History

The stories of the Australian Aborigine indicate their use of Emu Oil over many years.
They used Emu Oil to gain relief from minor aches and pain, to help heal wounds quicker, and protect their skin from the harsh elements of wind and sun.
Aborigines reveal that methods of treatment included hanging an emu skin on a tree to collect the oil, and wrapping sufferers in a fresh killed skin.
Emu Oil is all about WELLNESS, because as a multi-purpose, natural substance it provides to the community at large an ALTERNATIVE to some prescribed products.

EMU OIL ...On Burns? The pain stops at once! "I've used it on a number of occasions involving steam, hot water, and grease burns. Although it is difficult to tell with absolute assurance, it appears to me that each time I have used it, it has made a substantial difference and that the burns have healed more quickly and with less scarring than I would have anticipated without the use of the emu oil. I have been very fascinated with the response that I have gotten and continue to use it in my practice and am recommending it to patients." (Quote from A. Randal Claassen, M.D.)

From clinical studies it has become clear that the two major properties of Emu Oil are its ability to penetrate the skin and its anti-inflammatory properties.

Arthritis pain, Eczema, Burns, Wounds, Sports injury, Sunburn,
Emu oil comes from the rendered and refined fat of the emu bird. The emu is similiar to an ostrich, a member of the ratite family. Most of the birds are raised in the US by emu farmers, and then sent to be rendered and refined. This type of farming is similiar to cattle farming. One of the things we know about the emu is that they have wonderful immune systems. The emu can be close to death from injury and in a few days be good as new. It is this wonderful healing properties that they pass along through the emu oil. This is why the emu oil is good for so many things.
What's in Emu Oil that makes it so great?
Current Scientific Research
Research shows emu oil to be almost 100% triglyceride in nature which means that emu oil is almost a completely neutral lipid and as such has tremendous medical and cosmetic possibilities as a base carrier and neutral emollient. There was also a lack of phospholipids, which explains the emu oil's high penetrating qualities since the human skin is phospholipid deficient.
Prof. Peter Ghosh, a bone and joint expert, at Sydney University injected lab rats with dead bacteria to induce arthritis. Emu oil was then applied to a shaven patch on their backs. The results were startling. After a few days the rats showed only minimal swelling and inflammation. The emu oil contains high levels of linolenic acid - a substance known to temporarily ease joint pain; and oleic acid - a substance which has a local anti-inflammatory effect on dermal tissues.
