Women's life
“Women's herbs? Do they exist?” asks Anda Dinhopl in her book Women's Herbs and answers:
"Spontaneously, the following come to mind: yarrow, lady's mantle, raspberry leaves, clary sage. Without question, they play a key role in many teas and massage oils. But of course, I don't want to limit myself to them. Every herb is a "women's herb," every essential oil a "women's oil" when we use it for our feminine health."
In this sense, women's herbs play a central role in herbal medicine. They accompany us helpfully through life, promote our well-being, and alleviate disharmonies.
We herbalists are women of different ages with diverse experiences and offer correspondingly multifaceted advice.
menstruation
Once a month. For almost 40 years. A total of more than 2,000 days.
That is the average time we bleed in our lives as women.
So it makes sense that we take extra care of ourselves during these days, treat ourselves with care, and develop rituals that make us feel good! That we especially appreciate ourselves and each other during this time, and show respect, admiration, and admiration for this fantastic process that takes place within us every month.
This is sometimes difficult in our demanding world. But it's worth the attempt.
It's also valuable for us to talk about it, exchange ideas, find ways together to make the most of this time, and learn to understand the clues our bodies give us. What diet, which herbs, and essential oils can support us, how can we consciously experience and support our cycle—these are the topics our herbalists are happy to help you with.
The most recent books on this topic – such as “The Book of Days” by Sabine Maier and “Ebb and Blood” by Eva Wünsch and Luisa Strömer – can be found on our bookshelf .
Pregnancy & life with small children
Many women visit the herbal pharmacy for the first time during their pregnancy to be accompanied by natural care products and soothing herbal teas to help them through this very special time in their lives.
We carry the products and books of midwife and aromatherapist Ingeborg Stadelmann . She has developed helpful oils and ointments for birth preparation, the postpartum period, and baby and child care.
HAUTSINN ’s care oils are particularly fine and sensual :
MAMA Baby Belly Oil – Perfect skin care for the expectant mother.
Selected organic oils promote elasticity and regeneration of the skin.
MINI ME Baby Oil – care, cleansing and massage of delicate baby skin.
Organic plant-based oils for the needs of delicate baby skin with a delicate vanilla scent – there's nothing better!
For skin care, cleaning baby's bottom and gentle baby massages.

Time of change
Unfortunately, we don't have any miracle cures for menopausal symptoms like hot flashes, sleep problems, restlessness, etc. But perhaps we do have a few ideas...
Herbs and essential oils can have a significant impact. Furthermore, it's often enough to simply change a few habits (even if it's not easy) and strengthen yourself in a timely manner. Some women find that simply following an alkaline diet and avoiding coffee helps.
Great books like Menopause or Goddesses Never Age by Dr. Christian Northrup can be found on our bookshelf .
You can read an interview with Anda Dinhopl on this topic here:
sexuality
is just as taboo in our everyday conversations as menstruation. And it's just as important to talk about it.
That is why this topic is important to us herbalists – after all, it has a great influence on well-being and sensuality.
What we like to recommend:
- YES, the natural lubricant and massage gel
- Our Sensual Massage Oil
- Books like Come as You Will by Emily Nagoski or Yoni by Govinda/Brandl from our bookshelf .
