Not an ordinary flower
The presence of various trace elements in the composition allows the widespread use of chamomile even in cosmetology. But gynecologists took it into service much earlier. This is due to some sedative effect. These procedures somewhat calm the patients and reduce the intensity of discomfort, if they were pronounced. In addition, chamomile provides:
