Melaleuca Breakdown



Melaleuca Oil
Melaleuca alternifolia

Melaleuca is one of the more well known oils in the essential oil world, but often known by it's other title, Tea Tree oil. Melaleuca is my preferred type of tea tree to work with, for a multitude of reasons. Unlike certain Tea Tree mixtures, Melaleuca is surprisingly gentle. When used in a diluted fashion it is often gentle enough to apply to areas of major discomfort. It's tonic-like abilities make it a favorite for the essential oil wellness conneisures, and it's medicinal aroma elevates many blends for aromatherapy usage.
