Pure Emu Oil
Pure Emu Oil has been around for thousands of years, but it is only recently that modern day science has proven what Australia’s indigenous people have known for a long time, it is an excellent natural anti-inflammatory. The oil we use is from a particular sub species of Emu which has been scientifically proven to have greater levels of Biological activity. The benefits of Pure Emu Oil are largely due to its potent anti-inflammatory properties and superior penetration. This means that the oil of emu can penetrate deeply into your body and in fact, go through the outer layer of watertight skin (stratum corneum barrier).
We add Emu Oil to assist all the active ingredients in our Super Balm to penetrate as deeply as possible into your body.
Coconut Oil
We use the best available Coconut Oil to assist the Super Balm to spread when applied and is obviously great for your skin also.
