For many centuries, the Australian Bundjalung Aborigines bathed in the healing waters of swampy areas where the Melaleuca Alternafolia plants grew. They successfully treated skin conditions by crushing the leaves and spreading the pulp over the affected area. The Tea Tree Oil got its name from the British Explorers who observed the Aborigines brewing leaves of the tree to make a tea that was used to cure various ailments.

There are over three hundred varieties of the Melaleuca tree, but only one, the Australian Melaleuca Alternafolia, has been found to contain large amounts of natural antiseptic and fungicide properties. Abundantly grown in the northern region of New South Wales, these tall, narrow leafed trees thrive in the sandy, light textured soil of the low lying wetlands. Planted from seed, the Australian Melaleuca Alternafolia tree grows rapidly and produces a strong deep root system that is virtually indestructible.

As an essential oil, Tea Tree Oil, has numerous and varied uses. Essential oils are the essences of plant material that are extracted by a steam distillation process. These essential oils can be combined with vegetable oils or alcohol and blended into perfumes, bath oils and cosmetics. The oils help balance, rejuvenate and stimulate the body and skin.

Often used in aromatherapy, Tea Tree Oil incorporated in massage lotions, bath oils, diffusers, compresses and facial masks produces a soothing and relaxing effect which is successful in relieving stress related conditions.

Tea Tree Oil treatment has brought about successful treatment to many users in the form of shampoos, skin creams, bath oils and gels and soap. Tea Tree Oil in the pure oil form is termed "a medicine kit in a bottle" relieving discomfort from numerous physical conditions.
