Teething can be a frustrating time for both you and your baby/toddler, but it doesn’t have to be. You can help your child through the teething stage, in a non invasive and drug-free way with an amber teething necklace or bracelet.

Amber is a resin that has been fossilized from prehistoric pine trees that date back to approximately 50 million years ago. Amber has been used for centuries as a natural remedy to relieve pain in both young children and adults. It has been shown to provide pain relief and remedy the complications that occur during teething. These include pain, lack of appetite, upset stomach, excessive drooling, fever, ear aches and cold. Amber is also a powerful antioxidant and helps to compensate for low energy in the body and in the brain, thus boosting awareness, energy, concentration and reflexes. It also reduces stress.

So how does amber work? When worn against the skin, the warmth of the skin releases healing oils within the resin, which then get absorbed into the bloodstream. It is believed that these oils contain negative organic energy and produce a negative ionization on the skin's surface, which in turn, has a positive effect on the body. These negative ions, draw out the negative energy in the body. For centuries, many Europeans have used amber as an antibiotic to combat infections and anything from stomach aches to arthritic pain. The anti-inflammatory and therapeutic properties of amber have also been greatly recognized by allopathic medicine and some countries such as Switzerland, Austria and Germany have amber teething necklaces available in the local pharmacies.

Many mothers would prefer not to give their babies over-the-counter drugs during teething. These necklaces provide 24 hour pain relief and relief from the associated symptoms from teething, in a non invasive and side effect free way.

These necklaces are genuine, authentic amber teething necklaces from the Baltic region in Lithuania. Please be aware that fakes abound. Authentic amber is from the Baltic region. Size, colors and shapes of stones and length of the necklace vary from necklace to necklace. Typically, the necklaces are 13 inches/33cm in length. Every bead is knotted in between to prevent a choking hazard. If the string got torn and broke, only one bead would come off. Strong silk thread is used and it matches the color of the amber. Every necklace has a twist screw closure for safety. These necklaces can be used from 8 weeks and up, the earlier the better, because younger babies will not even know it is there and will be less likely pull on it or play with it.

*** These necklaces should be worn against your baby's skin under his/her clothing. It is highly recommended that you remove the necklace from baby’s neck when he/she is sleeping and wrap it around her ankle. These necklaces are NOT intended to be bitten or chewed on. Also supervise your baby when he/she is wearing this necklace.

Results vary from baby to baby.
