Castor Oil Pack Testimony: How I Relieved My Chronic Pain With Castor Oil

Castor oil packs are not something new, as it has been used in the olden days to treat various ailments including chronic pain, whether it is knee pain, muscle pain, or back pain. Castor oil is made from castor beans and is commonly used in folk and traditional medicine worldwide. As simple as castor oil may look, it is packed with tons of awesome benefits and the uses are endless.

Years ago, I started to have lower back pain, radiating up my spine. I would treat it with pain medication but it would eventually come back. I was getting really frustrated with this constant pain that seems to never go away for long.

I started doing some research and learned that castor oil had much more benefits than just for skin and hair. If you read my other blog posts, you will see how it helped with bald spots, thinning hair, and also helped to grow my hair.

I found a website that’s just dedicated to natural home remedies where people shared their real life experiences and testimonies from using castor oil packs for pain. I was intrigued with all these information that was new to me. I sat up late into the night reading and soaking up all the information I could find.

I decided that I would try this magical castor oil and see if people were just exaggerating. I didn’t have a castor oil pack at the time, so I got creative and made my own with what I had at home.

I applied the organic castor oil to my back, making sure to apply some along the spine. I then placed my homemade castor oil pack on my back and let it sit for at least an hour.

I got back pain relief from using the castor oil pack almost immediately. I couldn’t believe how easily it worked. However, the pain came back in a few months time.  That was still great for me since I got to experience no back pain for months.

Now I started to take it more seriously, so I kept using it whenever I felt the pain coming back, which each time the pain was less severe. I even passed this on to one of my sisters who had back pain, but I don’t think she used it.

Anyway, it’s been more than six months now and my chronic back pain is gone. I don’t know if there was inflammation in my spine or something else was wrong, but all I know is whatever it was, the castor oil pack took care of it for me and I’m so grateful.

I am so blown away by this magical oil that got rid of my pain so I decided to pass on this information that may be useful to someone else who is experiencing these debilitating chronic pain in their daily lives. Feel free to share your experiences and testimonies in the comment section.

Meaningful Holiday Gifts for Your Disabled or Bedridden Loved Ones

When life hits you or your loved ones, you have to deal with it the best way you can. Love doesn’t stop when someone you care for becomes sick or bedridden. In fact, that’s when the love grows stronger, even though being a caretaker to a bedridden loved one can be stressing at times.

During the holiday season, you may be wondering what are the best gifts to give family members or friends who are either bed-bound or in a wheelchair. Get the right gift for your loved ones with these holiday gift-giving ideas.

Meaningful Gifts for Bedridden Loved Ones

Choosing meaningful gifts for your loved ones or to give as gifts for caretakers, can take some of the load off of them. For those who are bedridden and cannot turn on their own, it is important that they are turned regularly to prevent bedsores.

Choosing a gift such as a patient turning device can help caretakers turn their loved ones more easily and prevent strain and back pain. It is also great for pulling up your loved ones when they slide down in bed at times. This is a must-have gift that will make both you and the ones you love, much more comfy and happy.

A Gift of Independence and Safety

Give your disabled loved one a balance and support device to help prevent accidental falls. This device can be attached to your loved one’s favorite couch. It has a convenient tray table that can be used for laptops, reading, eating, and other tabletop activities. This special gift will give your loved ones the joy of being independent and safe at the same time.

Make Bath Time Fun Again

As your loved one begins to become less mobile, taking a bath can be quite frustrating, and even more so for you if you are the caretaker. You can make bath time more fun by using a Sliding Transfer Bench with Swivel Seat. The padded seat, back, and armrest makes taking a bath more comfortable and less stressing.

Stress-free Hair Care for Bedridden Loved Ones

Having clean hair and scalp can make your loved one feel more relaxed and refreshed. Your loved one may not be able to wash their own hair, but you can conveniently wash their hair for them in the convenience of their bed. Just use an inflatable shampoo bowl for bedside hair washing and other hair care needs.

This inflatable shampoo bowl is also great for when you’re cutting their hair or doing hair coloring. This is yet another meaningful gift that will bring a sense of joy and make hair care for your loved ones more convenient and fun.

It just takes a little to make your loved ones know that you care. Some things that we take for granted, may mean the world to them.
