Disposable Cotton Toiletry goods (part A)

PART A

COTTON SOFT Company

The wonderful (Cotton Soft) company offers their exclusive COTTON personal needs products, via independent stores in Bulk or Retail, On-Line or through Store-Fronts!

Environmentally sound COTTON:
COTTON SOFT uses the short fibers of the cotton plant (known as linters) that normally get discarded as waste material. COTTON SOFT cotton is only from non-genetically modified, chemically void, and pesticides/insecticides free, and is revolutionary with this idea.


Why use Cotton Products for your disposable toiletry needs? Whereas it takes years and years for trees to grow to any maturity, COTTON is an ANNUALLY RENEWABLE CROP! Additionally, Cotton Toiletry products are ideal for sensitive skin and delicate respiratory systems.


COTTON SOFT products include:
Disposable Facial Tissue, Toilet Tissue, and Kitchen (Paper-like) Towels Rolls and Disposable Picnic/Napkin Squares.

Facial Tissue: Your Choices

Facial Tissue
And
Your Environmentally Sound Choices

Whether you have Allergies, “Tear over Sad Movies”, experienced the sinister seasonal Cold, or simply have company:

A Home should always
have Facial Tissue available for it’s occupants and guests!

For The Bachelors out there-
Toilet Paper is never an acceptable solution, unless you are camping! No one, I repeat, no one… other than YOU, wishes to place an item against his or her face when you’ve touched it on the toilet!

Toilet Paper usually comes in rolls or tiny squares, for your private toiletry uses.

Facial tissue is usually created softer or stronger, and specifically for facial use. Soon I will post an article discussing options for “Toiletry needs” which of course will define Natural Choices for toilet paper!

Firstly:
Facial Tissue or Handkerchief

In the U.S. the facial tissue market has been dominated by the Kleenex brand disposable handkerchief, and so dubbed “Kleenex”. Originally, paper products were not used. Instead, cloth squares or handkerchiefs were carried and eventually marketed in numerous colors, shapes, and patterns. After children sharing facial towels to blow noses were found to spread germs in large cities, a temporary solution to the germ distribution came into creation. Disposable, single use cloths for those who are ill, were to hit the U.S. markets and eventually most parts of the world.

1924: The Kleenex disposable facial tissue is released
1926: Kleenex is marketed to Canada

EPSOM SALT: Uses In Sports Medicine and Injury Recovery

EPSOM SALT:
USES In DETAIL

Sports Medicine and Injury Recovery through the use of Epsom Salt

Broken Bones and dislocated joints need the seeking of Medical Therapy by a professional licensed and trained in Osteopathic (Muscular Skeletal) Medicine.

Unless joint damage can be ruled out via Xray or MRI, it is very difficult to say for certain that no bone has fragmented/chipped, even if joint/bone seems in place after injury. Not only can more damage occur from touching, rubbing, standing, or moving the broken/dislocated matter… specific physical therapy needs to be introduced after proper placement/replacement and adequate immobilized healing time has been achieved.

For Sports Muscle and Ligament Soreness-

EPSOM SALT DEEP TISSUE RUB:

Preferably have Loved One, Spouse, Friend, or Sports Assistant available.

• Have Injured Person/Self lie on a water resistant massage table or bamboo mat on floor.
• Place Warm, dampened towels under body/areas that are experiencing soreness/muscle pain from the sport/activity.
• With a ¼ cup of Epsom Salt gently shake the Epsom Salt Crystals onto dampened skin, and continue until area is covered.
• Follow-through with specific Deep Tissue Massage to realign muscle, tendons, and connective tissue.
• Keep injured area warm and slightly damp.
• Avoid Bruises, Cuts, Rashes, and any area that cannot stand a simple touch, where an EPSOM SALT WRAP would be preferred over tissue manipulation.
  

The Type of Tissue Rub/Massage, which will be beneficial, is dependant upon the state of relaxation needed and type of injury that the area/body has undergone.

Unless you are speaking of a Sprained Ankle, where raising the area then applying ice packs alleviate the swelling… I am a believer in heat/warmth for more Muscle, Ligament, and Tendon issues.

Ice/Cold Packs assist with many Fresh/new injuries, swelling, and narrowing of blood vessels (as a vasoconstrictor)!
