Soya Oil for massage
August 31 2007 at 9:24 PM Lost Sheep (Login Goatwoman)
Hello all. I was looking for Soya on Ebay and found this oil. Soya-Bean-Premium-Carrier-Oil-16-Oz.
I thought maybe it would make a great oil for massage. What else could be added to it for massage?

I use soy oil infused with herbs such as fenugreek and red clover for massage. I just put about half a cup of soy oil in a glass measuring cup and open about 2 capsules of each herb and dump the powders into the oil, cover and let sit for a good 3 days and then it's ready to use. I make sure I stir it once or twice a day while it's sitting and when it's ready I leave the herbs at the bottom of the cup and just pour the oil into a plastic bottle and leave it in my bathroom for use before I go to bed. The herbs to eventually make the oil smell strong, like the maple syrup smell from fenugreek, but it doesn't bother me.

Soy Oil

Thanks for answering! I was doing some more research and found most woman just use olive oil. I have that on hand plus I have coconut oil as well. How long have you been at this and do you have results? Are the oils used mostly just as carriers for the herbs. If so, I suppose it won't matter which oil correct?

No, I'd say it can be more than just a carrier (the oil). the "soy" oil in particular does have some effects as well. I've been at this for 6 months now and started with herbs and then went to massage only and now I'm doing BO. I've gained a total of about 3 to 3 1/2 inches. I still want more though! :-)
