Mustard Therapy

Effect

Mustard therapy is a method of dissolving mustard in warm water and attaching it to the chest and the affected area to heal the disease.

Mustard therapy is also known as mustard poultice, and it has effects on pains such as pneumonia, cough (pleurisy, pulmonary tuberculosis, tuberculosis, cold), neuralgia, otitis media, appendicitis, hysteria, chronic fatigue, sore throat.

Method

How to make mustard poultry is as follows. 

1. First, in a suitable container, warm the same amount of hot water as normal 100g of mustard (the most effective hot water is 55 ° C , the effect decreases when it is above 70 ° C , and not more than 100 ° C or below 35 ° C ) Mix it well enough.

2. When the mustard dough for poultice is finished, spread it on the cotton cloth to about 3mm thickness. The size should be enough to cover the chest when used on the chest.

3. Place one piece of gauze on top of a piece of mustard wrapped with a piece of gauze. At first, the skin is tingling, and then it gets hot and hot . At this time, the skin is usually in a state of redness.

4. Lift the tip of the mustard dough and if the skin turns red, remove the mustard, lightly wipe it with warm towel, then cover the dry towel by four layers. If you have a fever within 5 minutes, the effect is good, and you can see the symptoms as light, but if you do not flare after 20 minutes or if you flare, it will fade and disappear to indicate that the severity of the disease is severe.

5. If it does not flare after 20 minutes, stop once, apply the magmium solution to the skin, and after 40 ~ 50 minutes, reheat the mustard.

** The frequency of mustard pomace is usually once a day, but sometimes it can be twice.

Please note

For soft-skinned children, mix mustard and flour to make mustard dough. For infants, add more flour.

This is to reduce symptoms of tingling. In the case of pneumonia, if you do not flare, you will continue to flare several times.

In this case, stick for 20 minutes, rest for 40 minutes and then paste again for 20 minutes. That is, it is conducted once an hour, but if you do not fire, you should try not to stop on the way.

I do not need to keep it for more than 20 minutes because I do not boil the mustard paste.


If the skin is torn due to the mustard dough, after the redness disappears, dilute the liquid such as olive oil or margarine. It is better to use a new mustard.
