Castor Oil Pack Therapy

Castor Oil is the oil derived from the castor seed, Ricinus communis. It has many therapeutic properties but is mainly known for its anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antifungal actions. Castor oil is also known to be so effective due to its ability to stimulate lymphatic flow and boost the liver's function of detoxication. Castor oil is an ancient oil used in numerous therapeutic applications and its origins are traced back to ancient Egypt.

The creation of castor oil packs, a technique widely embraced in natural medicine globally, is a common practice in various holistic approaches. Castor oil packs allow for the oil to penetrate the skin deeper due to longer exposure, due to its thickness and richness the tissue absorbs the oil beautifully normally deeper than most oils or lotions. The process involves massaging the abdomen and liver area with heavy amount of hexane-free castor oil for about ten minutes, then placing a castor oil soaked clothe over the massaged abdomen employing a heating pad over the clothe/abdomen...relax and rest for about twenty minutes enhances absorption and encourages deeper penetration of the oil & healing.

This simple yet profound therapy may and can support detoxification which supports liver & gallbladder health, improve/alleviate menstrual issues, supporting overall menstrual well-being, can help with uterine fibroids & shrinking ovarian cysts, support digestive health by potentially reducing inflammation, promoting bowel regularity and supporting overall gastrointestinal well-being.
