Dr. Cole's Protocols For Moms & Babies
As a mom herself, Dr. Cole understood the needs of new mothers. Her aim was to support moms and babies from early pregnancy through potty training and beyond. The products below were created to assist moms in getting through some of the most difficult stages of this process with minimal need for oral medications for either the mother or the baby. These are just some of the issues moms with babies can experience during this time period:
New motherhood should be a wonderful time. Dr. Cole's intention when creating these products was to make life easier for a mother while dealing with any possible situations encountered during pregnancy, birth, and infant care. We will discuss each potential situation below and what can be done about it:
Nausea, Constipation & Pregnancy Piles
Nausea - One of the first symptoms that a mother may encounter when she first gets pregnant is what often is referred to as "morning sickness." This feeling of nausea can happen when a woman wakes up in the morning, or really anytime of day during the first few months of pregnancy. Dr. Cole formulated her Anti-Nausea Formula to assist a mother in dealing with this uncomfortable situation. The Anti-Nausea Formula was created with the exact organic and wildcrafted ingredients that have been used for ages to calm an upset stomach without having to take oral medicine. ~ Directions: massage into the belly button, around the abdominal area, under the nose and behind your ears. ~ 100% Organic & Wildcrafted Ingredients: Beeswax, Olive Oil, Ginger Root, Peppermint, Fennel Seed, Chamomile, Black Horehound, Turkey Rhubarb Root, Meadowsweet, Lemon Balm, Catnip, Iceland Moss, Cinnamon, Gentian Root, Goldenseal Root, Thyme Essential Oil, and Vitamin E.
Constipation - Another situation that can occur during this time is the slowing of bowel movements. This can happen if a young mother is not able to get enough fluids, exercise or good protein into her diet. Taking oral medication for this problem often can cause an upset stomach. Dr. Cole's Constipation Formula remedy is much lighter and easier on the new mother and baby. This balm can be massaged directly over a new baby's lower abdomen to assist the infant in having a bowel movement without disrupting the baby's delicate digestive system. ~ Directions: Apply generously from the belly button down to the lower abdomen, and /or pulse points such as wrists, hands and thighs. Apply generous amounts before bedtime or early morning. For extreme cases apply every 30 minutes until the desired result is achieved. ~ 100% Organic & Wildcrafted Ingredients: Olive Oil, Beeswax, Cascara Sagrada, Senna, Pau d'Arco, Fennel, Rhubard Root, Chickweed, Yellowdock, Red Clover, & Vitamin E.
Pregnancy Piles - With more than 1,000 reviews on Amazon, Dr. Cole's Herbal Hemorrhoid Balm, continues to be one of our best selling products. During pregnancy, small hemorrhoids can form as a result of: (1) straining too much while having bowel movements; (2) sitting for long periods of time; (3) the physical stress and contortions a mother can go through during the birthing process; (4) not staying well hydrated with purified water; (5) not taking in enough high-quality protein; (6) sudden calorie restriction; or, (7) too much stress. ~ Directions: Apply a dime-size amount to the targeted area after having a bowel movement or, for severe cases, apply three to four times per day. If symptoms persist, seek medical attention. ~ 100% Organic & Wildcrafted Ingredients: Beeswax, Olive Oil, Horse Chestnut, Calendula, Witch Hazel, Arnica, Butcher's Broom, Feverfew, Chickweed, Marshmallow Root, Mullein, Uva Ursi, Yarrow, White Willow & Vitamin E.
Products that help relieve Nausea, Constipation & Pregnancy Piles
Anti-Nausea Remedy Reviews:
Unfortunately I had a bad case of morning sickness when I first got pregnant. Eating bits of ginger helped for a while. However, this product was a better solution for me as it worked well and didn't upset my digestive system. ~ Mary Lou B. Atlanta, GA
I first purchased this product for one of my children who has a hard time keeping food down when he gets ill. Now all three of our children use is as do I for indigestion, nausea or any kind of upset stomach problems. Very easy to use and carry around in my bag or a pocket. ~ A. Sanchez - New Mexico
A friend of mine discovered this product while recovering from chemo. I figured if it worked for her, it would work for me during the first stages of pregnancy and it did! ~ Janet Brown - Kansas City, KS
Constipation Remedy Reviews:
In a moment of desperation, I stumbled across this product. I didn’t want to take any harsher meds and decided what the heck. I followed the instructions and eureka some success then the next day jackpot (my new go to). Thank you!~ Mandy C., Tucson, AZ
All I know is this, my baby was backed up. I did one session of belly rub with this ointment, then after about an hour, another rub, I put some in recommended areas like the thighs and wrists too, positioned that little one over the toilet in a reclined position (like they would be in the car seat) and finally the baby got the release she needed. This is the second product of theirs that has delivered on results. I’m so pleased.~ Jane Smith, Seattle, WA
Pregnancy really messed up my digestive system and I found it VERY difficult to have a BM. That is when I remember that Dr. Cole had given me a few products to help with pregnancy and after. I used theConstipation Balm and was finally able to go! What a relief that was!~ Brenda, Olean, NY
Pregnancy Pile Remedy Reviews:
I fought with hemorrhoids during pregnancy bad. To the point where I was crying, bothered, frustrated and so much more. My doctor said that there was nothing she could give me and take over the counter stuff. Nothing seem to work, I even tried holistic ways didn’t work. I stumble upon this from browsing and looked at the reviews so many good ones!! So why not??
