Soaking in a fragrant warm bath with bath salts can be a lovely and relaxing practice for expecting and new mums. It is however very important during these special times to be careful about the types of salts, herbs and essential oils that you use, as your sensitivity and the foetus’/baby’s is particularly heightened. Zen Maitri has concocted a series of especially designed bath herbs, bath salts and bath & body oil for expecting mums and new mums, only using herbal ingredients that are known to be safe to mum and baby and to help ease a range of common concerns through this wonderful, transformational time. They contain nourishing, soothing, calming and restorative ingredients for the skin, promote relaxation and relieve any aches and pains, and help ease any stress, irritation and sleep difficulties.
The New Mother’s Bath Salts, for example, combines healing herbs such as calendula and yarrow, but also lady’s mantle and uva ursi, which support recovery in the pelvic area and the female reproductive system. These bath salts support the healing process, alleviate pain, help prevent infections, ease inflammation and irritation, and relieve spasms and cramps. They also support healthy circulation and gently tone and strengthen the muscles of the pelvic floor and uterus.
For pregnant women, before childbirth, we have also concocted a blend of Pregnancy Bath Salts containing calming herbs and essential oils of rose geranium, lavender, and Roman chamomile with Himalayan salts. This luxurious and soothing blend alleviates stress and tension, eases any aches and pains, promotes deep relaxation, and nourishes the skin.
