HyperCal Tincture
A herbal combination of Calendula and Hypericum.
Botanical names: Calendula officinalis + Hypericum perforatum
This amazing tincture is invaluable during and after giving birth for the treatment of perineal tearing, caesarian scars and episiotomies. The tincture can be diluted and dabbed onto the affected area; alternatively, a tablespoonful may be added to a warm, shallow bath.
HyperCal is popular for new mums as a soothing cleansing and healing treatment for torn and sore tissues after childbirth.
Pour HyperCal diluted in warm water onto a pad and apply to the perineal tissues after childbirth, changing the pad regularly.
HyperCal is preserved in alcohol and will sting if used neat so it is usually used in a 1:4 ratio, one part HyperCal to 4 parts cooled boiled water as a healing lotion.
Use 10 drops of tincture in 60ml of cooled boiled water.
Apply after giving birth to soothe and heal perineal tears, caesarean scars and episiotomies.
25ml
