Tea Tree

A very useful medicinal oil with a fresh aroma. Supports the immune system and is active against bacteria, fungi and viruses. Used extensively by the Aborigines, this oil is now widely recognised by the scientific community as a powerful tool against a variety of infectious organisms. In 1930 Mr W R Penfold fouund it to be 11-13 times stronger than carbolic as a germicide.

Methods: Bath, Massage & Skin Oil, Vaporisations. Apply neat for First Aid.

Cautions: May cause sensitisation in some people - do a skin patch test first. (i.e. put a drop on the back of the hand first to see if any irritation occurs. If it does, then bathe hand in cold water and in future use tea tree oil blended with one teaspoon of gel for first aid use, rather than neat).
