Traumeel Cream formula is a homeopathic remedy designed to offer a temporary relief of aching, bruising, or sore muscles.
It is produced by a leading company in the herbal remedies industry called Brauer Professional and sold by Golden Glow. Brauer Professional’s beginnings date back to 1929 when Herman Brauer, a German immigrant in Australia began to manufacture and sell homeopathic remedies to local healthcare professionals. Today the company provides natural homeopathic medicine to over 4000 pharmacies and health food stores all over Australia.
Traumeel Cream is addressed to both adults and children. It is a local action product aiming to temporary relief muscle related pain (bruise or soaring), sprains, swelling and strains due to sports activities, pain caused by joint inflammation associated with arthritis or soft tissue trauma.
Homeopathy is an alternative medicine which is based on the concept of “like cures like.” Practitioners claim that a substance that causes the symptoms of a condition in healthy people may be the effective cure for similar symptoms in sick people.
As a homeopathic product Traumeel Cream is based mainly on herbal extracts, tinctures of plants traditionally used to treat muscle and tissue related wounds but also a large diversity of other types of affections (fever, colds, ulcers, headaches, urinary problems, eye injury, etc.).
Traumeel Cream Ingredients
Traumeel Cream contains the following ingredients: Achillea millefolium, Bellis perennis, Calendula, Echinacea angustifolia, Echinacea, Hamamelis virginiana, Matricaria recutita, Aconitum napellus, Arnica Montana, Atropa belladonna, Hepar sulfuris, Hypericum perforatum, Mercurius solubilis Hahnemanni, Symphytum, and Ointment base containing: emulsifying cetylstearyl alcohol, liquid paraffin, soft white paraffin, purified water, and alcohol.
Product Features
Traumeel Cream is an herbal based remedy. Achillea millefolium is a perennial plant with claimed benefits as a tonic, stimulant, astringent and diaphoretic. It is also known as a healing herb in healing cuts, abrasions and wounds. Side effects are rare. Prolonged use may increase the risk of photosensitivity of the skin.
Bellis Perennis is mainly used to relief muscle soreness and is used upon the muscular fibers of the blood vessels, to ease venous congestion caused by mechanical causes, bruises and soreness. The Bellis Perennis is well tolerated by human body if taken In homeopathic doses. However, it may cause some side effects like respiratory allergies or blood clotting. It is advised to be avoided by people with known allergies to the Asteraceae/Compositae family.
Calendula Officinalis is believed to be a very powerful plant with antiseptic properties effective especially in the case of open wounds, ulcers or injuries that heal very hard. Most common side effects reported are skin and eye irritation, allergic reactions- from skin rash to anaphylactic shock and severe reduction in blood glucose.
Traumeel Cream is not an approved or clinically researched formula. The composition is mainly of plant dilutions which are not approved as effective in any of the ailment claims. However these have been used as traditional natural remedies for centuries and their benefits are supported by folk medicine.
The cream is recommended as a local remedy, effective when rubbed into the affected areas in the morning and night. Prolonged use is not recommended for large areas. A visit to your healthcare doctor is also recommended in care of the occurrence of unwanted side-effects.

- Lack of reviews from consumers
- Contradictory opinions about the effectiveness of homeopathic remedies
- Lack od consumer testimonials
Conclusion
Traumeel Cream is a natural anti-inflammatory formula aimed at temporarily relieving muscle pain or any other injury of the joints and muscles (dislocations, contusions, or sprains). The evidence that herbal based supplements are effective in the treatment of different types of conditions is conflicting and many researchers affirm the claims are unfounded. Homeopathic remedies are highly diluted plant based formulas. This is the reason why they are considered by many scientists totally inefficient.
The formula offered by Brauer is marketed as suitable for both children and adults as long as it is used under the recommendations of a healthcare professional and with no reverse side-effects. The active substances may cause some adverse reactions. Due to the lack of an FDA evaluation and reviews from consumers, it is impossible to correctly evaluate the effectiveness of Traumeel.
One of the Amino Acids [Blend] supplements we’ve come to trust the most is HCF Happy, Calm & Focused based on a unique FQ formula [15+ pure & effective associated neuro-nutrients] which research shows the ingredients may support memory, focus, attention, mood, and energy. People are reporting excellent results based on customer reviews we’ve seen and there is no mention of harmful side effects.

Purposes listed for Taumeel mentions Eye Injury and I am checking traumeel out to see if it is recognized as helping heal a difficult to heal corneal scratch as I originally saw stated. Would that need to be traumeel cream or would tablets help? If need to be cream, is that safe to put in an eye with a corneal abrasion?
Hello Carole
Due to the alcohol content, we would not advise you use Traumeel in treating eye injuries as it might trigger irritations or even cause damage to the cornea. We advise you consult a doctor immediately, as eye injuries can easily degenerate into life-long conditions.
