Back to School: Part 1
P3 Cream, An Essential for Parents & Teachers
As September approaches and the summer holidays draw to a close, thoughts turn to the new school year. Back to school preparations begin in earnest. Schools will be sending out lists of equipment and supplies required; so read on to see why P3 cream is a back to school essential for parents and teachers.
Mixed Emotions
For some of you, you will be returning to lead new classes with new children to get to know and fresh minds to inspire.
For some of you, you will be holding the hand of a little one taking their first steps in education.
For some of you, you will be waving off your children as they start the next stage, middle or high school maybe, or perhaps watching them begin their graduation year.
And for some of you, you will be helping a child move out and into a college dorm room, helping them begin the first steps to adulthood and perhaps leaving an empty nest at home.
All of this will bring mixed feelings – excitement, pride and hopeful anticipation. Perhaps some joy at a little personal freedom that may be gained and perhaps a little sadness that a stage has passed so quickly.
My Experience
As a parent, I have lived through all of these moments and certainly felt these emotions. I can remember the mix of feelings well and whilst I relished every stage with my children, some did seem to fly by faster than others.
I have always wanted to provide for my family; to find the balance between keeping them safe and protected and preparing them to go out into the world with opportunities to challenge them and help them grow. As parents we want our children to be healthy and happy inside and out. So I always encouraged healthy foods, time outside, hard work and lots of play be that sport, parks or family walks and activities. I also believe a little boredom is great to spark a child’s imagination.
I also made sure that what they put into and onto their bodies was as healthy and natural as possible. Home cooked food, organic, local produce and a good mix of protein, carbs, healthy fats and vegetables. That same drive for natural products helped me develop P3 cream so that my patients and my customers could have a pain relief that did nothing but help them heal.
That’s why P3 cream contains natural ingredients that are safe for all the family to use. Plus it is water based and quick to absorb, so no yucky oily feeling on your hands or clothes.
A Back To School Essential
It’s these properties that make it a back to school essential. We have plenty of information about our ingredients on our website – just Click Here. Our roll-on is great to pop into a backpack so that your child can apply it quickly and easily at school.
We even bundle it up with our lemon oil hand sanitiser (which kills 99% of disease causing germs!) for the perfect back to school duo. And keep a larger bottle on hand as part of a family first aid kit, to ease any aches or pains when they come back home to you at the end of the day.
Our P3 Cream Calm with the added lavender oil is really lovely for part of the bedtime routine to ease your kid into sleep. And if your children are heading off to college, you can add it to their kit and sleep a little easier yourself; knowing that they have all they need to look after themselves away from home.
And if the idea of an empty nest is proving overwhelming, check out this article for some advice: empty nest advice from Good Housekeeping.
A Teacher’s Resource
As a teacher, having a bottle of this in your desk drawer means you can help ease any bumps, aches or pulled muscles instantly with no worries about the side effects of the ingredients that are found in many over-the- counter medications.

It’s also a great resource for you when your back begins to ache from leaning over desks or knees and ankles stiffen after a long day on your feet. Quick and easy to apply, with no residue and a fresh, pleasant smell; pain relief will come fast and the cooling sensation will provide a spring in your step. Plus, you can apply it as many times as you want, throughout the day.
In Part 2 of our Back to School blogs, I will give you some suggestions for healthy snacks and lunches to add to your child’s backpack and to have in the home for when they return. Plus some advice about how much exercise your children need to stay fit and healthy – always something to bear in mind when they are back at school. Keep your eyes out for that one.
Here at P3, our team endeavours to be with you every step of the way; providing natural pain-relief for your family so you can live the life you love with those you love.
