Advance preparation will ensure that your clay pack application goes smoothly and that you will be relaxed. Set aside a block of time so that you will enjoy the experience and not be rushed. Try to avoid aluminum or tin implements.
MATERIALS NEEDED
- Clay Detox Bath Formula of your choice
- A timer or clock; rubber or vinyl gloves
- A dust mask; a whisk for mixing
- A large glass or ceramic bowl
- Hot wet towels and dry towels; plastic wrap.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
Clay packs may be used instead of tub baths for those who have a heart condition, high blood pressure, taking prescription medicine or pregnant. Always consult with your doctor if you are on medication, have a chronic condition or have a special health concern. Also, if you are elderly, or extremely toxic, weak or ill, you may wish to use less clay or keep the pack on for a shorter amount of time. Always check with a doctor in any questionable situation. These special clay packs remove toxins along with some minerals/vitamins and electrolytes. If you are in a depleted condition, please replenish before and after having a clay pack. This clay is not for internal use.
DETOXIFICATION SYMPTOMS
Some normal symptoms from toxic elimination are nausea, light-headedness, headaches and dizziness, a pulling sensation from parts of the body and fatigue. If these occur during the clay pack, stop and remove the pack. Use less clay and take less time for your next pack.
The occurrence of the above symptoms means that the toxins are moving too fast. Just go slower. Activated charcoal is recommended for neutralizing toxins. Also, Rescue Remedy, a natural flower essence useful in any type of emergency, can be found in most health stores.
Ginger and peppermint teas may be purchased separately and are known to improve strength and energy and help digestion. You might take some in hot water following the pack and keep drinking the tea until the packet is empty. Ginger tea should NOT be taken by anyone on blood thinner medication.
Remember: In all chronic & serious conditions, check with your doctor or professional. Always go slow at first & gradually increase the amount of clay in the bath over time.
GUIDELINES FOR CLAY PACKS
The recipe is 2 cups of clay formula to approximately 6 cups of warm water. These proportions make a moist and pliable clay that is easy to work with.
To make the clay, place the warm water in a large bowl and gradually mix in the clay/herb/spice mixture. The suggested amount of time for keeping the pack on is from 10 minutes to 40 minutes.
LL’s Magnetic Clay packs should be 1 to 3 inches thick. The thicker the pack, the deeper the penetration and the greater the drawing power.
CLAY PACK PROCEDURES
Packs may be applied on all parts of the body
(the head pack procedures are taught in the technician training class because they are a little more difficult). We now have a DVD available showing the various applications of the clay.

Add the clay formula slowly and mix it with a whisk until the clay/spices/herbs are well mixed and you have achieved the proper consistency (see guidelines above). Wear a dust mask to avoid breathing in the clay dust. Try not to get the clay dust in the air when mixing.
Apply the warm clay to the skin. Cover the clay with plastic wrap and hot wet towels. Then cover with dry towels to keep the area warm (or a heating pad may be used).
Set the timer for the desired time, or watch the clock. Re-wet the towels in hot water every 5 to 10 minutes.
When finished, put on gloves, remove the clay and put it in a garbage bag. Removal of the clay without gloves, in rare cases, may cause chemical burns and re-absorption of viruses, bacteria and fungus.
Wash off the area and moisturize the skin. Dress warmly until the pores close. Drink plenty of water, juices and teas to boost your energy and improve your digestion.
