Lady Cramp CALMER {Menstral} Salve

{GENERAL COUPONS NOT VALID ON SALVES}

This salve is a MUST HAVE in our home... between me and my 2 daughters, we never leave home without it! For us, Tylenol and Iburpohen (or Midol - or any combination thereof) is just NOT enough. It wasn't until we discovered Raspberry Leaf that we were able to find any true amount of relief. Since then, this salve has single handedly reduced my personal usage of Tylenol during "that time of the month" to ZERO.

Red Raspberry Leaf is the main star of this salve... but when I started researching more and playing with the formula, I found that by combining Raspberry Leaf, Arnica, and Chamomile infused oil with Lavender and Clary Sage Essential Oils - I ended up creating a painfree HOMERUN! This unique combination of herbs and essential oils is an incredibly effective combo for relieving the most stubborn monthly period cramps - and this I speak from personal experience!

HOW TO USE IT: Simply rub on your lower abdomen and lower back to relieve stubborn cramping; repeat as needed. Works best at onset - so keep this salve nearby! If you are a clockwork kind of gal, start using it a few days in advance and you'll notice an even bigger difference in your pain level. If you still prefer popping a pill (but it's still not enough)... just add some salve to your routine to finish the job!

BONUS BENEFIT: By reducing pain, it's pretty likely you'll also feel your mood improve! At least I do!!

A NOTE ABOUT MY SALVES:

My salves are released in small homemade batches after a special (and proprietary) infusion process that took me 6 years to develop! My goal is to move as much of the natural medicinal goodness as I can from the herbs into the oil... and the result is a whole line of salves that have been uniquely currated to be surprisingly effective! In our home, we grab a salve before we EVER pop a pill!

 ABOUT RASPBERRY LEAF: Red Raspberry Leaf is considered a uterine tonic! The leaves are particularly high in B6, magnesium, calcium, iron, and anti-oxidants making them a fighter of all things PMS that specifically target and calm the uterus. 

 ABOUT ARNICA: Thanks to its high concentration of sesquiterpenes, it's an effective analgesic and is anti-inflammatory. It's applied to the skin as a cream, ointment, salve, or tincture and is generally known to soothe muscle aches, relieve osteoarthritis, reduce inflammation, decrease pain, treat burns, and heal minor topical wounds. 

 ABOUT CHAMOMILE: Chamomile is calming and has anti-spasmodic properties, which can relieve the painful cramps associated with the menstrual periods. It also helps modulate the actions of dopamine and serotonin, helping to offset or at least reduce the impact of anxiety, moodiness and depressive symptoms.

  ABOUT LAVENDER: Besides its divine aroma, it's widely know for its anti-microbial properties and has been used for centuries to fight infection. It's full of anti-oxidants which contribute to it's ability to speed the healing of burns, cuts and wounds by accelerating skin re-generation. It's a natural pain reliever and reduces inflammation!

 ABOUT CLARY SAGE: Cooling and calming are the two most sought after benefits of Clary Sage Oil! Add soothing, balancing and relaxing to the list and you've got a perfect blend for a Menstral Salve. Clary Sage is a flowering herb that's native to the Mediterranean Basin and has been historically used to calm nerves and reduce anxiety as well.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

• WHAT IS THE SHELF LIFE? The shelf life of the oil in the salve is 1-2 years. However, to enjoy its medicinal benefits the most, I recommend using within a year.
  
  
• HOW MUCH SALVE SHOULD I USE? In general, consider using a "small glop" the size of a pump or two of lotion and apply over the affected area 2-3x daily as needed (use less if it's a tiny area, of course)! In general, a minor topical skin issue will use much less salve than a joint or muscle issue where you are massaging the salve in. See my website or check your product label for specific application recommendations.
  
  
• ARE SALVES SAFE FOR BABIES & SENSITIVE SKIN? I haven't conducted FDA approved clinical trials, so I can't label my salves as "for sensitive skin" or "baby safe." But, I can tell you MANY of my close friends and family use my salves on themselves and their families OFTEN & REGULARLY with great success and confidence. Just like with ANY new skin care product, there is always a potential for allergies or irritation... so test a small area first before using regularly or on a larger area. If you have KNOWN allergies, take note of the ingredient list provided on each label. And, of course, discontinue use if any kind of reaction or irritation occurs. Salves with menthol crystals, camphor, peppermint and eucalyptus are NOT intended for young children and babies.
  
  
• A NOTE ABOUT CONSISTENCY: Depending on the temperatures where you live, your salve will arrive with a general consistency between a neosporin-type oinment and a slightly firm vaseline. Softness of the salve will vary based on your particular climate and seasonal temperature. Since the salve contains beeswax, avoid leaving in a hot car or in the sun to prevent melting. Your tin will be shrink wrapped to prevent any dripping if it does happen to soften during transit. If melting does occur, simply put it in the refrigerator to return it to its normal consistency.
