Skin Support • Plant-Based Comfort • Herbal Rituals
If you’ve never met comfrey before, let me introduce you to a plant that’s been called knitbone, boneset, and the healer’s root for over two thousand years.
Comfrey (Symphytum officinale) is a perennial herb with deep roots—literally and historically. Its name comes from the Latin con firma, meaning “to make firm,” and the Greek symphyo, “to grow together.”
Traditionally, comfrey has been used in herbal rituals to support the body’s natural rhythms of renewal.
🏺 A Legacy of Herbal Wisdom
From ancient Greece to medieval monasteries, comfrey was a staple in healing gardens. Dioscorides and Pliny the Elder wrote of its use in herbal preparations. Herbalists crafted sticky pastes and poultices from its roots and leaves, believing it supported the body’s natural ability to recover from everyday strain.
In folk traditions, comfrey was commonly used to:
• Soothe minor bruises and sprains
• Comfort tired joints and muscles
• Support skin exposed to the elements
• Ground herbal salves, compresses, and baths
Its magic lies in allantoin, a compound known to support skin’s natural renewal, and mucilage, which offers gentle moisture and comfort.
