Soothe tired and aching feet
Feet take a great deal of punishment during pregnancy - especially during the third trimester. Due to the weight gained during this period, your center of gravity is altered and this increases the pressure on the knees, ankles and feet. You may also suffer from water retention and find that your ankles and feet swell. Sore and swollen feet often accompany exhaustion and emotional vulnerability.
The Natural Way
Added weight (and re-distribution of that weight) means that the feet have to adjust and adapt as each month passes. There is a lot that can be done to support your feet in the comfort of your own home. Although it seems like common sense, lifting your feet (propped up on pillows) whilst lying down can help to alleviate the pressure. Remember to wiggle your toes, stretch your feet (point and flex) and turn your foot round and round at the ankle to provide some relief. Soaking your feet can work wonders, while wearing supportive hosiery can help prevent veins and tissues taking strain. A good tip is to put on supportive wear while lying down, preventing blood from pooling at the ankles.

Ingredients:
The ingredients in BabyNature products are well-researched and have been specially chosen for their high safety profile during pregnancy and infancy.
100% NATURAL:
Up to 60% of the products we use on our skin are absorbed into our circulatory system. Sodium laurel sulfate (SLS) forms carcinogenic nitrogen compounds when combined with specific ingredients, while parabens and petrochemicals can also cause harm. Our 100% natural cosmetic products are safer, healthier alternatives as they contain absolutely no parabens, sodium laurel sulfate or harmful petrochemicals.
Faithful Feet Massage Oil contains the following carefully selected essential aromatherapy oils in therapeutic dosage:
Litsea cubeba essential oil is derived from the small, pepper-shaped fruits of the May Chang plant and is used mostly for its anti-inflammatory and calming properties. This oil promotes healing and regeneration of skin and has a fresh, clean scent. It also treats fatigue, lethargy and insomnia.
Grapefruit (Citrus paradise) essential oil has a refreshing citrus scent and is wonderful for stimulating the lymphatic system, balancing fluid levels and removing toxins from the system. It is especially useful in treating water retention and swelling. Grapefruit oil also stimulates the central nervous system and addresses stress-related symptoms including headaches and exhaustion.
Ginger essential oil has the ability to clear any type of excess moisture or fluid in the body and is excellent for reducing swelling. It also alleviates pain and soothes aching and cramps. Ginger improves circulation and reduces fatigue.
How do I use Faithful Feet Massage Oil?
DIRECTIONS:
Place the bottle in receptacle of hot (not boiling) water to warm. Pour approximately 5 ml onto hands and massage slowly and gently onto the feet for 5 - 10 minutes.
While you can do the massage yourself, it is even better if someone else (e.g. your partner) massages your feet for you, allowing you to relax, close your eyes and fully benefit from the therapeutic effects of the oils combined with a soothing foot massage. After all - you are the one who is carrying the baby!
How long until I see results?
A foot pampering experience is obtained with each soothing rub and results are enjoyed immediately!
How long will a bottle last?
One bottle of Faithful Feet Massage Oil contains 30ml of pure essential oils. Duration will depend largely on frequency of use. Each recommended single application requires 5ml.

FAQ’s
Q: Why do feet swell during pregnancy?
A:
During pregnancy extra fluid is retained and can cause swelling of the tissues or “edema”. Edema is usually most pronounced in the legs and feet as fluid tends to pools in these areas. Your growing baby and uterus put pressure on the vessels that drain blood and fluid from your legs, slowing circulation and leading to tissue edema in the legs and feet.
Q: I have heard that some essential oils should not be used during pregnancy. How safe are the essential oils in your Faithful Feet products?
A:
You can rest assured that all of the essential oils used in our FaithfulFeet Oil and FootSoak Concentrate are completely safe to use during pregnancy and will have only positive effects on the expecting-mum and unborn baby.
What else can help?
There are a number of other things that can be done to reduce pain and swelling of the feet during pregnancy. Here are some of the best, time-tested measures:
Sleep on your left side to prevent the uterus putting pressure on the heart and major blood vessels.
Keep your feet and legs raised as much as possible.
When seated, move your feet around by wiggling your toes, pointing and flexing the feet and rotating the ankles. This will keep the circulation moving.
Avoid salt, drink plenty of water and keep up with gentle exercise as recommended by your health practitioner.
If your face or hands also begin to swell, consult your doctor as this may indicate a more serious condition.
