Castor Oil packs have been used for thousands of years, but today Queen of the Thrones® has transformed the ritual into a convenient practice that can help support your self-care practice.

What can Castor Oil do for Thyroid Wellness?

How do Castor Oil Packs support thyroid health

Do you think or know you have a thyroid condition like Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, Graves’ Disease, hypothyroid, hyperthyroid, or nodules, because every day you struggle with debilitating symptoms like:

  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Fatigue
  • Weight gain
  • Constipation
  • Brain fog
  • Heartburn 
  • Gas
  • Bloating
  • Skin rashes
  • Insomnia and sleep problems

Does this sound like you? 

It’s frustrating trying to manage all these symptoms, isn’t it?

Well, instead of adding yet another supplement, what if you added a self-care tool that can work its magic from the outside in? An ancient practice that naturally supports your body and thyroid in a gentle, soothing way? This would be a dream come true, agreed?

Well keep reading because in this blog, we’ll cover everything you need to know about Castor Oil Packs and how they may support thyroid wellness.

What are Castor Oil Packs?

Castor Oil Packs might sound like the latest wellness trend, but actually they’ve been around for a long time. In fact, Castor Oil was used by the Ancient Egyptians, and it’s been a wellness practice in Traditional Chinese Medicine and Ayurveda for centuries.

It wasn’t until the early 1900s that Edgar Cayce popularized the use of Castor Oil Packs in North America and made them part of the foundation for naturopathic and functional medicine.

But on a very basic level, a Castor Oil Pack is a compress made from organic cotton soaked with Castor Oil and applied to the body. Well, as you can imagine, these early DIY packs were pretty messy especially because Castor Oil is so rich and thick and can easily stain fabrics! Not surprisingly, Castor Oil Packs eventually lost their appeal.

But Queen of the Thrones® updated this practice for the 21st century!

That’s right! We designed a Castor Oil Pack that can be used conveniently with less mess and organic materials. 

And our Castor Oil Packs were designed to fit your Liver, Pelvic, and Thyroid region comfortably so that you can wear them for longer periods of time during the day or night.

The Queen of the Thrones® Thyroid Pack, for example, is made with organic cotton and fits comfortably around your neck. The gentle pressure it provides may help calm the body since it has a warming and soothing effect. This allows the organic, hexane-free Castor Oil to penetrate deeply into the skin which may help balance inflammation1. Pretty amazing, don’t you think?

Better still – This humble practice may help support energetic flow to your thyroid to help balance hormones; something your thyroid does naturally!

Castor Oil Thyroid Packs may also help slow down or even reduce the appearance of aging skin on your neck! 

And if that weren’t enough, Castor Oil Packs integrate especially well with everything you are already doing as part of your self-care routine. In fact, because the Packs can support your thyroid directly, you might not need to take as many supplements. Just think of the money you can save! 

Thyroid Testing

Bear in mind that most medical doctors and labs only test for one thyroid hormone: TSH, but there are two other hormones that need to be measured and analyzed in order to get the full picture of your thyroid function. 

Unfortunately, some restrictive health insurance policies don’t cover the cost of full thyroid exams, leaving many people begging for a test that measures T3 and T4. 

But, you can ask your provider to write an order for you that you can then take to any lab testing facility in your area.

You can ask for blood panels that include important metabolic markers like:

  • CBC (complete blood count)
  • Liver and kidney enzymes
  • Mineral and acid base balance
  • Inflammation markers
  • And a full thyroid panel

So, now that we’ve established what Castor Oil Packs do, let’s get into how they may support your thyroid.

How do Castor Oil Packs support your thyroid?

Signs of thyroid conditions by Queen of the Thrones

Like your liver and other organs, your thyroid operates at its full potential only when you are relaxed and the rest of your body is balanced.

So, when you wear your Castor Oil Thyroid Pack you’re not just supporting your thyroid, you’re supporting other systems and organs as well, because every system in your body is connected.

When worn daily, they may naturally support your hormones, help balance inflammation, and enhance circulation via nitric oxide promotion2, 3.

More specifically, the softness and weight of the pack provides gentle pressure over the thyroid area. Just like pressing the escape button on your computer, the Castor Oil Pack instantly calms your system with gentle compression. In fact, regular daily practice may help retrain the parasympathetic state or rest-and digest mode.

