Carrier Massage Oils

Carrier Massage Oils

Natural help with lymphatic drainage due to lymph node removal (Post-Mastectomy Lymphedema)?

My grandmother had her lymph nodes removed along with her mastectomy and has developed Post Mastectomy Lymphedema. Her left arm is extremely swollen with fluids. She was told to massage it and try to keep it elevated. I have been searching for “natural” ways to help her with this. I know that grapefruit oil is supposed to help with the fluid buildup and I saw this forum saying that castor oil helped with swollen lymph nodes. I was wondering if castor oil could be used as a carrier oil. Would this help with her drainage like it does for the swollen lymph nodes??? Also are there blends that are more effective than grapefruit oil alone? If so what are the amounts that should be used?

Take her to a physical therapist who specializes in this to show her how to manage this properly. You may also be able to find a manual lymph drainage massage therapist who would know more. I am always amazed that doctors don’t send people in after surgery for PT and massage.

You have to be careful because she doesn’t have lymph nodes to help get rid of the fluids. She probably doesn’t have swollen lymph nodes but just back up because of a lack of them.

There are also massage therapists who specialize in oncology massage that might know more about this.

Description

Jojoba Golden Oil

Botanical Name: Simmondsia chinensis
.
Description: Jojoba Golden is a favorite carrier oil. In actuality, it is a liquid wax. It closely resembles the sebum of the skin, and is rich in vitamin E. This promotes a glowing complexion. The golden variety of Jojoba may alter color and odors in cosmetics. It is also important to note that Jojoba may go cloudy in cool temperatures. It will return to its clear state with warming. Purchases of entire drums can also expect some clouding near the end of the drum. This is natural as Phospholipids (natural components of most vegetable oils) hydrate and precipitate out of suspension. The sediment is actually extremely high in beneficial vitamin E and will only create problems if the oil is heated to extreme temperatures where they will darken and precipitate out of suspension. Any sediment can be decanted out wherever practical.
.
Aromatic Description: Jojoba Golden has a pleasant, soft odor.
Common Uses: Jojoba Golden can be added to other carrier oils in order to extend shelf lives, and has become a common oil in the aromatherapy industries because of it’s excellent skin care properties. The golden variety of Jojoba is less desired in cosmetic manufacturing; nonetheless, in applications that aren’t sensitive to discoloration or odour, Golden Jojoba is still commonly used. Massage therapists may use small amounts in their carrier oil blends, but as it will clog pores, its application is limited.

Description

Grape seeds contain several antioxidants, including polyphenols, including proanthocyanidins, which show some health benefits. In particular, sufficiently high amounts of resveratrol occur that it can be extracted commercially. Despite this, these antioxidants are not likely to be present in significant amounts in the cold-pressed grape seed oil itself, since proanthocyanidins are polar molecules and therefore insoluble in lipids. Antioxidants from grape skins and seeds are more concentrated in products such as grape juice and red wine.

Possible medicinal benefits

Rich in Antioxidants
Heart healthy cooking oil
Salad Dressing ingredient

Cosmetics

Grape seed oil is a preferred cosmetic ingredient for damaged and stressed tissues, possessing regenerative and restructuring qualities which allow for strong control of skin moisturization. It can help skin retain the normal structure of epithelium cells and nerve cells via supporting the cell membranes. It is noted to be especially effective for repair of the skin around the eyes. Used as an all-over skin moisturizer, grape seed oil is known to reduce the look of stretch marks. A light, thin oil, grape seed oil leaves a glossy film over the skin when used as a carrier oil for essential oils in aromatherapy. It contains more linoleic acid than many other carrier oils. Grape seed oil is also usable as a lubricant for face shaving.In addition, grape seed oil applied to the feet each morning clears up many foot problems such as itching, scaly flaking and odor.

Cooking

In addition to its high smoking point, grape seed oil has other positive attributes in relation to cooking.
