Clary Sage has been used for centuries predominantly to ease menstrual pains, aid in sleep and relaxation, hormone balancing and more. One popular use is to support the progression of labour when it is safe to do so.

Benefits of Clary sage may include: 

- Reduce the pain of menstrual and contraction pains.
- Aid in sleep allowing you to be more relaxed.
- Have a stimulating effect on the uterus – which is why it is an absolute no-go before 37 weeks and is preferred to use when already in labour with medical support.
- Boost oxytocin levels which causes contractions – this helps to speed up labour if it is slowing down
- Reduce anxiety and aid relaxation whilst in labour
*There is limited medical information available for essential oils and their benefits. 

Directions for use: (More than one way) 

- You can put a few drops in your bath
- Put a few drops on a face washer, tissue or similar and inhale it
- Mix a few drops into a carrier oil and rub it onto your body. When applying to the skin, a carrier oil is a must – a few examples of carrier oils are coconut oil, almond oil, olive oil and sunflower oil (1 drop of Clary Sage to 5mls of carrier oil is recommended)
- Adding a few drops in your diffuser or oil burner. This is a great thing to do when you are at home, full term, and already in labour – if you can diffuse in your birthing suite, we recommend that too. It is best to double-check the policies of where you will be, though; some hospitals have banned Clary Sage in maternity wards due to the effect it can have on other patients or health professionals who are not full-term in their pregnancy. 

 

DISCLAIMER: Clary Sage should only be used after discussing with your medical team as they are able to consider your individual medical situation. Under no circumstances should Clary Sage be used before 37 weeks gestation. Please use caution when handling if ordering before 37 weeks.
