Castor Oil Packs
How to use this effective detoxifying treatment
Materials Needed
• Wool
flannel- undyed, untreated
• Cold pressed
castor oil
• Electric heating pad
• Baking dish
• Plastic sheet (or 2 plastic trash bags, large size)
• Old bath towel
Instructions for Use
Place the wool flannel in a baking dish. (Use any suitable baking dish for a
conventional oven; use a glass baking dish for the microwave oven). The cloth
should be folded at least 3 thicknesses for use. Pour castor oil over the
flannel, sufficient to saturate it through all thicknesses. Get the pack wet
with castor oil but not dripping. Place the baking dish in the oven, microwave
oven, or hot plate until it is quite warm. Be careful not to burn the pack or to
get it so hot that it will burn you.
Spread the plastic sheet or bags on the bed, couch, or where ever you will be
using the pack. Place the bath towel on top of the plastic. Plug in the heating
pad.
After the pack is warm (again, be careful not to burn yourself!!), apply it to
the indicated area. Put the heating pad on top of the pack and leave it in place
for at least one hour, or as recommended.
You may want to put an additional piece of plastic over the top of the pack to
prevent the oil from staining bed, couch, or chair. The reason for the use of
the plastic is to protect fabrics.
When you are finished using the pack, put it back in the baking dish and leave
it for next time. You DO NOT wash the pack between uses. If the pack begins to
dry out, simply add more castor oil the next time you use it.
Also when you are finished, clean the skin with 2 teaspoons of baking soda added
to a quart of water. The pack draws toxins out of the body and these can be
reabsorbed or cause a skin rash if not removed by cleaning the skin.
It is best to do some relaxing or meditative exercise while you are using the
pack. This is a good time to practice visualization exercises, listen to
personal-growth audio or video tapes, or meditate. It is also fine to sleep with
the pack in place, but be sure to remove the heating pad when sleeping to avoid
burning the skin.
