Body Pain - home made remedy

 

​

Disclaimer:  This is a remedy inherited from our Indian roots.  Try at own risk.

​

For new mum and adults only.  (Can be done by any adult experiencing body aches and pains).

 

We normally do this 9 days after birth.

 

What you need:

​

Eucalyptus leaves with stem ( about 3-4 branches)

Guava leaves with stem (about 3-4 branches)

​

Method:

​

Boil the leaves in a large pot with water (about 10l).  Take water to the bathroom.  Remove leaves and stem and place on the floor of the bath/shower.  The new mum can sit on a stool while placing feet on the leaves.

​

Add cold water to the boiled water (same temperature as when you would normally have a shower).

​

Bathe as normal. Pour this water on her body.   

​

Can be done once a week or when required.
