Castor Oil, 4 oz.
Castor Oil, 4 oz
|
Castor Oil has been prized throughout the ages for its unique therapeutic properties. Today it is applied as a moisturizer and skin softener, for application with Castor Oil packs, as a massage oil for stiff muscles and joints, for gastrointestinal problems (see Castor Oil softgels below), and to soothe skin conditions such as Eczema and Psoriasis. Castor oil applied externally in the form of "packs" is a popular holistic therapy recommended by health care practitioners. These packs are applied over the abdomen to improve assimilation, elimination and circulation; especially of the lymphatic system.
Baar Products' Castor Oil, also known as Palma Christi or the "Palm of Christ", is a 100% pure, cold pressed and cold processed Castor Oil without hexane. It has the added benefit of being solar crafted!
The naturally occurring fats and waxes found in Castor Oil give it its unique properties. Because this oil is minimally filtered, the appearance of a haze or sediment may occur even after the oil is filtered. This "cloudy" appearance is often noticed during colder temperatures and during winter months. This does not affect the quality or benefits this amazing oil has to offer.
Baar's Castor Oil is endorsed by Edgar Cayce's Association For Research and Enlightenment (A.R.E.), the Edgar Cayce Foundation, the A.R.E. Health Center & Spa, and the Cayce-Reilly School of Massotherapy.

Castor Oil Packs (Suggest larger size Bottles for Use with Packs. See options below.)
A common area to apply the Castor Oil pack is on the abdomen, extending from the lower part of the rib cage to the the pubic or groin area, sitting slightly to the right to cover the liver. Application is usually for 1 to 2 hours. A heating pad is placed on top of the Castor Oil pack to keep it very warm during application.
