We've tried homeopathy; specifically Arnica Montana. This remedy is used for bruises and sore muscles. This is safe to use on children with no side effects and can be used safely in repeated doses. This seems to really work well when it is taken at the first sign of achiness, swelling, or heat. The times I tried it when my daughter was already in a miserable flare it did not seem to help much, but the times she asked for it right away, she felt good results within 15-20 mins. I did have to do two doses sometimes before she felt relief, but it was worth it. This works better than Tylenol for my daughter.
as for the essential oils, i have been recently considering it.
