I don’t know about you, but until recently, I had never heard of Baltic Amber. Did you know there was a difference between Baltic Amber and other amber? I just knew amber was basically fossilized tree sap and makes really pretty jewelry. But recently I found this little Mom and Pop (literally as they started this business after researching and finding ways to help their daughter through very painful teething) business that makes high quality necklaces to alleviate symptoms from multiple health issues. And right now they are having a sale! Twenty five percent off with promo coupon SPRING.
What makes Baltic Amber different from other ambers is that it contains high levels of succinic acid. This is what gives it the health benefit. I saw this, and wondered, how can jewelry benefit your health? Well, by wearing it! Body heat warms the necklace, and it releases natural oils. The succinic acid, which has anti-inflammatory properties, is absorbed and calms the inflammation, which reduces the pain. Your baby, if teething, should have relief within a half hour.
The family that started this company originally had found a Lithuanian family who made the necklace for them, and it worked so well for their daughter, they had other necklaces made for their own health issues….and that family still helps them make necklaces for the company they started!
Baltic countries like Lithuania are known for their high-quality amber. I did not know till I checked out this company, but Baltic amber can also be found in regions such as Asia. Countries like Burma, Columbia, the Dominican Republic, New Zealand, Nigeria, Romania, Russia, and Venezuela. Even in the United States, in Wyoming! I mention this, because it is very important to buy true Baltic amber, and there are a lot of fakes out there, but as you can see, being from Wyoming wouldn’t automatically make it a fake!
Their Necklaces and Bracelets are 100% natural Baltic amber and can be worn by anyone of any age. It works for people who suffer from pain and illnesses!
Some of the health conditions true Baltic Amber can help are:
- ADHD (attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder):
- Allergies:
- Arthritis:
- Asthma:
- Back Aches
- Carpal Tunnel
- Eczema:
- Depression:
- Reflux
- Insomnia
- many more
They even have necklaces for your fur babies (dogs) to prevent fleas! Much more useful than fake rhinestones if you want to bling out your beagle, lol!
Succinite has been used for thousands of years. It has been used in natural medicine for the health benefits and in perfumes and, of course, in Amber Jewelry and ornaments. Succinic Acid is found naturally in our bodies, and per the US FDA, safe as a food additive and supplement.
I also did not know, until researching this product, that amber comes in more than one natural color!! I only knew the gold/yellowish orange color! But these pieces are beautiful just as jewelry, just as they are! Such awesome art, with wonderful colors! When you add in the health benefits? Score!!
Baltic amber acts as a powerful natural antibiotic. I imagine, like with herbs and natural plant compounds, it is harder for pathogens to adapt and develop resistance to it, making it a better choice than commercial pills, in many cases. Those of you that already know me, know I am interested in natural healing options, when appropriate. If you are interested in some of the herbal uses, feel free to check out my page on ginger!
In addition to Baltic Amber, another product this company uses for health benefits in their necklaces and bracelets is Hazelwood.
Instead of releasing healing acid into your body like Baltic Amber does, Hazelwood absorbs excess acidity, so that you get a balanced PH. Hazelwood comes from a Hazelwood tree, as the name implies. This natural substance can therefore help with conditions that arise when your body is too acidic. Things like GERD, gut issues, eczema, acne, headaches, and many more.
When you go to their site, their blog tells how they started this company, and the Greek Myth of how Amber was created, both of which are very interesting!!
