This 100% naturally derived, Midwife-developed soak is made with premium Epsom salts, which instantly disperse in warm bath water, blended with essential oils of tea tree and calendula, for their anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties, and of bergamot, which aids relaxation. It also contains added arnica to help bruising and swelling.

Bergamot is mood boosting with mildly sedating effects, helping you relax and feel like you again.

Relief for perineal soreness, bruising and swelling after childbirth

Relief for perineal soreness, bruising and swelling after childbirth

Chances are you’ll be sore after childbirth because of stretching, bruising and swelling, even if you don’t sustain a tear or episiotomy. It can also be used to help relieve soreness after a caesarean section (after the dressing is removed and the wound is undergoing the normal healing process). This midwife-developed bath soak is ideal for that first bath, and to use as a soak for the first few weeks after childbirth, to help aid recovery. It contains premium Epsom salts to relax tired muscles, tea tree and calendula for their anti-inflammatory properties, bergamot to soothe and relax and arnica to help reduce bruising.
