Biochemic Tissue Cell Salts for  Pregnancy

Pregnancy Tissue Salt Programme — a gentle, natural approach many naturopaths, midwives, and homeopaths recommend to support pregnancy and postpartum recovery using cell salts.

The idea is that during pregnancy, the demand for minerals increases dramatically — not only to support the growing baby, but to keep the mother strong, balanced, and nourished. Tissue salts offer a microdose way to help with this, working on a cellular level without overwhelming the body. 

You can purchase these tissue salts in most homeopathic pharmacies such as Helios, please speak to a qualified practitioner for advice before taking. 

You can find out more on how to support your pregnancy with the Homeopathic Pregnancy Programme.

🧡 How to Take Them:

• Usually taken 3–4 tablets of each salt, 2–3 times per day.

• Many people take combination tablets to make things easier — like Martin & Pleasance, Schuessler Tissue Salts, or Hyland’s brands.

• Safe alongside prenatal vitamins and other supplements (but always best to check with your practitioner if you're on medications or have complex health needs).

🌿 The Pregnancy Tissue Salt Program (Traditional Version)

This plan typically divides the pregnancy into three trimesters, each with its own tissue salt combo. Then there's a set for postpartum recovery.

​

🤰 First Trimester (Weeks 1–12)

• Tissue Salts:

  • Calc Fluor (Calcium Fluoride) – elasticity, prevents stretch marks and hemorrhoids

  • Calc Phos (Calcium Phosphate) – bone and teeth development, energy

  • Ferrum Phos (Iron Phosphate) – supports blood oxygen, immune system, early fatigue

💡 Why: These help lay the foundation, support cell growth, and ease first-trimester fatigue and nausea.

🤰 Second Trimester (Weeks 13–28)

• Tissue Salts:

  • Calc Fluor

  • Calc Phos

  • Ferrum Phos

  • Mag Phos (Magnesium Phosphate) – muscle cramps, nerve health, growing pains

💡 Why: This phase is about rapid growth — baby’s bones and organs develop quickly. Mag Phos helps with round ligament pain and muscle tension.

🤰 Third Trimester (Weeks 29–Birth)

• Tissue Salts:

  • Calc Fluor

  • Calc Phos

  • Ferrum Phos

  • Mag Phos

  • Kali Phos (Potassium Phosphate) – nerve tonic, relieves exhaustion, preps for labor

💡 Why: This mix supports labor preparation, maintains energy levels, and can help reduce anxiety or overwhelm.

🤱 Postpartum / Recovery

• Tissue Salts:

  • Calc Phos – supports tissue and bone recovery

  • Kali Phos – helps with exhaustion, baby blues, sleep disruption

  • Ferrum Phos – replenishes iron, helps with healing

  • Silica – supports tissue healing, milk production, strengthens hair/nails

💡 Why: These aid physical recovery, energy, emotional balance, and help with breastfeeding.
