Aromatherapy Properties:
(Uses) For
many people who have experienced the benefits of Tea Tree oil, this scent
has become equivalent with the scent of healing. It is antibiotic,
antiseptic, antiviral, bactericide, cicatrizant, expectorant, fungicide,
insecticide and sudorific. Although it may cause irritation on sensitive
areas of skin, along with Lavender it is just about the only oil that is
recommended to be used "neat" or straight from the bottle without dilution.
Tea tree has extensive applications in medicine and veterinary medicine
(rarely, if ever, used on cats or birds, use caution). Its most important
usage is to help the immune system fight off infectious diseases. Activates
the white corpuscles to form a defense against invading organisms and helps
to shorten the duration of illness. Indicated for influenza, cold sores, and
gingivitis. A series of massage with this oil before surgery will help to
fortify the body. Its strong antiviral and germicidal properties are useful
in repeated infections. Its fungicidal properties help clear vaginal thrush
and is of value with genital infections generally. Alleviates urinary tract
problems such as cystitis. Gives relief to genital and anal itching as well
as general itching from chicken pox to rashes caused by insect bites. Said
to give some protection against x-ray therapy in breast cancer. It will
apparently reduce scarring when applied before treatment as the protective
film will guard against very deep penetration of the x-rays. Helps to ease
otitis. Reduces pus in infected wounds. Clears blemishes caused by chicken
pox and shingles. Useful with minor burns, sores, sunburn, ringworm, warts,
tinea, herpes and athletes foot. Helpful with dry conditions of the scalp as
well as dandruff. |

General Safety Information: Do not take any oils
internally without consultation from a qualified aromatherapy practitioner.
Do not apply undiluted essential oils, absolutes, CO2s or other concentrated
essences onto the skin. If you are pregnant, epileptic, have liver damage,
have cancer, or have any other medical problem, use oils only under the
proper guidance of a qualified aromatherapy practitioner. Use extreme
caution when using oils with children and give children only the gentlest
oils at extremely low doses. It is safest to consult a qualified
aromatherapy practitioner before using oils with children. A skin patch test
should be conducted prior to using an oil that you've never used before.
