- During this video, we are going to discuss how you can make your very own castor oil pack. Castor oil packs have been used for many years by various different cultures. Typically it’s used to address issues of inflammation, whether that be arthritis, issues of fibroid tumors, ovarian cysts, etc. Being a Mercier Therapist and working with my clients who are dealing with infertility issues, a castor oil pack is a really lovely adjunct that can help clients support at home the things we are doing here in the clinic.

You are the only person im aware of who physically puts the pack on for us to see. You are awesome!!!
So glad it was helpful!
Barbara o'neill has a video to how to make the castor oil pad
Agreed, I was looking for a while for THIS!!!
Yes, I agree. This is really helpful and answered my questions on how to really do this. Thanks
I use a cloth coated in bee's wax for a cover. I found them at a natural food store. They are made as a natural food wrapper.
Oh that’s wonderful….thank you for sharing!
First person to recommend a puppy pad....have a whole box of those.....thanks for thinking outside the box and sharing....
I love your approach of going over some best practices but also not letting perfection get in the way.
Thank you so much! Imperfect action will get your so much farther than perfect inaction :)
Apppreciate the visual !!!
I love how you present this in a way is to receive the greatest health from this process. Example having it heated, relaxing while it’s on you and not just staying busy. That is extremely helpful as most people don’t realize it requires energy to heal and when we can relax and allow the healing, it is more beneficial than just another task on her to do list.
Just wanted to say thank you and have a very calming voice and energy ❤
Thank you so much for your kind words! I am so glad you enjoy our content :)
Awesome! Thank you for showing this and love the Thermotex pad!
:)
Thank you for demonstrating how we are supposed to use castor oil packs. Thank you for enlightening us on the use of such an underrated product! God bless you !
You are so welcome!
This is an awesome video as you answer all the questions I had about how to apply the pack and keeping your flannel oiled up. I was adding more oil every night. I am trying to break up fibrosis if my liver. I am trying to do the pack over night. I have a nice wrap that has been helpful. Thank you.
Makes sense. Thank you for demonstating throughout the video!
:)
Your very kind to answer all these questions💕
💞
Thank you for demonstrating as it is easier than I thought😊
you're welcome :)
Thanks for the demonstration so amazing good job subbed❤
:)
Thank You. Very informative ❤

Thank you for sharing and taking the time to explain.
you're welcome :)
I use a feminine napkin as a pack and it works wonderfully. Thin ones inside your bra...thicker one for other areas. After using, I fold them in half and fold again and place in a glass jar for repeated use. Thank you for showing us your method 😊
I wondered about using those. Thats what I'm going to do.
@user-mj4vw3cm9y yes it works perfect. Each night, I add a bit more castor oil and use it for several more days. I got this hint from Barbara O'Neill who has excellent videos on the subject.
Awesome tip! Thank you so much😊
How do you fold them without the pad glue strip sticking together??🤔unless you don't use the glue strip??🤷♀️🤔
@DdDd-pk4pu Fold completely in half, castor oil on the inside then fold again. The jar keeps them perfectly. Keep it in cooler dark area 😊
I actually apply the Castor oil directly to area after a warm bath. Presently applying to eyelids, over eyes and below eyes for Catarract.
That's a great idea to apply after a warm bath! I've heard of applying over eyelids for cataracts...keep us posted with your results!
Where do you exactly apply it ?
@@parinazaz4044 that depends on your goal...placing it over the liver can help with colon cleansing and lymph drainage but if you're more concerned about hormonal imbalance issues then also include the lower abdominal/pelvic region.

Thanks very much for this video 🎉
You’re welcome ☺️
Amazing video ❤️
I just subscribed !
Thank you so much!!
Hi Doctor this is the best video I have seen on how to apply to stomach …. How do I use it for my under active thyroid ? Will be ordering heating pad and flannel ….
Please do I need to just reuse the flannel after each use ? Or do I need to wash it ?
Thanks for making this video, informative. I will try and make my own pack and see the benefits in terms of scar uterine tissue.
That’s great Lynda! Please keep me updated with your progress :)
I just found your video! OMG i need to start immediately. I just had a miscarriage from a large cyst found on my uterus. Im told i will need surgery to remove the cyst. I rather try a natural remedy first, i have one month to try anything before i see a surgeon 😢.