This may help promote your ‘love and connection’ hormone oxytocin4, 5, similar to when you get a big warm hug. And speaking of relaxed states, oxytocin naturally reduces cortisol (your stress hormone)6.

Plus, thyroid packs may also stimulate specific dermatomes and Chinese meridians that are thought to support organ function.

But now that we’ve covered how thyroid Castor Oil Packs may be supportive, you might be wondering: 

Who should wear a Castor Oil Pack for Thyroid?

Well, the short answer is anyone may benefit from these packs. They aren’t contraindicated with any condition or medication – unless you’re pregnant, in which case you should not use Castor Oil or Castor Oil Packs at all, just to be safe!

A Castor Oil Pack may be a wonderful complement to your self-care routine if you have a thyroid disorder or condition, such as:

  • Goiter
  • Thyroid Cancer
  • Hypothyroid, 
  • Hyperthyroid 
  • Hashimoto’s thyroiditis 
  • Grave’s Disease 
  • Thyroid nodules
  • Swollen thyroid
  • Hormonal imbalances
  • Throat problems like hoarseness

Please always reach out to your doctor first before starting any new practice.

How do you wear a Thyroid Castor Oil Pack?

Easy! Just follow this two-step process, and make this part of your daily, self-care routine!

Step One: Apply 1 tbsp of organic Castor Oil to the soft organic cotton flannel side of your Pack. 

*Always add your Organic Castor Oil to the middle of the pack to help keep the oil from the seams, as the Pack is not 100% impermeable.

Step Two: Place the soft cotton flannel side of your Castor Oil Pack over your thyroid (at the front of your neck) and tie it in place with the soft, adjustable straps.

Then, wear your Castor Oil Pack every day for 1 hour or more. Just don’t wear it to bed because the adjustable strap could be uncomfortable during sleep and may be a choking hazard.

Your Complete Guide On Castor Oil Packs for the Pelvis & Hips

In the depths of her being, women hold precious treasures – her ovaries, uterus and fallopian tubes. These delicate, yet mighty reproductive organs are responsible for releasing hormones that whisper softly to our bodies, guiding us through the mysterious monthly dance of our menstrual cycle.  For every woman, the pelvic area is a sacred and beautiful part of her being and hormonal health, a wonder of nature that gives rise to life, love and all the magic that lies within. Here you’ll find out how to use Queen of the Thrones® Castor Oil Packs for nourishing the delicate area of your hips, uterus, reproductive organs, and everything in between. The best part? Using a Pelvic Castor Oil Pack may help you support hormone balance naturally throughout your monthly cycle. Curious to know how?   

Can Castor Oil Packs support hormonal and reproductive health?

You dread your period because you know the inevitable cramps, back pain, and fatigue that makes you curl up in the fetal position are on their way, right? Worse than that, with hormonal fluctuations kicking in, you feel moody and disconnected from your body, making you (even more) stressed. Is this you? And if you’ve been diagnosed with endometriosis, PCOS, ovarian cysts, uterine fibroids, or other hormonal conditions, everything is amplified. Agreed? A nightly Pelvic Castor Oil Pack may help you support… 
Queen of the Thrones Pelvic Region Illnesses

1. Balanced hormonal health and less stress

You see, the soft compression of a Pelvic Castor Oil Pack and the feeling of oil on your skin helps calm your system and promotes the release of feel-good hormones, including:  
  • Dopamine1, 2, a hormone that makes you feel satisfied and helps connect your emotions with your nerve cells.
  • Oxytocin3, 4, often referred to as the “love and connection” hormone – it makes you feel all warm and fuzzy. You naturally get it from hugs, love, touch, gentle compression or bonding with a new balance.