When I received this, I immediately put it on, and it was like relief INSTANTLY!!! I was so surprised as nothing work before. This became my best friend the remainder of my pregnancy. It doesn’t have a smell, it is not too oily and on the bright side, it’s supposed to be natural.~ Jessica P, Palm Springs, CA
Have been using this since getting severe hemorrhoids after delivery of my second child. Life saver as all the sprays and things provided by my doctor had no positive effect. Their only recommendation was surgery, and they will eventually come back--stinks to be you. While using this, you will not be disappointed and can get back to living!~ Samantha Miller, Elmsford, New York
This product does not have any toxic ingredients and it doesn't irritate sensitive areas. Tried a couple other balms for this issue and they were problematic. Very good quality no bad smells! ~ Kate C., West Palm Beach, Florida
4. Stretch Marks - As your baby grows, the skin around your stomach stretches, causing stretch marks. If massaged with a high-quality moisturizer, those stretch marks can easily disappear after the baby is born. One of the best products for this is Dr. Cole's Gourmet Body Butter. This product comes with different choices of unscented or scented moisturizers, depending on the mother's preference. ~ Directions: Massage over stretch marks and all dry skin areas. For best results, massage into skin after bathing. ~ 100% Organic & Wildcrafted Ingredients: Water, Cocoa Butter, Shea Butter, Coconut Oil, Apricot Oil, Almond Oil, Vegetable Glycerin, Vegetable Emulsifying Wax, Avocado Oil, Jojoba Oil, Rice Bran Oil, Radish Root, Ferment Filtrate, Silk Protein, and Vitamin E.
5. Dry Skin - Dry skin is a condition that many people suffer from, including your precious baby. One reason that babies are more likely to suffer from dry skin is because their first layer of skin is 30% thinner than adult skin. A very gentle moisturizer to use is Dr. Cole's Gourmet Body Butter. ~ Directions: Massage into dry skin areas often. For best results use this product after bathing. ~ 100% Organic & Wildcrafted Ingredients: Water, Cocoa Butter, Shea Butter, Coconut Oil, Apricot Oil, Almond Oil, Vegetable Glycerin, Vegetable Emulsifying Wax, Avocado Oil, Jojoba Oil, Rice Bran Oil, Radish Root, Ferment Filtrate, Silk Protein, and Vitamin E.
6. Skin Rash & Pimples - Babies are very susceptible to rashes. Rashes may be caused from drool, environmental conditions, and the extra sensitivity of newborn skin. Dr. Cole's Skin Repair Formula Balm and Cream are excellent products to help with all infant skin care issues. The ingredients were carefully selected so that even the youngest in the family can find relief from a rash. ~ Directions for baby rash: Start by using Dr. Cole's Skin Repair Cream as it is light and is easily absorbed into the baby's delicate skin. This should be all that is needed. However, if this doesn't clear up the rash, use the Skin Repair Balm as it is the more potent of the two. ~ 100% Organic & Wildcrafted Ingredients: Olive Oil, Coconut Oil Infused with Echinacea, Beeswax, Chaparral, Lemon Balm, Peppermint, Eucalyptus, Calendula Flower, Astragalus Root, Marshmallow Root, Oat Straw; Aloe Vera Gel, E-Wax, Coconut Oil, Vegetable Glycerin, Shea Butter, Radish Root Ferment, Neem Oil, Essential Oil Blend, Silk Protein, and Vitamin E.
