Our Children’s Chest Balm is a gentle, petroleum-free alternative to conventional chest rubs — thoughtfully crafted by expert herbalists to support comfort and wellbeing during seasonal changes. This soothing blend features calming lavender, chamomile and calendula, alongside child-friendly botanicals like coconut oil, thyme and eucalyptus, to create a nurturing balm for delicate skin.

Made without petroleum, parabens or harsh additives, it’s suitable for children aged 3 and above. To use, gently massage a small amount onto the chest or back as part of your child’s evening or wellness routine. Ideal for parents seeking a natural, skin-friendly balm to create cosy, calming moments at home.

Coconut Oil

A gentle, nourishing base oil that moisturises and protects delicate skin. Naturally rich in antioxidants, it helps keep the skin soft, comfortable, and well-conditioned while carrying the benefits of infused herbs.

Lavender Flower

Known for its calming aroma, lavender helps create a sense of relaxation and ease. Its gentle botanical properties support comfort and help your child unwind before rest.

Eucalyptus Herb & Eucalyptus Radiata Essential Oil

Eucalyptus radiata offers a mild, child-friendly scent that feels clean and refreshing. Traditionally used for its uplifting and clearing aroma, it helps create a sense of openness and comfort.

Chamomile Flower

A soothing botanical that supports relaxation and helps ease feelings of tension. Its soft, comforting aroma is ideal for bedtime routines.

Thyme Herb

Traditionally valued for its warming, aromatic qualities. Thyme offers a gentle herbal scent that helps create a feeling of comfort and ease during seasonal changes.

Calendula Herb

Calendula is known for its gentle, skin-soothing properties. It helps maintain calm, comfortable skin and supports a sense of balance and wellbeing.

Peppermint Leaf & Essential Oil

Naturally refreshing and cooling, peppermint offers an invigorating scent that helps refresh the senses and provides a clean, uplifting aroma.

Candelilla Wax

A plant-based wax that gives the balm its smooth, easy-to-apply texture. It helps lock in moisture and keeps the formula fully vegan.


This product contains coconut oil, lavender, eucalyptus, peppermint, chamomile, thyme, calendula, candelilla wax, peppermint essential oil and eucalyptus radiata essential oil.


As a decongestant: Take a small amount of the balm and warm it between your hands. Gently massage it onto your child's chest and throat, 1-2 times per day, especially before bedtime. For best results, we recommend massaging the balm also on the soles of your child’s feet before bed, leaving it on overnight. Rubbing the balm into the soles of the feet is a form of foot reflexology, which can help improve circulation, relax muscles, ease tension and promote a restful sleep.

Cautions

Suitable for ages 3+. External use only. Do not apply to broken or sensitive skin.

Storage

Store in a cool, dry place, out of reach of children.


To enhance the benefits of our Children’s Chest Balm:

  • Warm Comfort: Offer warm soups and broths rich in garlic, ginger, and spices, which are naturally immune-boosting.

  • Stay Hydrated: Ensure your child drinks plenty of water and herbal teas suitable for their age.

  • Vitamin C Boost: Incorporate fruits rich in Vitamin C to aid recovery (including citrus fruits, berries, kiwi, papaya, pineapple, melons, mango and a range of colourful vegetables).

  • Steam Inhalation: Conduct gentle steam inhalation sessions. Add a small dab of the Children’s Chest Balm to the hot water to enhance the process. Ensure close supervision and maintain a comfortable distance to prevent scalding.

  • Adequate Rest: Ensure your child gets ample sleep to promote faster recovery.

  • Maintain a Clean Environment: Regularly sanitise toys and surfaces to minimise germ exposure.
