Cramp bark is a plant that grows in North America. Historically, Native Americans used cramp bark as medicine for reducing swollen glands and treating fluid retention, mumps, and eye disorders. Cramp bark has many other common names: Guelder Rose, Water Elder, European Cranberrybush, & Snowball Tree. The part of the plant used is the bark.
Dysmenorrhea which literally means “difficult menstruation”. Each month when the uterine lining sheds as menstruation, the uterus must contract. In women with dysmenorrhea the contractions are very painful. The uterus may even spasm.
Pain can be localized to the lower abdomen, but it can also be in the lower back, in the vulva, as well as radiating down the thighs. Cramp bark and Black Haw are extremely effective at reducing uterine contractions, and uterine muscle spasm.
