Tea Tree Oil~

For many years I have researched and used essential oils. I have used them for medical purposes, cleaning, and even to add a fresh scent to our little house. Tea tree oil is one of my favorite, and perhaps most used essential oil. (with lavender being a close second.) Tea tree oil comes from the leaves of Melaleuca altermifolia trees, which is native to Australia. Tea tree oil has many beneficial medical properties. They include, antiseptic, anti fungal and strong antibacterial actions. It can even be effective in treating MRSA, which most drugs are not working, because of drug resistance. I have used it for cuts, to treat infection and even abscess gums. My mother who is a nurse, has cured people of toe nail fungus with tea tree oil. The great thing too about essential oils, is that it can easily be absorbed through the skin membrane, making it very effective. I hope that anyone who is at all interested in natural solutions as opposed to using other means, will look into essential oils. They have been a true blessing in my life.
