Post-Partum Health

Giving birth is a transformative experience for a woman during which she undergoes dramatic transformations – physically, emotionally and spiritually.   The period of time following birth is known as the “post-partum” period.  During this time, new mothers are integrating the transformations that have occurred during pregnancy and birth and adjusting to their new role as “mother.”  Stresses of new motherhood, sleep deprivation, breastfeeding, and recovery from a strenuous labor are all a part of this integration and healing period.  Herbs and natural supplements help support a woman during this time by restoring tone to her reproductive organs, balancing hormones, alleviating the negative effects of stress, providing energy, improving lactation and breastfeeding, and providing absorbable minerals for much-needed nutrition.
