User Reviews for viburnum opulus

I experience debilitating menstrual symptoms and not only is cramp bark far more effective than NSAIDs, it's effects are immediate.

During pregnancy, I have irritable uterus (consistent uncomfortable contractions every few minutes that don't go away for the entire third trimester). Midwife gave me a sample of cramp bark tea. Did nothing to help with contractions, but gave me gas, which, combined with contractions, made me even more uncomfortable.

I have used this for IBS spasms

I used to use Chaste Tree but I transitioned to Cramp Bark for my dysmenorrhea, which is TERRIBLE due to large fibroids. It takes some time to start working, though it works to ease the pain. I take 40 drops of the tincture with water at the onset of pain. Depending on the severity of the cramps, I might take it twice per day for the first day, though on the second day, I might reduce the dose to 26 drops and take it once since my cramps are usually subsiding by then.

Used for refractory dysmenorrhea

I recently had some ribs broken and the muscles around that area that cramped up real bad. I was in a lot of pain. Cramp back took all that pain away. I love this stuff for any kind of cramps. It works fast and you can feel the muscles relax.

Cramp bark is the only thing that has helped me with my extreme menstrual cramps and the pain i have between periods. i have an unusually large uterus and this is the only thing medicine or over the counter that has worked!
