What is Vasambu (Calamus Sweet Flag) Bracelet?

Vasambu, commonly known as Sweet Flag, is a revered herb in traditional Indian medicine, especially valued for its gentle healing properties for newborns and infants. The Vasambu bracelet is crafted from this aromatic herb and has been traditionally tied around a baby’s wrist or ankle to promote health and alleviate common infant ailments. This ancient practice harnesses the natural benefits of Calamus to support your baby’s well-being from day one.

Benefits of Vasambu Bracelet for Babies

Supports Digestive Health and Relieves Colic

Vasambu is well-known for its ability to soothe the digestive system. When babies chew or inhale the fragrance from the Vasambu bracelet, it helps to relieve colic, gas, and other stomach discomforts, promoting easier digestion and comfort.

Enhances Immunity and Prevents Common Illnesses

This natural herb is believed to strengthen the immune system in infants, helping to raise babies without frequent sickness. The antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties of Calamus contribute to protecting babies from minor infections.

Soothing Aromatic Effects

The gentle fragrance of Vasambu works as a calming agent, providing sensory comfort to babies while also supporting their overall health through inhalation of its natural oils.

Traditional Usage & How It Works

For generations, Vasambu bracelets have been tied securely around the wrists or ankles of newborns. This practice allows babies to chew on or smell the herb naturally, which in turn aids digestion and calms the nervous system. The bracelet serves as a convenient, non-invasive way to provide herbal support throughout the day.
