pollution, but still in need of a little TLC, especially when eczema and diaper rash strike. Baby eczema and diaper rash don’t go away on their own and respond beautifully to herbal salves.
Although coconut oil is a dream ingredient for most, some children’s skin doesn’t tolerate it, so Ora’s Amazing Herbal launched their six ingredients Newborn Salve which quickly became a huge hit. It’s as effective as the Touchy Skin Salve but has only two herbs (calendula and licorice root) and is gentle enough for children with coconut oil sensitivities.
With only six all-natural ingredients, the pure and gentle Newborn Salve is perfect for baby eczema, cradle cap, baby acne, and natural diaper care. The Newborn Salve is also fragrance-free, plant-based, herbal-infused, paraben-free, gluten-free, and plastic-free.
We’re proud to share that the Newborn Salve is clinically tested on humans only and EWG verified.
What does EWG mean?
The Environmental Working Group (EWG) tracks harmful chemicals and calls out the companies that use them. Their mission is to educate conscientious consumers about which everyday products are safe and which are not.
When you see the EWG seal of approval on a product (like Ora’s Newborn Salve) you can trust that the ingredients are clean and safe for even the most vulnerable members of your family.
Ora’s Amazing Herbal: Prioritizing People above all else
The artisans at Ora’s Amazing Herbal have chosen to grow slowly, prioritizing sustainability, their team’s quality of life, and their product’s integrity over profit, and have been loving every step of the way.
Last year they did over $2 million in sales, but it’s really not about the money. When they see their profits rise, they know they’re reaching families worldwide with the all-natural, herbal remedies Ora wasn’t offered during her health crisis.
They have been increasing in velocity over the past few years and look forward to empowering more mindful humans with intentional skincare choices for themselves and their families.
Start Healing Today
Being let down by the modern medical system is frustrating, unfair and can feel downright lonely. Nobody knows this better than Ora, which is why she took her health into her own hands, for herself and you.
She believes that making a jar of salve is like making a bowl of soup. You can’t make just one. You may as well make a whole pot, and you may as well share it. So that’s what she did.