I just sprained my wrist, was on a plane and the young man next to me told me about this. Watched your video, and going to make a pack of my wrist, will let you know.
Ok! Please keep us updated :)
Hell, I’m pouring that oil directly all over my tummy, gb, and liver and put a hand towel over that and the heating pad on top of that. I will be laying in bed in my pj’s. Wish me luck. I will be laundering that hand towel every 2 or 3 uses. A lovely hour! Thank you so much!
❤️
@sophiagertz1083: so, how are you doing? Do you feel better?
Your cute! I’m guessing you are young! I’m 70, grandmother to many, just wanted to comment on your statement, as I read it I could visualize a person saying that who has a lot of hope! I’m sitting here right now with one of those red mechanic rags soaked in oil, wrapped with Saran Wrap, but I will most likely try to sew on some Velcro so that I’m not having to go through that wrap, I’m very frugal. Anyway, I have fatty liver cirrhosis, a friend from Grace and and Truth Ministries on utube told me about castor oil, she also bought me a bottle so I could try it out. I hope you have very good success with your packs, and I hope the same for myself. I’m gonna use it on my feet when I’ve got some time to make a pack, I’ve read it can take warts off, maybe bone spurs, and they did say it would heal the heel spurs that come with age, all of which I have! Not a single doctor tells you of the heathy and cheaper cures for ailments, I guess it would curb their job, so another journey begins🙏💯
@@andreasommerrock7775it would be nice to hear her success with the packs!
@@florachildressEarth2Flohear hear
Your video was very helpful, thank you! I have a lump in my breast that is not going away so I'm going to try this.
Look up Barbara ONeil natural remedies she talks about using castor oil on your breasts to dissolve cysts etc worth a look it does work I tried it takes a few weeks of applying it every night leave it on while you sleep❤
I hope you have experienced relief 💐
Thank you for this and the fact that I found you. My youngest daughter has tried everything possible to get pregnant with no success. I sent her a link to your video. 💖💖🙏🙏💖💖
Thank you Pat! Let me know how she responds and have her check out my website more fertility tips!
Pat, I would strongly recommend that you and your daughter ask God to help her, in Jesus' Name. He is the true Healer and He wants to help her. God bless you all, BIG TIME!!!
Hey! Would this help resolve pancreas cysts 😢?
I had a security gate that came loose and fell down on my legs... more specific my knees and ankles. I used the same way every day with castor oil to rap my knees and ankles when I go to bed. I kept it on for at least 5 hours a day. 2 weeks later, there was no indication that anything happened. The blue / purple went away within about 4 days, and the rest was healing the scar tissue. I am 50 years old, and this could have impacted my life going forward. I did not have all the above but had hospital pads, which I saturated every day with oil and plastic rap....😊
Thats an amazing testimonial!!!! Thank you for sharing :)
For heat, a simple hot water bottle is also effective. 😊
Great tip!
Post menaupausal benign ovarian cyst? How often thanks great video
Thyroid pack every night x 1 hour
Liver pack every night during follicular phase x 1 hour (ideally overnight)
Pelvic pack every night during luteal phase x 1 hour (ideally overnight)
Do this for at least 3 months and note any changes
Hello! I have type 4 endometriosis and scar tissue in my uterus from my c-section, as well as ovarian cysts. Would this help with all these conditions? Thank you so much.
It has helped many women with similar symptoms :). It takes time though--I'd be consistent and give yourself at least 3 months to determine if helping
A gynecologist put a Marena in my when I was 57 to stop my menstruation. It came out after 3 month and I am struggling with my placenta coming out by my private parte. Will the castor oil pack help to shrink it back in. An other gynecologist put a pessary ring in which keeps it in for now. I don't want an operation

Hello Dr. Wilson. I really appreciate your video.
I just got diagnosed with lymphedema from my cancer treatment. It’s very odd in placement. It’s on both sides and both breasts but it’s twice as bad on my left side. I also have a pocket just over my hips on my low back which is causing me a lot of back discomfort and pain.
I’m trying to figure out what to do for it before my skin changes like it has somewhat on both sides.
Anyway I don’t understand something that you’ve and others have done. This is an honest question. I’m very new to caster oil and I’m just trying to understand.
