Castor Oil Pack
Castor Oil Pack
Castor oil wraps offer a range of health benefits that have been celebrated for centuries. One of the primary advantages of using castor oil wraps is their ability to reduce inflammation and alleviate pain. When applied to the skin, castor oil penetrates deeply, stimulating the lymphatic system and promoting circulation. This can be particularly beneficial for individuals suffering from arthritis, muscle soreness, or joint pain. The anti-inflammatory properties of ricinoleic acid, a major component of castor oil, make it an effective natural remedy for reducing swelling and discomfort.
