A question was asked about instructions for a castor oil pack. Since it was a page back I thought I would post here, just to bring it forward. The full page is here:


http://www.edgarcayce.org/castor_oil_heals.asp


The part of the page for instructions are:

Creating a Castor Oil Pack

Materials Needed:

Wool flannel cloth: (Cotton flannel may be used if you are allergic to wool.)
Wash and dry the cloth before its initial use to remove any impurities. The size of the cloth needed for use varies. For an abdominal pack constructed for the average person, after folding the cloth several times, the cloth would be about 10” in width to 14” in length. (Refer directly to the readings to determine the number of times the cloth must be folded. Generally, the more heat that is to be applied, the more times the cloth must be folded, thereby requiring more cloth.) You may need two cloths.

Cold-pressed castor oil (one pint)

Plastic sheeting
Potential sources include plastic shower curtains, plastic tablecloths, large garbage bags, recycled dry cleaning bags etc.

Plastic food wrap

Electric heating pad or hot water bottle

Two old towels (These may get stained with castor oil.)
One beach towel or very large bath towel
One regular bath towel

Safety pins (two or more)

Baking Soda

Optional Materials:

Washing soda (sal soda) may be used during laundering to remove some of the accidental castor oil stains on bedclothes

Olive oil (two tablespoons per treatment or as indicated in the readings)

For additional information, please refer to the listing of Edgar Cayce books on health and healing or the circulating files. Circulating files may be purchased directly from the ARE or loaned to members. Consult the supplier’s list for information on obtaining products mentioned in the readings


Directions for Use of Castor Oil Packs:


1. Protect the bed with plastic sheeting. Place the beach towel upon the plastic sheeting.

2. Turn the heating pad on to a medium heat setting. Cover the pad generously with plastic food wrap. Place the flannel on the wrapping and pour castor oil slowly over the cloth, one layer at a time until it becomes well saturated, but not dripping. If there is excess oil, wring it out and return the saturated cloth to the covered heating pad. Heat the castor oil pack on medium heat for about 10 minutes. Do not leave unattended.

3. Place the castor oil pack and plastic food wrap on the body, with the warmed flannel next to the skin, using the directions for position as indicated by the readings. (For example, the readings indicate that the castor oil pack be placed on the right side for intestinal dis-ease and the left side for pancreatic dis-ease.) Place the heating pad on top of the covered castor oil pack.

4. Wrap the smaller towel about the body lengthwise to cover the castor oil pack and heating pad. You may want to use the safety pins to secure everything in its place.

5. The heating pad setting may be increased, but do not heat the pack beyond your comfort level. Do not fall asleep while using the heating pad! Continue the treatment for 1 to 2 hours or as directed by the readings.

¨Do not apply heat if you are experiencing abdominal pain. Seek medical advice for diagnosis of abdominal pain.
¨Heating pads should not be using during pregnancy, during menstrual flow, or if you are experiencing gaseous stomach or intestinal conditions.

6. The skin in the treated area should be cleansed afterwards with a solution of one cup of warm water and one teaspoon of baking soda.

7. Store the castor oil pack in a glass jar or plastic bag between treatments. You may wish to refrigerate the pack.

8. Refer to the specific readings or circulating files for the proper sequence of treatments and whether or not the treatment should be followed with two tablespoons olive oil taken orally.

9. For best results, use the castor oil packs in a quiet relaxed setting without distractions. You may enjoy reading spiritual and uplifting materials. Maintain a meditative, prayerful, and expectant attitude. Keep positive thoughts.




Hope this helps.
