Many parents spend countless hours looking for a homeopathic product that provides relief for teething symptoms. As they explore how to soothe and calm teething children and give them comfort during these very uncomfortable times, they often turn to one of the oldest and natural solutions….amber teething necklace. 

AMBER TEETHING NECKLACE DOES IT REALLY WORK? 

According to a huge popularity of amber teething necklaces and positive reviews we can say that this belief is true. Amber Teething Necklaces help babies and toddlers to calm and relax, due to ambers contact with the skin, therefore easing and reducing baby’s reaction to the teething pain.



The amber teething necklace is a bit misunderstood. Several father and mother are under the impression that this device just isn’t intended to be chewed on by the baby. The truth is that is not the truth at all. Baltic amber performs its wondrous healing without being rubbed on the gums or swallowed or chewed on or any such intrusive method. It simply has to be worn and in contact with the skin for it to provide the full benefit of pain relief. 


WHAT AMBER TEETHING NECKLACES REALLY ARE?

The composition of amber teething necklace involves small, carefully rounded and highly polished Baltic amber beads as well as triple strung natural threads to ensure comfort and durability. As a safety feature there is a knot before and after each bead, so that even in the extremely unlikely event of the string being torn, no beads are lost and there is no risk of choking. Amber teething necklaces are secured with a traditional screw clasp, not a hook and ring!

Genuine Baltic amber necklaces for teething are always designed with special string that is knotted between each bead so that if the necklace should be broken, the beads will not scatter. The necklace fastens with a screw clasp that opens and closes easily.



SO WHAT IS THE MAGIC IN BALTIC AMBER 

Baltic amber contains 3-8% of succinic acid, a scientifically examined medical substance used in contemporary medicine. The highest content of the acid is found in the amber cortex--the external layer of the stone.

Amber works by the skin warming the amber which releases healing oils and the oils are then absorbed into the blood stream. The active ingredient is succinic-acid which was analysed by the pioneer of modern bacteriology, the Nobel-prize winner Robert Koch (1886), who confirmed its positive influence and recent scientific research has also proved that succinic acid has a very positive influence on the human organism. Succinic acid is a powerful antioxidant that helps fight toxic free radicals and disruptions of the cardiac rhythm, succinic acid has been shown to stimulate neural system recovery and bolster the immune system, and helps compensate for energy drain in the body and brain, boosting awareness, concentration and reflexes, and reducing stress.



Amber teething necklace - It's not just a pretty necklace.




Baltic amber (succinite) is a fossil resin from the Eocene Age which formed under natural conditions over 45 million years ago. In spite of the many processes, which the resin went through to transform into amber, it remains in the fossil stage, is subject to oxidizing and polymerization. Since this process is ongoing, amber keeps changing so we can assume that it is a “living” stone, friendly to humans. And so, this unique stone has been fascinating humankind for well over a dozen millennia and has been a material for craft and art, as well as a stone thought to have magical and medicinal properties.


So amber teething necklaces is it fact or fancy fiction? Well, according to a huge popularity and positive reviews we can say that this belief is true.

First recorded in 460 BC, amber became the most precious substance of its time, the messenger of ancient history to scientists (the resin having inclusions of tiny insects and plants of that period), and a most unusual healing solution. The healing properties of Baltic amber are attributed to its primary ingredient, succinic acid, which is mostly located in the surface layer of the amber, and is an exceptionally powerful therapeutic healing agent.

So remember…your child doesn’t need to endure teething pain and the irritability that comes with it. At the first sign of teething, which is most often drooling, reach for natural amber teething necklace. And then relax and let nature take its course.



HOW DO YOU CLEAN YOUR AMBER IF BABY FLINGS PEAS ON IT? 

Use a clean, soft cloth and warm water. The amber can be dried and rubbed with clear olive oil, then rubbed with a soft cloth to remove excess oil and restore the polish.


WHERE DO YOU STORE YOUR AMBER WHEN BABY ISN'T WEARING IT? 

Do not store your amber with other jewelry because it can create a permanent white coating on the amber. Also, try to avoid getting lotions and perfumes on your amber. These things can create a coating that prevents the natural oils from being released, thus hindering the healing properties of the stone.
