Mānuka (also known as the New Zealand Tea Tree) has been revered for centuries for its many invigorating and stimulating properties by New Zealand's First Nation People, the Maori. Various parts of Manuka were used by Maori topically to treat wounds, cuts, sores and skin diseases. These traditional uses were studied and validated in recent years, demonstrating significant antimicrobial & anti-fungal activity from the oil.
