The Profile

Tea Tree is arguably the most famous essential oil in the world. Native to New South Wales, Australia, it was named by Captain Cook, whose crew used the leaves to brew a spicy tea. For thousands of years, the Bundjalung people used the crushed leaves to treat wounds and skin infections. During WWII, it was considered so vital as a disinfectant that Australian soldiers were issued a bottle in their first-aid kits. The aroma is medicinal, fresh, camphorous, and slightly "pungent." It is a chemical powerhouse, containing over 100 unique compounds that work together to create a broad-spectrum "germ-killer."

Therapeutic Actions

Antiseptic, Antifungal, Antiviral, Antibacterial, Anti-inflammatory, Cicatrizant, Diaphoretic, Expectorant, Immune Stimulant, Insecticide, Vulnerary.

Usage & Benefits

  • Skin: The "First Aid" oil. It is unsurpassed for acne, athlete’s foot, nail fungus, and cold sores. It helps dry out blemishes and disinfects minor cuts, scrapes, and insect bites.

  • Immune System: It is a powerful immuno-stimulant. Unlike many antibiotics, Tea Tree increases the body's own ability to respond to infection by stimulating white blood cell activity.

  • Respiratory: Effective for catarrh, sinusitis, and persistent coughs. It is particularly useful for clearing "stuck" mucus during a heavy cold.

  • Genito-Urinary: Frequently used to treat thrush (candida), cystitis, and other infections due to its potent antifungal properties.

  • Hair Care: Excellent for treating dandruff and lice, as it cleanses the scalp and balances sebum production.

Emotional Benefit

Tea Tree is the "Oil of Energetic Boundaries." It is for those who feel "drained" by people or situations—often referred to as "energetic parasites." It helps to clear out old, stagnant emotional patterns and "toxic" influences. Tea Tree empowers the individual to say "no" and provides the strength to maintain healthy boundaries, ensuring that one's own vitality is not leaked away.

The "At Home" Remedies

1.       The "Blemish Buster": For stubborn acne, use a cotton bud to apply a tiny amount of diluted Tea Tree (1 drop in a teaspoon of Aloe Vera or carrier oil) directly to the spot.

2.      Shoe Deodorizer: Add 2 drops of Tea Tree and 2 drops of Lemon to a cotton ball and leave it inside your shoes overnight to kill odor-causing bacteria and fungus.

3.       The "Winter Wellness" Hand Spray: Mix 10 drops of Tea Tree and 10 drops of Lavender in 50ml of water with a splash of witch hazel. Use as a natural, non-drying hand sanitizer.
