Ginger Compress for Inflammation + Pain
Ancient Root, Modern Power
Used for centuries in traditional medicine, ginger root is more than just a spice — it's a natural healer.
How Does Ginger Actually Work in the Body?
Inflammation is your body’s natural defense against infection — but when it lingers, it can lead to pain and discomfort. That’s where ginger steps in. This powerful root contains natural anti-inflammatory compounds that work similarly to COX-2 inhibitors — the same type of drugs used to relieve pain and inflammation.

Whether you’re dealing with pain, tension, or inflammation — this natural therapy works from the outside in to support healing and relaxation.
How to Make a Hot Ginger Compress
- Grate one ounce of ginger root, wrap it in a thin cotton cloth and tie it closed. 
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil, and then reduce the heat. 
- Add the ginger into the water and allow it to soak for at least five minutes. 
- Place a small towel into the ginger water and carefully wring out the excess. 
- Apply the towel directly to the affected area and cover with another dry towel to hold in the heat. 
- Re-soak the towel as needed and repeat the process for about 15-20 minutes. 
It’s important to note that hot ginger compress should not be used more than once a week and should be avoided when a high fever is present.