You put the cotton flannel in a glass container. I assume it’s because it can break down the plastic and that’s not good for your body. At least that’s what I’ve heard from other places. But it looks like the caster oil that you bought is in a plastic bottle. I’m might be wrong about the bottle. But then you wrap yourself in plastic. Why? Isn’t the caster oil breaking down the plastic and soaking into the cotton flannel and then into your body?
If you explain this to me maybe I’ll understand. Maybe there’s no harm being done. I just want to do the very best thing for my body to help itself heal. Lymphedema can be miserable. I’m sure that it’s not good for your body either.
I had so much fluid back up around my heart and lungs that I had two pericardial window within five weeks. So all of this fluid backup is very serious. I would really appreciate your guidance and help. You seem like a very knowledgeable, helpful, caring person.
God bless,
Julie ♥️
hello Julie...this is a great question and one that many people ask! I originally made this video just to demonstrate a basic castor oil pack "protocol" for a client of mine who was interested. I agree that the cleanest technique is to utilize all organic products, including castor oil in a dark glass bottle, packs that are made from all organic/natural products, etc...but with clients who are hesitant to make a financial investment, I personally think keeping it simple can help me get them to try it...we can always work on using higher grade products at a later time :). I am so glad this video has gotten so much traffic because I believe castor oil is a real gem for helping our bodies stay healthy!!!
I have a stock of quality organic Birdseye cotton flat cloth diapers that I used for my last child (many moons ago). Its basically like a tea towel.
I also have prefolded, which are also organic cotton, but are obviously are much thicker and meant to absorb.
Would either of these work?
I would think so, yes :)
I'm wanting to use this to help heal fibrotic lungs. Do you have any tips for using this on the chest and back area?
I'd recommend using castor oil packs on both the back and chest area. For ease and convenience, you might consider purchasing a castor oil pack that is designed to wrap around and tie in place. Here is a link to for the company that I love and trust: www.shopqueenofthethrones.com/?platform=grin&link_id=1470218&token=7LWCG2nUcQOCWMhwU9UvTPrarooYPY1p&contact_id=be7f7027-ee71-4005-9638-31db9bb26784&attribution_window=30
And then use it regularly and often! It's important to remember that castor oil supports your body's natural healing processes and we have to give it a little time to work :)
Thanks very much, please I want to know if I can do it during my period
this is one of those "it depends situations"...if you are a heavy bleeder, then I would avoid castor oil packs during menstruation bc it could potentially increase the bleeding. However, it you have a light flow & your goal is to relax and reduce muscle cramping it is generally fine.
I contacted the company that I have been buying my organic black Jamaican castor oil from they said they get it in plastic barrels and repackage it in glass...
Lol! Why am I not surprised?
I know this happens! That's why I started buying from only trusted sources...**Queen of Thrones ;)
Hello Dr! How long does a pack last in the fridge ? And how many times can I keep reusing a pack ?
you could potentially store it in the fridge for quite a long time. If you are using the packs regularly, however, you would want to replace them every 2-3 months. Some women say that they wash them, but I have found that to be difficult purely because it's hard to wash the oil out.
Also I do have lung cancer. It’s doormat and just sitting there right now and I’m not doing anything for treatment. I also have really scared up lungs from multiple pneumonia’s which is what my oncologist thinks caused the cancer. For instance, in just one year I was hospitalized 17 times for pneumonia. Anyway would the caster oil packs help with the scarring and the thickening of the walls of my lungs?
Thanks again for your help. I really appreciate it.♥️
I haven't had any personal experience with using castor oil this way but there's nothing to indicate that it wouldn't be helpful. wishing you the best and prayers for recovery
Where do yo buy your castor oil? I was just diagnosed with frozen shoulder and its very painful. Can't raise my right arm. I would like to try this with the castor oil. Do I buy a shoulder pad? I can't find any. Please let me know. Thank you!
shop.queenofthethrones.com/inspirepelvicpt
This is an affiliate link for Queen of Thrones--she is awesome & has designed amazing oil packs that really simplify the process! I would encourage you to check her out. You could easily make either the pelvic pack or the liver pack into a shoulder pack!
I think it would be more convenient to use a sanitary pad in a small area.