Mother's & babies can have an unusual break out of pimples now and then. This is often a result of the natural process of the body detoxing itself. Dr. Cole's Extraction Balm was formulated to do exactly, that – help the body extract toxins from the skin. Blood Root is the magical ingredient that was used to formulate this product. It does an excellent job of extracting almost anything from the skin including: puss from pimples, venom from insect bites, or even hard to get to wooden splinters, that get lodged under the skin. ~ Directions for pimples: Apply directly to targeted skin problem spots after thoroughly washing the infected area of the skin. ~ 100% Organic & Wildcrafted Ingredients: Beeswax, Olive Oil, Blood Root, Goldenseal, Echinacea, Chaparral, Burdock Root, Cats Claw, Pau d'Arco, Peppermint, Red Clover, Plantain, Black Walnut, Wormwood, Cloves, Tea Tree Oil, and Vitamin E.
7. Diaper Rashes - Diaper rashes are very common and uncomfortable for your little one. They are caused by the excess wetness that is trapped against your babies body. Fortunately, Dr. Cole had five daughters, and she was very familiar with diaper rashes. She hated seeing anyone in discomfort. Her Skin Repair Formula, in the balm form was her solution to repairing this delicate condition quickly, with just one application. Severe rashes my require more than one application. ~ Directions: Thoroughly wash and then dry area on and around the diaper rash. Then apply the Skin Repair Balm to that area. Repeat the process every time you change the baby until the rash is gone. ~ 100% Organic & Wildcrafted Ingredients: Olive Oil, Coconut Oil, Beeswax, Echinacea, Chaparral, Lemon Balm, Peppermint, Eucalyptus, Calendula, Astragalus Root, Marshmallow Root, Oat Straw, Aloe Vera Gel, Neem Oil, Essential Oil Blend, Vitamin E.
Stretch Marks Remedy Reviews:
My mom sent me a jar of Dr. Cole’s Gourmet Body Butter when I first got pregnant. Have been addicted to this cream ever since. It I used it throughout my pregnancy and after. This product is such a pleasure to apply and it really did help to make my stretch marks disappear. ~ Lisa G. , Williamsport, PA
This is a great all season moisturizer. I use it as a face cream as well as to moisturize my body after a shower. Worked wonders on my stretch marks during my last pregnancy too. ~ Susan P., Toronto, Canada
I have tried many different kinds of expensive and inexpensive moisturizers. Most are usually too greasy or leave some sort of film on my skin, or smell like cheap perfume. Once I tried the body butter from Dr. Cole’s, I stopped looking around. I have been using it for many years now. Great all around cream for the whole family. Does a good job of getting rid of stretch marks or wrinkles. ~ Janet Somers, New York City, NY
Dry Skin Remedy Reviews:
My dry skin has left me itchy and I keep scratching. I used some Unscented Body Butter and the itchy, dry skin was gone within one day.~ Justin, Wildwood, FL
My little one has dry patches of skin on her elbows. We used some of Dr. Cole's Gourmet Body Butter and her dry skin is gone! Thank you for making something that even little children can safely use! ~ Charlotte D.,St. Paul Park. MN
As a woman who lives in Minnesota, the winter months do a number on my skin! I find myself with scratches from having such dry, itchy skin. Within a day after using the body butter, my dry skin was gone! It is also the perfect treat for my feet at night! It leaves them so soft!~ Brenda D., St. Paul Park, MN
Skin Rash Remedy Reviews:
I had a series of skin issues starting with a burning rash on the collar areas of neck. Followed closely by a bee sting (allergic) and then shingles. From the start Extraction balm was the only thing that calmed the burn
My son had an allergic rash and I used the Extraction Balm to get rid of it. It started working almost immediately. ~ Phalon B., West Virginia
My little one kept getting a red rash on her face. We used the Skin Repair Cream on her face and the redness started going away the same day. ~ Susan, Summerfield, FL
Diaper Rash Remedy Reviews:
