Welcome to our video where I am thrilled to share one of my top recommendations for supporting reproductive health – the use of castor oil packs. Castor oil packs are a fantastic self-care tool that can significantly enhance uterine health, fallopian tube health, ovarian health, liver health, and digestive care.
What is a Castor Oil Pack?
A castor oil pack involves the application of therapeutic castor oil onto a cloth, which is then placed over the area of the body you wish to support. In terms of reproductive health, it is typically placed over the lower abdomen or the liver area. The beauty of this treatment is that it allows the castor oil to be absorbed and penetrate deeply into those areas, providing targeted support where it is needed most.
Benefits of Castor Oil Packs
Enhanced Circulation
Castor oil has the power to enhance circulation in the reproductive system, or where the pack is placed. This increased blood flow helps bring fresh, oxygen-rich, and nutrient-loaded blood to the region while aiding in detoxification and cleansing. This is especially advantageous for those dealing with uterine fibroids, endometriosis, heavy or light periods, and those seeking to enhance egg health.
Promotes Lymphatic Drainage
Castor oil promotes lymphatic draining, one of the body’s primary detoxification systems. Castor oil is one of the few external therapies that can stimulate the lymphatic system to drain, which is exceptionally beneficial in reducing inflammation, aiding detoxification, and supporting reproductive health.
Anti-Inflammatory Properties
The anti-inflammatory properties of castor oil have been proven to help alleviate inflammation in the area where it is applied. Considering many fertility issues (PCOS, endometriosis, uterine fibroids, failed IVF) are linked to high inflammatory markers, reducing inflammation is undoubtedly a priority for those looking to improve reproductive health.
Pain Relief
Another impressive feature of castor oil packs is the ability to alleviate discomfort and pain. Castor oil accomplishes this through a compound that reduces pain-causing prostaglandins and increases pain-reducing prostaglandins. This is beneficial, especially for those suffering from endometriosis or painful periods.
Soothing Effect
Finally, castor oil packs serve as a calming self-care tool that soothes the nervous system.
How to Apply a Therapeutic Castor Oil Pack
Now, let’s look at how to apply a therapeutic castor oil pack with our recommended Womb Care Therapeutic Castor Oil Kit. This kit contains a formula I have specially crafted, combining organic high-quality castor oil with therapeutic-grade essential oils.
Included in the kit is an organic cloth for applying the oil to your womb or liver area, as well as a wrap that allows you to apply the pack and go about your day, trapping your body heat and enabling the castor oil to penetrate deeper.
Suggested usage is 30 minutes to an hour, 3 to 4 times minimum per week. Overnight application is also safe and beneficial, especially for those experiencing endometriosis, cysts or other conditions.
