Tea Tree Essential Oil 10ml

Ancient Wisdom Tea Tree Essential Oil 10ml

In early times, it seems the leaves of this tree were infused to make tea, which is how the name came into being. Tea tree essential oil is distilled from the leaves of the tree Melaleuca alternifolia, which is native to the northeast coast of New South Wales, Australia. The oil is claimed to have valuable antiseptic and anti-fungal properties due to constituents called terpenoids, and is used in many personal care products and medicines today.

Tea tree oil is said to be good for relieving  congestion, colds, coughs and flu. It has been used to heal acne, fungal infections, dandruff, infections and is believed to soothe aching muscles and joint injuries. When added to bath water it helps control bacteria. Tea tree oil is not to be taken internally. It is usually used only on adults and must be kept away   from children and pets. Don't use it if you're pregnant or lactating.

The tea tree has been known for its medicinal properties since ancient times in eastern Australia. The Australian aborigines are known to have been using the crushed leaves to heal cuts, burns, sores, and infections for hundreds of years. They inhaled the oils from the crushed leaves to relieve coughs and colds.
