Skin Repair Herbal Balm
A soothing herbal balm for minor cuts, grazes, rashes and insect bites. Expertly sought by The Dog Herbalist, this gentle salve, made with calendula, comfrey and chamomile, uses herbs traditionally valued for their soothing properties, to help care for your dog's skin as part of a natural first-aid kit. It is made with human-grade, organic (where available) herbs.
The Wisdom Behind the Blend
Healthy skin is your dog's natural barrier. Our Skin Repair Herbal Balm is designed as a soothing botanical layer. With over 40 years of herbal expertise, we have selected herbs traditionally used by herbalists to soothe the skin and help keep minor grazes clean and comfortable: calendula and chamomile for soothing, and comfrey, a traditional skin herb.
Is This For Your Dog?
This balm is for dogs and puppies with minor, superficial skin irritations, such as small grazes, insect bites and dry or irritated patches. Deep, puncture or bite wounds, burns, bleeding or infected wounds, and anything that isn't healing should always be seen by your vet. Please try to stop your dog licking the area after application.
When to Begin the Protocol
Many owners apply the balm at the first sign of a minor graze or irritation. Gently clean the area first, then apply as directed on the product page.
Why Herbs Matter for Topical Care
Herbalists have long used calendula, chamomile and comfrey to soothe the skin. In a gentle salve, they stay in contact with the skin for longer, providing comfort and moisture.
The Restorative Effects
When using this protocol for minor skin irritations, owners often notice calmer-looking skin, less licking and scratching, and a softer, more comfortable feel to the skin. Please keep an eye on the area and see your vet if it isn't improving.
Herbalist’s Tip: For an "inside-out" approach to skin wellbeing, many owners use this balm alongside our Calm My Skin Herbal Powder. For dogs prone to hot spots, see our Hot Spot Help Homeopathic Drops.
