Hi, I have used Castor oil packs for quite awhile fall and winter of 2006.
this was from my chiropractor. I stopped because it didn't seem to do that
much good for the pain except when packs first put on. a little. Don't
know if it was the castor oil or the heat. Maybe should try it again. Ruth

Ruth,
I just got an email from Health Freedom Resources selling castor oil. Do
you
have any castor oil or have you already tried putting some on your abdomen?
Here is an excerpt. Note they mention intestinal obstructions:
Dr. McGarey has successfully used the castor oil packs in clinical settings
for numerous conditions, including liver and gall bladder problems,
abscesses, headaches, appendicitis, epilepsy, hemorrhoids, constipation,
intestinal obstructions, hyperactivity in children, and to avert threatened
abortions in pregnant women. In The Oil That Heals, Dr. McGarey says that
Edgar Cayce described at least thirty different physiological functions
that
could be changed for the better through the use of castor oil applied
topically, mostly by the use of the packs.
Prepare a flannel cloth which is two or three thicknesses when folded and
which measures about eight inches in width and ten to twelve inches in
length after it is folded. This is the size needed for abdominal
application-other areas may need a different size pack, as seems
applicable.
Pour castor oil into a pan and soak the cloth in the oil. Wring out the
cloth so that it is wet but not drippy with the castor oil (or simply pour
castor oil onto the pack so it is soaked). Apply the cloth to the area
which
needs treatment. Most often, the pack should be placed so it covers the
area
of the liver.
Protection against soiling bed clothing can be made by putting a sheet
underneath the body. Then a plastic covering should be applied over the
soaked flannel cloth. On top of the plastic, place a heating pad and turn
it
up to "medium" to begin, then to "high" if the body tolerates it. It helps
to wrap a large towel around the body to hold the pack snugly in place,
using large safety pins on the towel. The pack should remain in place
between an hour to an hour and a half.
The skin can be cleansed afterwards, if desired, by using water which is
prepared as follows: to a quart of water, add two teaspoons of baking soda.
Use this to cleanse the abdomen. Keep the flannel pack wrapped in plastic
for future use. It need not be discarded after one application, but can
usually be used many times.
Jess
