How to Make a Castor Oil Pack
Gather your supplies: Mason jar, organic Castor Oil, cotton flannel, a thicker towel or plastic protective barrier to cover the cotton flannel, and a hot water bottle or an infrared heating pad. There are tons of options on Etsy for cotton flannel and leak-proof washable backing for creating packs for the thyroid, belly, etc.
1. Cut the flannel into three strips sized to suit the area of the body you are covering, and soak the flannel in castor oil in the Mason jar. Shake the jar every so often to soak all areas of the cloth.
2. Create the time and space to relax with a pack for at least an hour, or set up for overnight. Castor oil stains so set up the area with older towels or wear older clothes.
3. Place the soaked cloth strips over the area to treat. Cover with the plastic or protective barrier, and apply the heat source. Relax for an hour or more as the castor works its magic.
4. Wash the flannel strips in natural laundry soap with baking soda to remove the Castor Oil. Put clean flannel strips in the Mason jar to soak, and store it in the fridge until you are ready for another pack.
