CASTOR OIL THERAPY

About Castor Oil

Castor oil comes from the castor seed. The castor seed plant is native to India. Centuries ago, the plant was referred to as “Palma Christi” because the leaves were said to resemble the hand of Christ. This association most likely arose from the plant’s unique healing abilities. The use of castor oil has been known for thousands of years. It can be traced back to ancient times in Egypt, China, Persia, Africa, Greece, Rome, and eventually 17th Century Europe and the Americas. Historically, it has had a variety of uses, from lubricating leather and machinery to relieving ailments of the body both inside and out. You may even remember your grandmother insisting castor oil is the cure for whatever ails you! It wasn’t until a man named Edgar Cayce, the 20th Century American prophet, brought the use of the castor oil pack into the American vocabulary.

Castor oil is one of the most versatile healing oils. Used topically, it has had amazing success clearing stubborn skin conditions like blemishes, inflammations, and ringworm. When used as a pack it is known to improve elimination, assimilation, coordination and lymphatic circulation. It works by drawing lodged toxins out of the body.
