Postpartum abdominal discomfort is a result of uterine cramping as the uterus shrinks back to normal after the birth, and can be an uncomfortable part of recovery after baby is born.
CLARY SAGE supports and assists the uterus as it tones after delivery. It also promotes increased lactation.
CLARY SAGE is a biennial or perennial herb that grows up to six feet in height. It is known for its calming properties and benefits to the skin. The main chemical component of CLARY SAGE is linalyl acetate, part of the esters group, making it one of the most relaxing, soothing, and balancing essential oils.
In the Middle Ages, the CLARY SAGE plant was frequently used to soothe skin. Inhaling CLARY SAGE promotes feelings of relaxation, allowing for a restful night’s sleep.