Since making this video, I am much more in favor of using queen of thrones castor pack--she uses all organic, very clean ingredients. The main problem with a sanitary pad is that it would not be very clean. At the end of the day, it really depends on what you feel comfortable putting on your skin. But if you are trying to rid your body of toxins, applying fewer or no toxins would be the way to go!
Do you have a video on castor oil n breast health
Great question!! I'm working on that one now and will have it up soon :)
Hi i have buritus of both shoulders also spondylitis of the neck and spine causing vertigo.
I have oestophina so more overhall pain also ,ive heard that castor oil works for pathogens i also have h paylori and diverticulitis would this work for those conditions as i cant tolerate the very toxic antibiotics for h paylori.
I prefer the natural methods.
Thankyou.❤❤
Hi! I would encourage you to speak with your physician regarding use of castor oil for these conditions prior to starting. Castor oil has great anti-inflammatory properties, but I do feel that a consult with your physician would be the safest route just in case their are any contraindications!
When removed from frig, must you make sure room temperature prior to application on body?
It's not absolutely necessary but it will likely feel much nicer if allowed to warm to room temp :)
Would this help with Crohns inflammation? Also, will this technique help dissolve a colon abscess?
Castor oil works as a natural anti-inflammatory, and regular use of castor packs would be a great addition to your management of the disease. If you have had these symptoms a long time, it may take 2-3 months to see that results that you would like to see. Also, if you have not already done so, consider removing inflammatory items such as inflammatory foods and other harmful/toxic items from you home/living environment to allow your body a chance to focus on healing! :)
Really helpful, thanks. You recommend 1 hour 4-5 times per week but do I use that for the rest of my life...or for 6 months etc?
That depends on what you are trying to achieve! If you feel comfortable giving me a little more info, maybe I could help give you a better time frame!
@@DrKimberleyWilsonPTDPTCertDN Thanks for responding. I have fibroids. I don't remember the sizes, but it was enough for the hospital to recommend surgery. I refused. I want to try this method to reduce or remove them.
@@momentswithmarlonot good choice you made
Any suggestions for post menopausal/total hysterectomy older women?
Hey did it work, is fibroids gone. Kindly need this information.. Please reply
Thank you for this Video.
Does it also make sense to do the packs during fertility treatment (I have PCOS and will take hormones that trigger ovulation)?
You’re welcome! Yes, I would absolutely recommend while TTC. Castor oil packs can help resolve ovarian cysts, and ultimately egg viability :)
Hello! For how long do you recomand the pack? I understand that 5 days a week, but how many weeks or months? I have advanved endometriosys (3/4) and would like to give it a try, before my surgery. Thank you!
Here is a general recommendation:
This protocol is ideal for those with fertility problems, Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, hypothyroid, PCOS, endometriosis, postpartum, perimenopause and menopause. The purpose of this protocol is to support regulation of the monthly hormonal cycle. It does not matter if you are menstruating or not.
Hormone Balance & Detox:
Day 1 of your menstrual cycle up to ovulation:
Wear castor oil thyroid pack for 1 hour each day.
Wear liver pack for at least 1 hour before bed, or ideally overnight. This is specifically supportive for the highly estrogenic and inflammatory time of your cycle to reduce e inflammation and support colon cleansing.
Ovulation up to menstruation:
Continue to wear castor oil thyroid pack for 1 hour each day.
Switch to wearing a pelvic pack for at least 1 hour before bed, or ideally overnight. This is specifically supportive for the highly progesterogenic time of your cycle, to nourish your uterus, ovaries, and fallopian tubes.
**Golden rule of 3: In general, with hormone imbalance it takes 3 months to notice any type of benefit. However, many notice some symptomatic relief immediately such as better sleep, better bowel movement, and less stress.
@@DrKimberleyWilsonPTDPTCertDN thank you very much for intormations!
This was so good of you to share this much detail for us viewers. Super helpful and super grateful.
Hi Dr. Can castor oil pack cause die off , like further bloating and flu like symptoms??
Hello...bloating/flu like symptoms are not typical with castor oil pack usage. Common response is reduced bloating in support of healthy lymph/liver function. If you're experiencing these symptoms, try stopping the packs to see if symptoms resolve. If you see a return of symptoms when you reapply the packs, you may want to consult a functional medicine practitioner for further assessment to see what else may be contributing to your symptoms.
