After birth, warmth and stillness can feel deeply restorative—especially when the perineal area feels swollen or tender.

This mineral-rich postpartum sitz bath blends Epsom salt and pink Himalayan salt with botanicals traditionally used in postpartum care to create a soothing sitz bath and recovery soak for gentle comfort after vaginal birth.

Epsom salt helps ease tension and discomfort, while Himalayan pink salt adds a spectrum of naturally occurring minerals that support a more grounding, spa-like soak experience.

Many mothers reach for warm soaking at the end of the day or whenever healing tissue feels sensitive.

Designed for real recovery routines to be used in a sitz bath basin for focused perineal care, in a bathtub for full-body warmth, or steeped in warm water for gentle peri bottle rinsing.

Steep. Soak. Exhale. Gentle support, wherever healing happens.
