Use these oils to create a wonderful relaxing atmosphere in the labour room

We recommend these two organic essential plant oils as especially helpful during labour.

Lavender Relaxing and soothing. Helpful for pain relief, to reduce nausea and to calm emotions. The antibacterial properties help to purify the air in the labour room. Can be used moderately in late pregnancy.

Clary Sage Known as 'natural gas and air', save this oil for strong labour. Acts as a uterine tonic, has a relaxing and euphoric effect. Clary Sage will encourage your labour and stimulate contractions. DO NOT USE IN PREGNANCY.

Essential oils are very concentrated and powerful. Here is how to use them safely in labour:

• Put a few drops in a little water onto an essential oil burner.

• Make a refreshing aromatherapy compress using a face cloth.
Add 5 or 6 drops of the oil to a bowl of hand hot water, immerse the cloth and wring out.

• Mix 5 or 6 drops in a little base oil such as almond oil and use for massage.

• Add one or two drops to a cold water spray.

• Simply put a few drops in a bowl of hot water.
