MeliHeal All-Purpose Healing Salve is a new product designed to prevent infections, repair damaged tissue, and encourage skin growth.

This product, developed by Cheryl L. Detamore, DVM, promotes healing by encouraging the growth of healthy cells and new tissue, instead of unsightly scar tissue or proud flesh. Using an ancient remedy for treating infected wounds, MeliHeal combines honey, natural lanolin, and a blend of essential oils. The essential oils are noted for increasing circulation to the wound, reducing swelling, and repelling flies.

MeliHeal can be used to treat a variety of wounds including sunburn, allergic reactions, and catastrophic wounds.
