Organic Castor Oil Pack with Wool Flannel Cloth
Ancient Ritual for Modern Healing
There is an old-world wisdom in castor oil—a golden, viscous elixir once revered by folk healers and midwives for its remarkable ability to draw, soften, and restore. Our Castor Oil Pack Set invites you to return to this timeless practice with intention and care.
Included in each set is a reusable wool flannel applicator cloth, chosen for its ability to retain warmth and allow the oil to deeply penetrate the skin. This therapeutic ritual is a gift to the body’s inner rivers—offering relief, movement, and healing where stagnation once lingered.
When applied externally over the abdomen or joints, castor oil packs are traditionally used to:
-
Support digestion and ease the discomfort of bloating or sluggish bowels
-
Soothe menstrual cramps and pelvic congestion
-
Reduce inflammation in sore joints or tender tissues
-
Promote liver detoxification and gentle internal cleansing
-
Stimulate lymphatic drainage, helping move waste from the body
-
Ease fibroids and cysts, softening hardened or congested tissue over time
This practice is quiet and restorative—best done in the stillness of evening, with a warm compress and soft music playing, or in silence while the body listens inward.
Each Pack Includes:
-
One unbleached organic wool flannel cloth (cut to size for abdominal or joint use)
-
A printed instruction guide with traditional application tips, warming methods, and frequency suggestions
-
Gentle guidance on how to care for and reuse your cloth for many treatments to come
- 16 oz amber glass bottle full of organic Cold Pressed, Unrefined, Hexane-free USDA Organic Caster Oil
Suggested Use:
Apply castor oil to the cloth and place over desired area (typically the lower abdomen or liver region). Cover with a towel or wrap, and apply heat for 30–60 minutes. Rest. Breathe. Repeat regularly as part of a holistic care ritual.
To anoint yourself with castor oil is to practice sacred tending—to soften what is hardened, to move what is stuck, and to remind the body of its deep wisdom to heal.
