Why Use Herbs and Salts?

Herbs and salts can have soothing, cleansing and healing effects on swollen, irritated and traumatised skin and tissues. They can help speed up the overall healing time and reduce swelling in your perineum and haemorrhoids to bring immediate comfort. This amazing herbal blend can be brewed for use in a sitz bath, peri bottle, bathtub, or even turned into a refreshing padsicle or soothing compress.

Suggested Use:

Sitz Bath

Directions: Infuse the herbs in a cloth bag in 1l boiling water, steep for 1h. Add to sitzbath, up to the desired level then add the salts. Use warm water for a soothing effect, alternately use cooler water to help reduce swelling. Enjoy 2-3 times daily for 15-20 mins. We recommend a minimum of 7-10 days. Our packets contains 2 doses of herbs and salts that will make 2 litres of infused “tea” to use in your Sitz Bath.

Alternative Use:

Soothing Compress

Use the infused herbal water and pour it onto a postpartum pad and apply to perineum. Make sure the pad is not too hot. Apply a new pad when the old one has been soiled.

Cooling Padsicle

Use the infused herbal water and pour it onto a postpartum pad then place them into the freezer to create a chilled and cooling padsicle. Use on perineum to cool and reduce swelling. Replace the pad with a new one when the old one has heated up.
