Usage It is a very powerful immune stimulant. Tea Tree increases the body?s ability to respond to any of the above organisms. It is an excellent oil for cold, influenza and infectious illnesses.

Verruca (warts) can be defeated, by placing a single drop of neat oil every day on the center of the wart. It will take several weeks to remove the wart but it will be killed. Tea-Tree is used to treat acne. Alternate it with oils like Lavender and Bergamot. Some women tend to get spots around the nose and chin in the days preceding menstruation. A drop of tea tree dabbed on each spot reduces the heat and pain and clears the spots up quickly.

The immuno-stimulant effects are useful in illnesses like glandular fever. People who repeatedly experience infections or who are slow to recover from any illness will benefit. If treating candida, continue the treatments for several weeks after the symptoms have disappeared. Do not forget to treat both partners.