Plus, oxytocin has been shown to help lower cortisol (your stress hormone) and balance blood pressure5, leading to healthy levels of progesterone.  Why does this matter? Well, studies show a connection between higher anxiety levels and high progesterone levels6, and healthy levels of progesterone are key for maintaining balanced moods during your monthly menstrual cycle.  Castor Oil Packs may also support reproductive health, as they have been shown to help with…

2. Balanced inflammation and deep sleep

You see, inflammation is a common cause of pain, bloating, irregular periods, and abnormal vaginal discharge. It’s also a factor in polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS)7, uterine fibroids8, endometriosis9, infertility10, postpartum and menopause.  But, your Pelvic Castor Oil Pack may help support inflammation balance and pain relief throughout all stages of your hormonal life.
Curious to know how this is possible? You see, Castor Oil contains ricinoleic acid, a natural anti-inflammatory11, 12. So, when you pair that with your cozy Pelvic Castor Oil Pack, it’s like a weighted blanket for all your reproductive organs so you can naturally relax and wind down for a deep sleep13 14. You see, just like how an ice pack reduces swelling and inflammation when you have an injury, your Pelvic Castor Oil Pack is your new way to balance the pain you get from inflammation, but without the cold! You can also add an abdominal massage with a Fascia Body Roller to support flow and relaxation when your hormones are causing a raging storm inside your body. Castor Oil Packs can also help you stop dreading your periods by providing you with…

3. Natural period pain support and a regular monthly cycle

Do you struggle with terrible period cramps and ever wonder why they happen? You see, menstrual cramps occur due to contractions of smooth muscles of your uterus working to expel blood.  Did you know that Castor Oil may help by supporting the smooth muscles15 of your digestive tract and uterus?  Why does this matter
Well, have you noticed that you poo more often before and during your period? That’s because the same hormones and messengers stimulate your digestive tract to move and your uterus to expel the blood16. So, by acting on your smooth muscles, Castor Oil Packs may even help with your cramping because it naturally shifts your body and muscles into a state of rest and relaxation. But remember, rest and relaxation take practice, so consistency is key with your Castor Oil Pelvic Pack. Curious how you can use Castor Oil Packs while intentionally following the moon’s phases to support your monthly cycle?

Common questions

  1. What if I’m on medications, hormone replacement therapy, birth control pills, IUDs, or supplements? Castor Oil Packs are safely combined with any medication and supplement as there are no known contraindications or interactions with medication. They are likely safe to use with hormone replacements, TTC medicines, birth control pills, and IUDs.   2. Why can’t I just drink Castor Oil or rub it on my skin? Taken orally, Castor Oil is a stimulant laxative that makes you have to poop. ​​Simply rubbing it on your skin and wearing a T-shirt overtop will only gives you about 50% of the benefits. You need a pack for compression to help move your body into the relaxed state where liver detox, lymphatic drainage, and colon cleansing are supported. 3. Can I use an old piece of cloth or an organic bamboo pack? ONLY use organic cotton, wool or linen for your Castor Oil Pack! Other materials like ‘organic’ bamboo are highly processed with chemicals. Old clothing may be made with harsh dyes, bleach, and flame retardants that aren’t ideal to absorb into your body.   4. Isn’t it messy? By nature, Castor Oil is an oil so it will stain clothing and fabrics. This is why we created this LESS-mess pack. No, it’s not entirely messless, but it’s LESS messy than the old way. 5. Do I have to add heat? Queen of the Thrones® Castor Oil Packs are engineered to hold in your body heat naturally, so additional heat is not needed.

Est. reading time: 9 minutes.

So, you love the thought of prescribing the Seed Cycling Protocol for hormone imbalance because you and I believe that it’s best to “Let thy food be thy medicine and thy medicine be thy food.” The famous quote of our father of medicine, Hippocrates. Have you heard this before?

But then, you and I, we also live by the words of Paracelsus, “The dose makes things poison.” Agreed?

Seed Cycling Protocol for hormone imbalance not recommended

So, here’s our conundrum when prescribing the seed cycling protocol. Are you ready?

From your clinical and coaching experience, you know 2 very important facts…

Food can take a long time to act as medicine

Your patients, and you, we all want a quick “feel good now” solution even though we are in the know that hormonal healing takes time, especially with food.

Frequent exposure to the same foods could create poison.

Too much of a good thing can become problematic, especially when it comes to the gut, right? You see, eating the same foods over and over again can be harmful by creating inflammation and leaky gut1.

Eating flax and pumpkin seeds for two weeks straight and then for the same period of time eating sesame and sunflower seeds can either lead or aggravate an immune reactivity to a food, magnification of other coexisting leaky gut, hormonal, metabolic syndrome and lead to autoimmunity.2.

So, it begs the question…

Is seed cycling as great as it’s claimed to be?

