Zephyr’s Garden Healing Salve I Put To The Ultimate Test on Zephyr!

SANTA BARBARA, CA – October 27, 2009 – In early October, Zephyr (the company owners’ horse and inspiration for Zephyr’s Garden all natural equine products) was found in the morning with both hind legs badly scraped. He had cast himself overnight in his outdoor paddock, but fortunately had extracted his legs without any assistance. Only his back legs were affected and they were badly skinned, bloody, and very raw.

Once his legs were cleaned and the injuries were carefully checked over, it was determined a veterinarian was not needed, and a regime of cleaning the wounds, applying Healing Salve I, and wrapping the legs began. Zephyr never showed any indication of lameness, but there was swelling and it was obvious his legs were painful to the touch.

Over the past three weeks the healing of his legs has been carefully documented with photographs that are posted on the Zephyr’s Garden Facebook Page. Each week a new set of photos were taken and strong healing and new hair growth was clearly evident. Though Zephyr’s Garden Healing Salve I has been used for years by horse owners all over the country, the owner of the company and Zephyr had never had such a great need for their own product.

“I have been using my Healing Salve I for years for all cuts and scrapes”, stated Georgette Topakas, owner of Zephyr and Zephyr’s Garden, “but I’ve never encountered such a large injury to any of my horses and I’m thrilled with the performance of this product. His wounds healed quickly, there was no infection or proud flesh, and the hair is growing back brown on this body, black on his legs, and white on his socks! Being my horse and my daughters show horse as well, the quick, solid healing got them back in the ring sooner than anticipated and met my requirements of only using natural products on the horses.”

Healing Salve I is an all natural salve with an herbal and essential oil composition that is anti-infective, anti-bacterial, stimulates strong healing and hair regrowth. In a base of pure Olive Oil and unrefined beeswax, this product proves that herbs can be safely used as powerful healing agents. In addition, the beeswax forms a water and dirt proof “seal” over the wounds. Unedited photos documenting the healing of the injuries at one week intervals are available.
