Matricaria / Chamomile wrap / Kamille-omslag
Equipment:
Chamomile flowers
Wool blanket
Strainer Silk/cotton wrap
Bowl
Wool wrap
Boiling water
Procedure: Have the patient sit on the wool blanket, with the wool wrap partially rolled from both ends on the blanket at the level of the patient's mid-back. Roll the silk wrap from both ends (like a scroll) and place it near the bowl. Pour boiling water over the chamomile into the bowl and let steep until the fragrance is released. Remove the strainer and chamomile and drop the wrap into the bowl. Take out the wrap with a fork and put into the wringing cloth or wring with heavy rubber gloves. Wring until dry. Take the wrap in the wringing cloth to the patient, who should be sitting up to receive the wrap. Apply the wrap as tolerated, but do not burn. Start at the back and unroll the wrap quickly as you move around to the sides. Have the patient lie down on the wool wrap and continue unrolling the hot wrap over the abdomen. Quickly cover with the wool wrap. Cover the patient with the wool blanket. Be sure that none of the hot wrap is exposed to the air. Cover the head lightly.
Leave on for 15 minutes, when you can remove the whole thing or just the wet wrap (leaving the wool wrap on and the patient covered).
