Arnica (Arnica montana) has been the standby for healing soft muscle damage for hundreds of years. Native to Europe, it is said in legends that arnica was first discovered when a herder observed the goats clambering to find the arnica plant after falling or slipping and injuring themselves. Since the1500's arnica has been used as the remedy of choice for sprains, bruising and muscle injury as a topical application.