Newborn babies tend to get diaper rash no matter what. I found that one of the best products to heal tender baby butt skin has been Dr. Cole’s Skin Repair Cream. It was gentle enough to heal the rash without causing more irritation. I could see the results within a few hours. It also works well on chapped hands or for any sort of dry skin. I like to use it as a face cream as well.~ Anna Blackwell, Springfield, IL
Dr. Cole used to make a balm product that she called SOS because it it exactly what was needed for any kind of emergency skin issues. We used to keep in our medicine cabinet at all times. We were lost when her first company closed it’s doors, only to find that the brand had been purchased and renamed “Dr. Cole’s Herbal Remedies”. So happy to find this product available again. It has been helping to get rid of my baby’s diaper rash. ~ V.M.P., Phoenix, AZ
My two favorite products from the Dr. Cole’s Herbal Remedies Brand is the Skin Repair Cream and the Skin Repair Balm. The balm is stronger and more intense than the cream and works great for burns, rashes or anything that causes skin to itch. Once skin has been healed, the cream will keep it moist and dis-infected with daily use. Great for chapped hands, dry skin, or wind burn. The cream is gentle enough to use on newborns. The healing herbs in it smell so good! Highly recommend both of these products. ~ A Mom of Five, Augusta, GA
8. Mood Swings - Your body experiences an enormous amount of stress during the birthing process. Many physical, hormonal, and emotional changes happen throughout pregnancy and in the weeks and months after your baby is born. When you combine this with less sleep and worrying about your baby, more mood swings are likely to occur. Dr. Cole's Vitality Boost Balm and Stress Relief Balm are infused with mood enhancing herbs to help you feel balanced and ready for your day! The Vitality Boost Formula can be used to replace too much reliance on caffeine, or to overcome an afternoon energy crash. The Stress Relief Balm has been infused with the Kava Kava herb that has long been known to naturally calm down anxiety and stress. ~ Directions: Use the Vitality Boost Formula to enhance energy levels when needed. ~ 100% Organic & Wildcrafted Ingredients: Beeswax, Olive Oil, Ashwagandha Root, Dandelion Root, Burdock Root, Butcher’s Broom, Chickweed, Cleavers, Corn Silk, Fennel Seed, Green Tea, Kelp, Nettles, Raspberry Leaf, Red Clover, Rose Hips, St. John’s Wort, Essential Oils of Lavender, Pine, and Rosemary; Vitamin E. Use the Stress Relief Balm to relax from stress or anxiety. Apply either of these products to your temples, wrists, the back of your knees, the back of your neck, or anywhere on the body where you can see blue veins. ~ 100% Organic & Wildcrafted Ingredients: Beeswax, Olive Oil, Skullcap, St. John’s Wart, Kava Kava, Passion flower, Lemon Balm, Lavender, Chamomile, Hops, California poppy, Vitamin E and a Blend of Essential Oils.
9. Stress - With a baby, you sometimes feel as though life is completely out of control because you cannot plan for what and when things are going to happen. This can make you feel very tense and frustrated when combined with other everyday stressors. Dr. Cole formulated her Stress Relief Formula Line to help new mothers find some relief when needed. The product line includes Stress Relief Herbal Balm, Stress Relief Cream, and Stress Relied Soaking Salts. New infants need the stability of having a calm mother. These products can assist moms in being that stable person for their baby. ~ Directions: The Stress Balm is the most potent. Massage into all blue vein areas when needed. Use the cream as you would any other cream. Great to rub on your hands when they are dry or on your feet right before going to bed. Excellent cream to have your massage therapist use when giving you a therapeutic massage. Soaking in a hot tub at the end of the day, with the stress salts mixed in is likely to give you a very peaceful sleep. ~ 100% Organic & Wildcrafted Ingredients: Beeswax, Olive Oil, Skullcap, St. John’s Wart, Kava Kava, Passion flower, Lemon Balm, Lavender, Chamomile, Hops, California poppy, Vitamin E and a Blend of Essential Oils.
