The Eucalyptus tree is native to Australia and has been used throughout history by the Indigenous Peoples of Australia as a medicinal herb. The Eucalyptus tree was introduced to Europe in the nineteenth century. The Eucalyptus tree has been cultivated for essential oil production in Australia, North Africa, Spain, California, India and China.

Respiratory And Immune Systems

Eucalyptus Globulus essential oil is well known and regarded as an oil with a great affinity for the respiratory system. You may like to use it during cold and flu season as it could assist with immunity and respiratory health. It is thought to have antibacterial, antimicrobial and antiviral properties according to many sources. It may also be beneficial when used as a decongestant to help clear blocked sinuses and a blocked nose.

Musculoskeletal System

When applied topically, it could assist with stiff, achy muscles and joints, made worse by cold, damp weather.

Skin

May help in the management of many kinds of infections, including those that are slow to heal. Could also be of benefit when using for mild burns, blisters, cuts and insect bites. Also disliked by insects and is often used to deter them.

The following ways to use the essential oil should help you to get the most benefit from the oil.

For use with the Respiratory and Immune Systems

Aromatherapy Steam Inhalation Use

Steam inhalations can be a great support for our immunity and when dealing with mild respiratory conditions.

Fill a Pyrex bowl 1/4 full with water just off the boil. Drop between 4-8 drops of Eucalyptus essential oil onto the surface of the water. Remove any contact lenses and spectacles. Lean over the bowl as comfortable and cover your head with a towel. Keeping eyes closed. Inhale for 5-10 minutes or as feels comfortable for you. Can be repeated as need up to 8 times a day.

Another, perhaps more convenient method of administration is using a purpose-made inhaler cup, easily found online or in your local pharmacy. Lower the dose to up to 2 drops with this method.

Be careful not to burn yourself with the hot water and keep away from children and in a safe location. Any irritation stop immediately. Discard solution after use. Not suitable for asthmatics or with children.

Aromatherapy Inhaler

Aromatherapy inhalers are perfect for personal use and very convenient when on the go. Use whenever a boost of energy is required, by gently breathing in from the nasal inhaler.

In an empty nasal inhaler (available online) add between 2-4 drops of Eucalyptus globulus essential oil onto the pad within the inhaler.

For use with the skin

Defence Skin Emulsion

Using Eucalyptus essential oil in your handmade skin emulsion is a great way to apply the essential oil with a protective method of administration. Emulsions can act as a protective barrier and a wonderful medium in which to apply essential oils to skin conditions. Emulsions come in different forms such as creams and lotions. The consistency varies according to the desired outcome.

10g Emulsifying wax
30ml suitable carrier oil
5ml Vegetable glycerin
90ml purified water
2ml Citrus seed extract.

Melt the wax in a bain-marie and stir in the vegetable oil. Bring the water and the glycerin to the same temperature in a separate bowl. Remove both bowls from the heat and slowly stir the water phase into the oil phase. Continue beating the mixture until it cools. Add the citrus seed extract and then essential oils of your choice including tea tree oil. Stir until completely mixed. Store in a dark glass jar.

The dilution ratio will be 2-3% (12-15 drops in 25/gm of cream) for adults bodily application.

For elderly people, those with sensitive skin, or those with medical conditions a 1% dilution (5 drops) is needed.