Is it safe to use a castor oil pack while on your period or is it best to wait until a certain point within the cycle? (Folicular, luteal, ovulation)
I typically recommend placing the pack over the liver during follicular phase, then over the entire pelvis after ovulation and until your period starts. Some women do like to where is during their period though--it can help with inflammation/bloating but there is a bit of a precaution r/t potential for increased bleeding. So, if your period are typically heavy flow, then maybe choose not to wear it during your cycle is a better option.
Can simply applying castor oil to bottoms of feet and over abdomen at bedtime without using the "pack" (thinking about my son) still help?
100%--There are lots of good reasons to use the pack technique but topical application without the wrapping is a good practice as well :)
I don't understand using the plastic wrap because of all of the chemicals in it that may leach into the skin, especially with the heat?
I absolutely understand your concern. The wrap is to help contain the oil, as it can be very messy. It is not absolutely necessary, it is just the way that I use it :)
@DrKimberleyWilsonPTDPTCertDN Thank you for your response. Contemplating this for trying to shrink fibroids and endometrial hyperplasia vs hysterectomy
If you don’t have heating pad , can you use hot water bottle
Yes! My daughter like to use her weighted heated blanket. The warmth just helps to open the pores and allow the castor oil into your body. :)
Can you use thicker sterile gauze instead of the thick cloth?
I haven't tried that so I'm not sure how messy it would be. If you try it, let us know!
I have IBS do you think this will help me??
yes I do!
Well, I’m old, so I guess that follicular phase statement would be null and void for me?😅
It's still a good practice for those of us who are in menopause :) Day 1 of your cycle would start first day of the new moon. Then just count your days 1-14 is follicular phase, 15-28 is luteal phase
My granddaughter has endometriosis and Crohn’s had surgery a 1 year ago due to crohn’s which was a nightmare she went through Hell she still has pain and she still has a hard time going number 2 due to narrowing in her intestines she is scheduled for surgery again Crohn’s wondering if castor oil could have helped her. Her dr. Did not say anything about castor oil. I just learned of castor oil and I purchased a bottle hoping this would help her go more easily and help with pain.
I would recommend castor oil pack for your granddaughter. Castor oil is a natural anti-inflammatory & the use of the pack protocol will help to support the parasympathetic nervous system--this will help the body cleanse itself of inflammatory toxins naturally! If she is still having periods, follow this protocol:
thyroid pack 1 hour + liver pack 1 hour (or ideally overnight) every night during the follicular phase of her cycle.
breast pack 1 hour + pelvic pack 1 hour (or ideally overnight) every night during luteal phase of cycle
allow 3-4 months of consistent protocol for noticeable improvement
Does the castor oil infertility packs work in the same way, for a breast cyst. Is it the same process?
Castor oil packs for the breast help to support the lymphatic system. Pair the breast pack with the pelvic pack during the luteal phase of your cycle! One of the reasons that we develop lumps/cysts in the breast is bc breasts are primarily fat tissue & toxins are stored in fat.
And do it work for polyps to?
It has been reported to help dissolve polyps. It will take time and consistency thought--give it at least 3 months of consistent usage
I had abscess overies , very sick in October and as well as big fibroids booking uteraial tubes so I have kidney stents in had a major surgery but could not do the hysterectomy so on iv and now oral antibiotics for bacterial infection, so trying to rid that infection, so I can have a safe next surgery , help do you think this can help with that❤
If I were in your situation, I would feel comfortable doing castor oil liver packs, placing the cloth over the liver for 1 hour in the evening before bedtime to support the liver in its effort to detox while you are sleeping
@@DrKimberleyWilsonPTDPTCertDN Thank you
Do you feel this would help with belly fat and stretch marks?
stretch marks, yes...with regard to belly fat I would say it depends on what is the root cause. Hormonal issues, often driven by problems with the gut, can cause us to store fat around our tummy area. So if that is the case, then castor oil packs could potentially help with that. I would recommend also including a thyroid pack 1 hour/day as well, since the thyroid is so important for regulating hormones. Castor oil packs support the healing process, but it's important to figure out root causes for your symptoms :)
How can i use this castor oil pack if i have neck and back pain?
same protocol. You could add an additional pack in the areas that are painful but I'd still recommend the pack over your liver/abdomen to support detox
Kimberly, Can this be used for adhesions from previous surgeries? The scar tissue is crowing my bowels and makes if very painful for passing stool, I am 81 and this is getting worse over the last 3 yrs. TY
Castor oil can help to soften adhesions, even if it has been a while since surgery. However, with older scar tissue you would expect a longer time frame to see improvement. It sounds like you would also benefit from seeing a pelvic health physical therapist. Do you have anyone in your area?

