Guest guest Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 Tea Tree Massage Oil Pioneer Thinking The Ingredients 8 teaspoons grapeseed oil 6 drops of jasmine essential/fragrance oil 2 drops tea tree oil 2 drops neroli essential/fragrance oil Blend ingredients well. Warm up oil before doing any massage including your fingertips. *Avoid during pregnancy Tea Tree Steam Inhalation To relieve congestions and to help fight infection. Place 2 drops of Tea Tree oil in a bowl of steaming hot water. Covering your head with a thick cotton towel lean over the bowl and drape the towel over your head and the bowl and inhale the vapors for about 5 to 10 minutes. (This works really well for congestion!, BB, Lady Wystira) For Skin Infections: Use 3 - 5 drops of Tea Tree oil in your bath water. Soak for about 5 - 10 minutes then get out of the tub and gently dab the water from your skin. The following are from: Stoney Mountain Botanicals Tea Tree Salve 1 cup Olive Oil 1 ounce Beeswax 240 drops Tea Tree Oil Place the oil and beeswax in a pint mason jar and place in a pan filled with several cups of water. Heat until the beeswax is melted, stirring to mix well. Once the beeswax is completely melted stir in the Tea Tree essential oil. Pour into small salve containers. Store any excess salve in the refrigerator until needed. Tip: You could use a double boiler to melt the wax and oil. I prefer melting the mixture in the mason jar so that I can also store my salve in that jar and avoid having to clean a messy pan.

Pour into a spray bottle. Shake well before using. Spray on minor cuts and scratches. Tip: You can skip using the ethyl alcohol - its main purpose is to help the Tea tree oil dissolve and mix better into the solution. If you do not want to use the ethyl alcohol shaking very well before each use will be necessary. Cleanser for Acne 1/4 cup Witch Hazel 1 Tablespoon Aloe Vera Gel 10 drops Tea Tree Oil Apply cleanser with a cotton ball. Use 2 -3 times a day as needed. Tea Tree Oil can effectively help reduce acne inflammation. It works slower than benzyl peroxide lotions but it is gentler on the skin.

If you have ringworm, use Tea Tree straight on the area (if it's small.) If its large, use 3 drops of Tea Tree oil with 1 T. jojoba oil (carrier oil) and apply it directly to the affected area. Use 2 - 3 times per day. 3. For athlete's foot: Apply Tea Tree oil directly to the affected area. Do this 2 times per day. Or you could use 1 drop of Lavender and 2 drops of Tea Tree oil. 4. For sore throats: Gargle 2 drops of Tea Tree oil mixed into an 8 oz. glass of water. It's gonna taste yucky, but it is effective. 5. Nail fungus: add 5 drops of Tea Tree oil to a bowl of warm water. Soak your nails (hands or feet) for about 10 minutes. If the infection is really bad, use the Tea Tree straight. 6. As a disenfectant: put 25 drops of Tea Tree oil into an 8 oz. spray bottle then fill the bottle with water. Shake the bottle well, and then spray this mixture onto faucets, sinks, tubs, toilets or where ever you want to disenfect. 7. If you have an itchy scalp, add 15 drops of Tea Tree oil to your favorite bottle of shampoo (8 oz. bottle). Wash your hair and rinse as you normally would. 8. For Sprains and Bruises: rub straight Tea Tree oil onto the skin and gently massage. You can also soak the area in hot water that has Tea Tree oil added to it for relief. 9. For arthritis relief: mix 3 - 5 drops of Tea Tree oil in about 1 to 1/2 t. carrier oil and massage into the affected joint areas.
