I'm guessing that in the latter quote "washing" refers to the use of plenty of water along with whatever apothecary concoctions are recommended. Rubdowns with a wool cloth (esp. a damp one) could easily be considered as something other than "washing" in that sense, while still helping with exfoliation and pore-opening.