I had my fibroids removed surgically 2yrs ago, 4-6months after the surgery i started having swollen and pain on my left abdomen, i went for scan and it was Overian Cyst. I still have the pain and swollen up till now, especially when I'm about to ovulate and i have been trying to get pregnant for the past 7 months now, no positive result. I want to start doing the castor oil pack, but my question is this, when can I do the castor oil pack for fertility? And does it matter if its done before sexual Intercourse or after? I don't know if the heat can affect sperm after sex. Pls I need your help... 🙏
to help regulate hormones, you can wear a castor pack for up to 1 hour over your thyroid throughout the month. Wear castor pack positioned over your liver from day 1 of cycle to ovulation to help reduce inflammation and support colon cleansing, over your lower abdominal/pelvic region ovulation to menses. Both liver and pelvic pack should be worn at least 1 hour before bed or ideally overnight. Heat from a heating pad is gentle and only helping to open the pores of your skin to allow castor oil to penetrate deep, so it will not negatively impact the health of the sperm.
I've heard that the oil should be in a dark, glass bottle because it'll pull the chemicals out of the plastic and into your skin.
Glass materials typically have a less risk for toxins as compared to plastics. With that being said, do your research if you choose to use a plastic bottle and choose one that is BPA-free and heat resistant!
Would black castor oil work the same ?
The are similar :)
Waste of Oil...and
NO Castor Oil PLASTIC BOTTLE...🤷♀️🤔🤷♀️thanks for the demo❤
glad you liked the demo
Can this fix a bladder prolapse?
Although you might see some minimal changes in prolapse symptoms due to the positive impact to your autonomic nervous system, I would not think that castor oil packs would fix a prolapse. I would be most beneficial for you to be evaluated by a pelvic floor physical therapist to determine your best strategies. In the mean time, improving diaphragmatic breathing and postural adjustments can make a huge difference in managing prolapse symptoms. Check out this video on diaphragmatic breathing tips: th-cam.com/video/i20Ma9tEJHA/w-d-xo.html
Can I use plastic wrap directly on the oil?
Hey...I wouldn't recommend doing--it's gonna be messy and not very comfortable. One of the benefits of doing this for yourself is to help you relax and shift your body into "rest and digest" state.
If you're looking for something a little more convenient, check out shop.queenofthethrones.com/inspirepelvicpt. The castor oil packs are super convenient and easy to apply without all the extra steps!
Best time for this pack? Morning or night?
Night…:)
i think those puppy pads have a chemical on them to make the puppies "go" on it , I would research that before using it
Would just rubbing castor oil into the skin be beneficial at all? I don’t think I’d be able to commit to the time
yes, there would be some benefit in that approach!
What if I'm using unbleached organic cheese cloth
Absolutely...just be aware that castor oil is thick and can be messy, so just extra care not to ruin your clothes/linens! :)
Is it okay to put on at bedtime and keep on all night, is there a time limit to leave it on, should I wash off after the treatment? I would be using it to increase lymphatic drainage and liver detox. Thank you!!
Lots of people report leaving packs on overnight without issue. Castor oil is not pulling anything from your body, only sinking deep into the tissue to support your body's own natural healing processes :)
Wait, I understood it should be in a glass dark bottle, organic, cold-pressed, hexane-free. Your bottle does not appear to be that
@@janevanderburg7454 thanks for the comment. I agree that oil stored in dark glass bottle is best. However, in this video I wanted to demonstrate how getting started with castor oil packs doesn’t have to be complicated or costly.
Will this work and help capsular contracture located under the pectoralis muscle?
Not knowing too much about what you have going on I'm gonna be a little cautious about confirming whether or not it would help. It's one of those situations where "it couldn't hurt"...here's what we know about castor oil: it is a natural anti-inflammatory & it helps your body heals itself more efficiently.

