Cramp Bark shows by its name the richly deserved reputation it has to relax muscular tension and spasms. It has two main areas of use: muscular cramps and ovarian /uterine muscle problems. Cramp Bark will relax the uterus and so relieves painful cramps associated with periods (dysmenorrhea). In a similar ways it may be used to protect from threatened miscarriage. Its astringent action gives it a role in the treatment of excessive blood loss in periods and especially bleeding associated with menopause. It has been employed with benefit in all nervous complaints and debility and used with success in cramps and spasms of all kinds, in convulsions, fits and lockjaw, and also in palpitations, heart disease and rheumatism.
Fluid Extract of Cramp Bark has a reddish brown color and the slight odor and somewhat astringent taste of the bark. Combinations: for the relief of cramps, it may be combined with Prickly Ash and Wild Yam. For uterine and ovarian pains or threatened miscarriage it may be used with Black Haw and Valerian.
