Angelica
Root of Strength, Vitality, and Postpartum Support
Angelica (Angelica archangelica), known as the "Herb of the Angels," is a time-honored remedy celebrated for its deeply restorative and grounding properties. Revered in European herbal medicine since the Middle Ages, it has been a trusted ally for women’s health. Midwives have long used Angelica to support postpartum recovery, promote uterine contractions, and aid in expelling the placenta. Its warming, circulatory, and adaptogenic properties make it invaluable for both postpartum care and overall vitality.
Key Benefits and How It Works:
Postpartum Recovery and Uterine Support:
Uterotonic Properties: Angelica stimulates uterine contractions, encouraging the uterus to contract effectively after childbirth. This action reduces postpartum hemorrhage by assisting the uterus in clamping down on blood vessels at the site where the placenta was attached.
Improves Circulation: By enhancing peripheral blood circulation, Angelica supports efficient blood flow, aiding in recovery and stabilizing the body after childbirth.
Restores Balance: As an adaptogen, Angelica nourishes and strengthens the body, addressing imbalances and restoring vitality to postpartum individuals.
Menstrual Health:
Eases Menstrual Discomfort: Angelica’s antispasmodic properties relax uterine muscles, relieving cramps and reducing tension. It acts as an emmenagogue and encourages shedding of the uterine lining.
Circulatory and Warming Effects: Angelica is especially efficacious when the skin above the reproductive region feels cold to the touch, when someone feels chilled, has cold extremities, and/or when they experience intestinal cramping with menstrual cramps. It aids in treating menstrual cramps that improve following topical heat applications. Angelica warms the womb and reduces blood stagnation in the reproductive organs.
Digestive Support:
Relieves gas, bloating, and digestive discomfort with its carminative properties.
Stimulates appetite and digestive secretions, enhancing healthy digestion and nutrient absorption.
Respiratory Health:
Acts as an expectorant, loosening mucus and clearing congestion.
Its warming, anti-inflammatory effects soothe irritated respiratory passages, making it beneficial for colds, coughs, and seasonal allergies.
Emotional and Energetic Support:
Provides grounding and clarity during times of stress or overwhelm.
Ingredients:
Organic angelica root
Gluten-free vodka
Contraindications:
Avoid using Angelica during pregnancy as its uterotonic effects may induce labor or complications.
Angelica is a potent herb and should be used under the guidance of a knowledgeable herbalist or healthcare provider, particularly in sensitive situations like postpartum recovery.
Rebecca’s Tips: For menstrual cramps, use 1-2 dropper fulls up to 4 times daily but if you have very heavy menstrual bleeding from fibroids or endometriosis, use with caution. Angelica is a trusted ally I carry in my midwifery bag.
