Melaleuca alternifolia
The Melaleuca (the tea tree) is a shrub or small tree with a white trunk, featuring evergreen leaves and fruit in the form of capsules. This tree is common in the swampy regions of the northeastern coast of Australia (New South Wales).
This essential oil is obtained by distilling fresh leaves.
The Bundjalund, an Aboriginal Australian group, have been using the diverse properties of this plant for millennia to treat wounds and skin infections. In the 1920s, this oil began to be used in surgery and dentistry to prevent or combat infections of the skin and mucous membranes.
Recent scientific research has shown that tea tree essential oil is a powerful anti-infectious and antiviral agent that strengthens the immune defenses.
It is a sovereign oil for relief and disinfection:
- Insect bites
- Sunburns
- Injuries
Melaleuca is known for its effectiveness in relieving topical issues from various skin and mucous membrane conditions (acne, athlete's foot, vaginitis, for example).
It is traditionally used in the topical treatment of skin wounds and burns.