Mood Swing Remedy Reviews:
It is amazing how crazy a woman’s moods can get after giving birth! These three products together somehow calmed me down. One of the active ingredients is the Kava Kava herb. That mixed with lavender, chamomile and other wonderful ingredients really did the trick to somehow calm me down. Let me tell you, there is nothing like taking a nice hot bath in Dr. Cole’s Stress Relief Salts. Put me right to sleep! The balm was great to rub on my chest when I would start to feel depression coming on. I used the cream as a moisturize and to rub on my feet at night to help me sleep better. ~ Sally Benson, New Mexico
Getting your sleep cut into small time frames after birth can be so annoying. I was tired all of the time. I found this little remedy to be surprisingly helpful and much healthier for me than trying to stay awake drinking coffee all day. Follow the instructions and massage into any areas where blue veins are showing so it can get directly into your circulatory system for a quick pick up. It really works! ~ Mary Lou A., Columbus, OH
A friend of mine used to be a patient of Dr. Cole’s years ago when these products had different names. She gave them to me when I was trying to ween myself off of the anti-depressants that my doctor put me on after I gave birth to my second child. While the anti-depressants did manage my moods, they also made me feel unresponsive to the life around me. Same no-emotional reaction to everything. Almost a dead like feeling about anything. It took a good year to get off of them. Dr. Cole’s Balms helped me make the transition. They allowed me to feel emotions while also giving me energy when needed without getting wired out on caffeine. They calmed me down when I started to get upset or stressed out about something. Between that, meditation, massage and learning to control my environment better my moods have become more manageable. ~ Patty M., Kansas City, KS
10. Muscle Pain - Many women wonder why they are experiencing pain as new mothers. The body goes through a lot of physical strain before birth, during the birthing process, and even after you have your baby. As a breastfeeder or bottle feeder, you are positioning yourself and your baby in a new way. You are bending more to breastfeed or bathe your infant. Muscles can get strained while constantly lifting and carrying an active baby. This all can take a significant toll on muscles. Massaging Dr. Cole's Muscle Ease Balm or soaking in Dr. Cole's Muscle Ease Salts can ease sore muscles that can come from the active life of caring for a baby. ~ Directions: Massage the Dr. Cole's Muscle Balm deeply into sore muscles or have your massage therapist do this for you. Note that this may cause drowsiness. Soaking in a hot tub with Dr. Cole's Muscle Ease Salts also will cause muscles to relax. Best to use both of these products at the end of the day, close to bedtime. ~ 100% Organic & Wildcrafted Ingredients: Beeswax, Olive Oil, White Willow, Fever Few, Green Tea, Yerba Mate, Calendula, Arnica, Kava, Passion Flower, Valerian, Hops, Lemon Balm, Lavender Flowers, Hemp Oil, Beeswax, Vitamin E, Menthol Crystals, Camphor, and a blend of Essential Oils.
Muscle Pain Remedy Reviews:
I’ve frequented the gym lately again, so I’ve been working out a lot. I did the back, lower body and chest exercise so my entire body is aching. I'm going crazy because of muscle pain until I've tried Muscle Pain Ease Balm. After my workout, just one application provides warm, comforting relief for my muscle pain and joint! Great for relieving muscle pain and 100% organic! ~ Claire B., Pasco, WA
I’m training for a race in 3 months. My heel hurts to the point where when I step down, I’m in pain, oh and can’t forget my knee hurts too. I searched pain relief balm on website and found this.
I used it as directed, like a definite noticeable difference within minutes ... wait about 10-15 more minutes and the pain in my heel is gone. I can walk. I was able to get my run done. No more knee pain either. I’m so incredibly thankful I found this. I will definitely be buying this product again! ~ Joye N., Salt Lake City, Utah
It's not been 6 days since I started using Muscle Pain Ease Balm on my shoulder, the pain is almost gone. I have tried several different brands. This works the best for me. Takes up to several hours to take effect but with reapplication twice a day the muscle pain relief is very good. I love the earthy smell! Thanks for the quick result!~ Shane Davis, Mcnary, AZ
How Transdermal Remedies Work
What is Transdermal? Transdermal is a big word that simply describes the process that happens when a substance enters the bloodstream through the skin. “Trans-“ means across or beyond, and “-dermal” means “relating to the skin,” especially the dermis. Put it all together, and you have “beyond the skin.”
The dermis is the middle of three layers of skin that protect our body. It is a thick layer of tissue below the thin outer skin layer—the epidermis. The dermis contains capillaries, nerve endings, sweat glands, hair follicles and more. A lot happens in the dermis!
For many thousands of years, medicine men and women, shamans, and healers of all varieties—including regular people like us—have applied substances onto the skin to achieve therapeutic effects. Those beneficial effects range from being calmed, soothed, and relaxed, to being fully cured of an ailment.
In today’s world, transdermal drug delivery is now an accepted alternative to oral delivery of drugs and to hypodermic injections. But, it wasn’t always that way. The FDA first accepted this approach in 1979, less than 50 years ago. For the first two years, the only approved transdermal drug was scopolamine, used to combat nausea and vomiting caused by motion sickness.
Those of you who suffer from motion sickness are probably very familiar with the patches you can affix to your body a half an hour or so before flying or going deep-sea fishing. They’ve saved many wretched moments for people over the years.
Interestingly, scopolamine—also known as Devil’s Breath—is a poisonous organic compound, obtained mainly from plants of the genus Scopolia. Like many drugs, scopolamine began its existence as a plant.
Dr. Cole first began learning about these ancient healing herbs when she found herself having to deal with very sick people who could not take in oral medications of any kind because of their delicate digestive systems. She discovered after much experience that the use of transdermal applications of these powerful herbs could be just as effective, if not more so, than oral medications. Why? Transdermal applications bypass the digestive system, going straight into the muscles, then lymph system, and then into the circulatory system.
