Guest guest Posted January 29, 2004 Report Share Posted January 29, 2004 Dear One Love, Regarding the Ayurvedic Cleanse: The instructions for the Sunflower oil rub calls for " 8 ounces of warm sunflower oil to your body from head to toe, rubbing it in well... " Well, I read what it says -- but I have a lot of hair covering the top of my head and think I might run into some trouble if I have to put oil on it. Not to mention for five days straight. Also, I assume this means oil on one's face, too, where many of us are reluctant to put oil. Finally, the sole of the feet sounds like not a good venture for oil, either. Please advise whether we are to take the instructions absolutely literally. Thank you. PC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 31, 2004 Report Share Posted January 31, 2004 Hi PC If you want to skip massaging sunflower oil on the top of your head plus face and soles you can. However, it is traditional to cover these areas. The purpose of the oil is to help dislodge toxins in the tissues. Shampoo will remove the oil from your hair. You should be in a sitting position if you apply oil to the soles.
