Pregnancy and Childbirth

The popularity of natural solutions is perhaps particularly heightened when a woman is pregnant and Homeopathy can be a wonderful resource for both mother and baby during and after pregnancy.

By being as healthy as possible during pregnancy you are giving your baby the ideal condition in which to thrive. You will be advised on diet and lifestyle to encourage a healthy pregnancy and birth.

There are many products on the market which offer homeopathic support during this wonderful time and listed below are products from Helios, one of the world’s leading homeopathic pharmacies (www.helios.co.uk). All descriptions of these products are taken directly from the packaging and is printed in the wording of the manufacturer.

Calendula Tincture ~ Healing and soothing to add to the bath or used in a compress to assist healing after childbirth.

Calendula Cream ~ Wonderfully soothing for dry skin, nappy rash and minor cuts.

Hypericum/Calendula Cream ~ Known for its antiseptic and pain relieving qualities traditionally used for cuts, grazes, bites and stings.

Arnica Cream ~ As essential item for the first aid cabinet for bumps and bruises.

Another huge supplier of Homeopathic remedies is Nelsons Homeopathic Pharmacy (www.nelsonnaturalworld.com). They provide on eof the very popular products called ‘Teetha’ supplied by the large retail stores ‘Boots’ and ‘Holland & Barrett’ and many more. Nelsons have this to say about their product, ‘teetha’;

“If you are experiencing sleepless nights and a drooling baby let us introduct you to Nelsons Teetha teething granules, a homeopathic medicine for the relief of the symptoms of teething”.

Homeopathic products are extremely popular in the United Kingdom and there are many many products on the shelves of the big retail stores and smaller pharmacys that “in my opinion” support this.
