Instructions
  1. In a pan on low heat, add coconut oil and lightly sauté ginger, turmeric, lemongrass, onion and garlic. Cover for a few seconds to let steam. (Note: Ingredients should be only slightly moist from coconut oil. Use a sparing amount of water to avoid burning.)
  2. Turn off heat and let ingredients cool in separate bowl.
  3. Add essential oils and stir to combine.
  4. Lay out cloth. Place a large spoonful of mixture in the center of your cloth.
  5. Gather outside pieces of cloth to contain herbal mixture inside cloth. If desired, tie the top with yard or thread to keep closed. (Note: You’ll want ingredients to stay in the cloth while in use.)
  6. Place poultice on affected area 20–30 minutes two or three times a day.
  7. Store in the fridge and reheat in a steamer or microwave. Can be used four or five times before discarding.
