Clary Sage (Salvia Sclaria)
Clary Sage essential oil is soothing & euphoric. It is a good ‘speeder upper’ during labour, promoting regular contractions and helping with breathing.
Clary Sage is an analgesic (helps with pain) and also offers relief from physical & nervous exhaustion.
Caution – Do not use Clary Sage earlier in pregnancy (before labour) as it can induce contractions and potentially cause miscarriage. Not to be confused with Sage oil which is more toxic and should not be used.
