Features:
Leptosperum Scoparium Manuka, as it is called by most New Zealanders, was used in pre-European times by the indigenous people of New Zealand, and still is. A decoction of the leaves was drunk for urinary complaints and as a febrifuge.
The steam from leaves boiled in water was inhaled for head colds. A decoction was prepared from the leaves and bark and the warm liquid was rubbed on stiff muscles and aching joints. The emollient white gum, called pai manuka, was given to nursing babies and also used to treat scalds and burns. Chewing the bark is said to have a relaxing effect and it enhances sleep.
Research has shown it does have a more powerful antiseptic and antifungal action when compared to Melaleuca. Research carried out in both Britain and New Zealand by the Cawthron Institute and Waikato University has shown a broad spectrum antibiotic action.Beautiful smelling Golden Manuka Oil is hand harvested and organically grown, in Charleston on the West Coast of the South Island.

CAUTIONS AND CONTRA-INDICATIONS: Acute toxicity can occur if it is administered in amounts above the stated dose. It can, in some individuals, produce a mild irritancy to the skin.
L. scoparium (Manuka) is a shrub or small tree that grows abundantly throughout New Zealand. It is considered native to New Zealand, although it has been found growing in Eastern and Western Australia, New Guinea and Southeast Asia.
Parts Used: The leaves and branches are steam distilled to produce the oil.
Cultivation: We practice sustainable harvest from wild forest and bush areas. The areas have not been cultivated, the area is spray free and the oil production does not destroy the tree.
Harvesting: Wild trees and shrubs used in Golden Manuka Oil, are still pruned by hand just before and after flowering, and the material is steam distilled.
Characteristics: The oil produced by Golden Manuka is a yellow to pale brown oil with a honey-like, sweet aroma, and spicy, sharp taste.
Active Constituents: Analysis of manuka oil showed it contained monoterpene hydrocarbons, a-cubebene, b-pinene, r-cymene, g-terpinene, a-copaene,b-caryophyllene, aromadendrene, calamanene, limonene, and myrcene; the oxide 1,8-cineole; a terpene alcohol,linalool; and esters.
L.scoparium has a range of therapeutic actions and medicinal uses similar to Tea Tree. Linalool has effective sedative effects and is rapidly absorbed through the skin and nasal mucosa. Research has shown it does have a more powerful antiseptic and antifungal action when compared to Australian Tea Tree.
Research carried out by the Cawthron Institute and Waikato University has shown a broad spectrum antibiotic action.
