Baltic Amber is fossilized tree resin from over 45 million years ago! Of course when I became a parent and found out about Baltic Amber necklaces being a natural remedy for teething, I was thrilled to use fossils to ease my daughters teething aches without having to ever use conventional medicine. Although amber is not a mineral, it is generally classified as a gemstone and occurs in a range of di
fferent colors. Each piece of jewelry is handmade with Genuine Baltic Amber. Not only is our Baltic Amber jewelry beautiful, but when worn acts as a natural pain reliever for all types of aches and ailments. The teething necklaces are simply to be worn close to the skin and not intended to be chewed on in any way. My daughter has used an amber necklace and I swear by it's healing powers! Baltic Amber jewelry is a great, natural way of helping children and adults through all the discomforts and pains that life throws our way. For example, I wear an amber bracelet to relieve carpal tunnel pain and it really works! Baltic Amber jewelry has been used as a natural remedy for pain relief for hundreds of years. When worn, Baltic Amber warms with body heat and releases an oil containing succinic acid which is absorbed into the skin. The succinic acid works as a natural pain killer, blocking pain and reducing inflammation. Baltic Amber has some of the highest concentrations of succinic acid found in nature. Our amber is purchased from a member of the International Amber Association in Gdansk, Poland and is a trusted source for genuine Baltic Amber, test samples with Infrared Spectroscopy and ensures that all of the amber is 100% Genuine. Our jewelry is made in compliance with the strict EU guidelines for the sale of amber teething necklaces and use the New Tension Release clasps.
