POSTPARTUM Herbal Bath “Tea”

Four ways to use it!

Option 1 – Fill muslin bag with herbal mixture, tie off tightly and let float in a warm/hot bath (not hot if baby is to be in water too). Empty one salt packet into the water to dissolve. *

Option 2 – Place 1 cup of herbs in 2 quarts of boiling water and remove from heat. Let herbs steep for 15-20 minutes. Strain (discard herbs) and add the “tea” to additional bath water in tub. Empty one salt packet into the water to dissolve. Be Careful the water isn’t too warm/hot if you are bringing baby into tub with you! *

Sit on toilet and squeeze tea onto perineum area. Repeat as often as desired.

Option 4 – Place 1 cup of herbs in 2 quarts of boiling water and remove from heat. Let herbs steep for 15-20 minutes.
