I first discovered the benefits of castor oil many years ago when I was first diagnosed with an underactive thyroid and have used it to great effect to help with the side effects of the medication I take and can testify to the powerful healing properties of the oil. My muscle and joint aches, thinning hair and eyebrows are a thing of the past thanks to the amazing properties of castor oil. The oil with this set is organic and hexane-free and a lovely viscous texture as it should be and you only need to use a small amount to benefit from its anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial properties. I am using it daily as a massage oil mixed with additional organic anti-inflammatory carrier oils and essential oils to help with absorption on muscles and joints and even my lower back and it keeps me pain free. I also add a couple of drops to my face oil morning and night for its additional skin benefits.

I’ve never used a neck wrap before but realising it would be of further benefit to my thyroid I knew it would be worth purchasing. The wrap itself is made of lovely soft organic cotton and cotton flannel and is very comfortable to wear. The first time I used it I applied the castor oil balm directly to my neck and thyroid and kept it on for an hour. I felt a lovely warming effect and found it very relaxing. The second time I used the oil and kept it on a little longer. I’ve now used the wrap four times and one of the remarkable effects I’ve found is that it has cleared the throat congestion I have had for some time and also the tenderness in the thyroid area seems to have gone. As I used to often wake during the night due to the congestion I find I am now sleeping better and for longer. Castor oil is truly one of nature’s miracle and I would never be without it.

I love this set and will continue to use it regularly.
