Add 20 drops of calendula oil and 10 drops of lavender essential oil to a 2-ounce jar of unscented cream. Apply the cream to the bruise at least twice a day for one week. Also, add this mixture to unscented lotions, salves and massage oils. Calendula and lavender contain anti-inflammatory properties that help heal damaged skin. Calendula is also used for healing open wounds, insect bites and bedsores.

Wet a washcloth with warm water and add 20 to 30 drops of arnica essential oil. Apply the washcloth to the affected area once a day for one to two weeks. Arnica has been used medically for many centuries because of its anti-inflammatory and pain relieving abilities. Arnica is also used to treat sprains, muscle soreness and arthritis. Besides compresses, the oil is used in creams, lotions, ointments and poultices.
