Kawakawa Gold - Healing Salve for Horses & Hounds

Kawakawa Gold is a unique, hand-made 100% natural healing salve, packed with soothing organic medicinal herbs and Active 15+ Manuka Honey, that aids in the topical treatment of minor skin conditions and skin irritations. Treats irritated, dry, flaky, inflamed, yeasty or cracked skin. Can also be used as a Paw Balm for dogs and a salve for horse's skin complaints. Creates a nourishing barrier to block contamination while healing.

Also a natural alternative to toxic chemical flea treatments For dogs. Kawakawa acts as a natural flea repellent. Use our Kawakawa Massage Soap first to kill fleas and strip away bacteria and yeast before applying salve. (Do not use any soaps on open bleeding wounds). 

Our formulation is created over weeks of cold-infusing organic herbs into Omega 3,6 & 9 rich oils. The constituents and healing properties of the plants seep into the cold oils without damaging any of the healing benefits. The oil, in a few weeks, goes from pale to a dark green colour. Cold-infusing by cooling down or freezing the herbs into the oil will ensure that the fragile medicinal properties within the leaves are not lost in the process. The only essential oils used after the herbal infusion and added to the Beeswax base is natural Lavender oil. 

Do not use on skin then place hands back into the product. This can contaminate the balm by introducing bacteria from your hands. Please use gloves or disposable spoon etc. Please consult a vet first if any animal requires stitches, has an infection or requires surgical extraction or internal antibiotics. This salve is not an antibiotic or antiseptic. It is formulated for sensitive healing, cracked  and flaky skin, inflamed skin, bacterial and yeast irritations and barrier protection. Please consult a vet if symptoms persist.