@lq4657 We honestly have bigger fish to fry than grammer. Some people are fighting for their life.😌 Plus some of us have wide fingers that don't always click the key we planned on.
Will it help with diabetes?
That is a great question! Here is what we know about castor oil packs...they will support your body so that it can better perform Liver detox, Lymphatic drainage, and Colon cleansing, which are crucial components of your body being able to fight disease. My daughter has DM1 and we have found that using castor oil packs help to support her body normal functions, which make it just a little easier to manage her numbers. It also helps her reduce bloating, reduce painful periods, and overall hormone balance!
How about hemorrhoids
Personally, I wouldn't apply castor oil directly on the hemorrhoids, but placing the castor oil pack over the liver 1 hour before bedtime, especially during the follicular phase of your cycle can support liver detox. Use that time to focus on diaphragmatic breathing/meditation, be intentional about relaxing your body and mind. Then, after ovulation, move the castor pack to cover the lower abdomen/pelvis 1 hour or leave it over night while you also work to allow your body and mind to relax. I am a pelvic health physical therapist, and it is common to find an overactive or "tight" pelvic floor with hemorrhoids, so working on relaxing those muscles is essential. Other things to think about are bowel habits, potty positioning, morning routine--all to avoid constipation and excess straining!
How can this work? Very strange. I have been trying to understand it since quite a while. That's strange!
Hey there! What questions do you have? Maybe I can help :)
Is it ok to have castor oil in a plastic bottle?
Dark glass. Oil can dissolve plastics.
Plastics, electric heating pads!...both considered very negative for health. WILL CANCEL benefits of castor oil.
I only use glass bottles now that I am aware & I am more careful about what I put on my body these days
Is that castor oil in a glass bottle?
The castor oil in this video is not in a glass bottle.
Why do you promote one that is in a plastic bottle when Castor Oil absorbs what it touches?
That’s a good question-one that I’ve addressed many times here. I agree with you that there are better/cleaner ways to do castor packs. But many people are looking for strategies that they can apply immediately without spending money to get started. That’s what this video is meant to do. I personally use Queen of the Thrones products exclusively now, but I also benefited from using the homemade ones just as I demonstrated in this video :)
The castor oil should be organic, cold pressed, hexane free and in a GLASS DARK bottle, not plastic.
Would this also help with fibroids?
Yes, castor oil has been shown to help reduce fibroids!
Please how long can the castor oil be used to reduce fibroid size of 11cm?
@@celestineadumensah6701 That is difficulty to say with certainty. There are so many factors that should be considered when supporting your body's ability to heal itself. When you are implementing a holistic approach, you should also consider things like clean eating, sleep hygiene, stress management, hydration, physical activity. Generally speaking, if the fibroids have been present for a long time, you could expect it to take longer to heal. Please also note that I am not giving you medical advice, and I would also recommend that you consult either your PCP or seek out a functional medicine practitioner who can also monitor your medical status. However, I would recommend that if you are going to give castor oil packs a try then be consistent and apply the packs at least 3x/week for a minimum of 3 months and then reassess where you are.
For severe fibroids I had a uterine embolization. I hope the castor oil does resolve it for you.
Genuinely asking ... why would you put plastic, especially with heat on your body ... castor oil is a strong carrier oil and will pull the toxins from the plastic into your system
I agree with you that they are superior products/techniques in castor oil packs-I am a big fan of Queen of Thrones products. However, my goal was to demonstrate simple ways to get started without feeling overwhelmed or pressured to buy additional products.
Castor oil reduce ovary cyst ..????????
yes. place pack over the liver during your follicular phase, over lower ab/pelvis during luteal phase. also good to do a thyroid pack everyday for 1 hour. Be consistent & allow your body time to heal. Check out these products if you would like to simplify the process: shop.queenofthethrones.com/inspirepelvicpt

1. Don’t use low quality oil
2. Don’t skip a skin patch test
3. Don’t apply too much oil
4. Don’t use while pregnant
5. Don’t use while menstruating
6. Don’t apply heat to active infections

9. Don’t ingest large quantity of castor oil
Thank you for the extra tips!
I appreciate the video but too much talking!
Increase playback speed😉
How could she explain the process without talking. I don't understand your comment.
How about hemorrhoids
Castor oil is a natural anti-inflammatory