Or is there another way that you can help hormonally unbalanced women set themselves on the right path naturally?

Cycling with a Castor Oil Pack for Liver, Fertility & Thyroid is a way you will learn how to support your hormonal body clock naturally, to seed cycle without eating seeds.

Rotating Queen of the Thrones Castor Oil Packs to reset your hormone imbalance

The result?

  1. Hormone balance support without triggering or aggravating leaky gut syndrome or other gut health problems and autoimmunity.
  2. The support of gut healing from both the OUTSIDE IN using a Castor Oil Packs for Liver, Fertility & Thyroid and from the INSIDE OUT with food and supplements. Amazing agreed?

This is huge because it widens your ability to prescribe more superfoods like seeds and other foods they miss but can’t eat due to food sensitivities because therapeutically they had to restrict.

The best part? You’ll be helping your people “feel better” symptomatically, and socially instead of isolating them with avoidance, and restrictions because of a leaky gut, gut health conditions and their hormone imbalance.

Queen of the Thrones Single Seed Cycle help you heal your Gut

This is your chance to expand your thoughts on this popular trending protocol: “Single” Seed Cycling. You’ll have an understanding how food can be medicine, but also poison, and the impact of helping to heal the gut from the outside in with Castor Oil Packs, while healing from the inside out with foods and supplements. Are you ready?

Now, are you wondering…

How can I improve compliance with Castor Oil Packs?

Let’s begin by acknowledging that it’s never just one prescription that’s working to regulate your patients’ hormonal clocks.

You see, it’s always a combination of food, supplements and health practices like the Queen of the Thrones® Castor Oil Packs for Liver, Fertility & Thyroid.

These all synergistically work together. Healing from the inside out and outside in. Makes sense, agreed?

But why?

The seed cycling protocol is a time investment and most of your people (and you) are unable to invest the time to grind, soak, store, carry around with them, or even remember to follow the daily multi-step protocol. Can you relate?

It’s difficult to reinforce a health habit that is excessively repetitive, cumbersome and boring to the taste buds. I mean, how many seed bars can you eat?

In effect, too much of eating the same thing reduces your biological want to eat seeds3 and with delayed benefit and the potential to create or enhance already inflammation prone modern day guts, aggravating food sensitivities and leaky gut syndrome4, this protocol was in need of reinventing.

So, because our modern day lives are busy, and with the nature of integrative and functional medical practice, sometimes taking old practices and principles and integrating them into modern day life isn’t always easy to apply in the here and the now. Would you agree?

Plus, habit substitutions in order to get compliance must be simple, unlike the old way of doing Castor Oil Packs, that was all too cumbersome and no one does it! And it only looks bad on the practitioner who prescribed it.

Rebalance your hormonal health with Queen of the Thrones Castor Oil Packs

How to “Single” Seed Cycle without eating seeds.

The inventor of the “Single” Seed Cycling protocol is a North American Naturopathic Doctor. She had been recommended both the Castor Oil Pack becoming a practitioner and had never done it because it was too cumbersome.

She couldn’t eat the seeds because it aggravated her gut problems. Does this sound like you?

Finally, she tried both. She started with Castor Oil Packs and then after some gut healing (including many other supportive treatments), she was able to try the seed cycling protocol and found benefit.

However, when she began recommending it to patients, they just didn’t comply. Most didn’t even try it! Her patients felt bad, and she felt worse. Have you been here before?

So, she created the easy way with Queen of the Thrones® Castor Oil Packs, which improved patient compliance and results.

If you’ve prescribed the seed cycling protocol and/or Castor Oil Packs for foundational care, you know compliance isn’t great. For certain people, they are aggravated with the seed cycling, and therefore your follow up results aren’t great either.

Practitioners should prescribe the single seed cycling protocol and Queen of the Thrones Castor Oil Packs for hormone imbalance

Using Castor Oil Packs for Liver & Thyrod at the right time of day can enhance your body clock’s ability to do its job best. Amazing, agreed?

Kind of like how it’s better to go to sleep at night when the moon is out. You know this because your patients who have circadian rhythm dysfunction are the ones who struggle the most in their health because their body clock is off, right?

You see, “Single” Seed Cycling is a tool that can be used in all three hormonally-unbalanced stages of life, no matter the cycle dysfunction or how off the body clock is.
