The health benefits of Tea Tree Essential Oil can be attributed to its properties as an antibacterial， antimicrobial， antiseptic， antiviral， balsamic， cicatrisant， expectorant， fungicide， insecticide， stimulant and sudorific substance.

Unlike the name suggests， the essential oil of Tea Tree is not extracted from the plant commonly associated with tea as a beverage. Neither is it related to Tea Oil， which is extracted from the seed of the Tea plant. Instead， it is extracted through steam distillation of twigs and leaves of Tea Tree， which has the botanical name Melaleuca Alternifolia. The tea tree is native to Southeast Queensland and New South Wales， in Australia， which is why it is such a common and popular essential oil in that country. However， its impressive qualities have spread to other parts of the world， so it can no be found internationally.

The main constituents of Tea Tree essential oil are Alpha Pinene， Beta Pinene， Sabinene， Myrcene， Alpha Phellandrene， Alpha Terpinene， Limonene， Cineole， Gamma Terpinene， Para Cymene， Terpinolene， Linalool， Terpinenol and Alpha Terpineol. This tree is native to Australia and its oil has been used and known among the original inhabitants of that continent as a cure-all medicine since ancient times.

The reputation as a cure-all given to this oil is not an exaggeration. Tea tree oil can be used as a cure for almost all tropical infections and diseases. You name it and it has some sort of positive effect or treatment for that disease. It is invariably found in almost the households of Australia， particularly those that have small children. The magical healing and disinfectant properties make it a wonder drug that also boosts your immunity. However， it is not meant to be ingested， and is poisonous. It is meant for topical application only!

There is so much more to tea tree essential oil than a boosted immune system and a protective agent for your skin; let’s explore some of those other invaluable health benefits below.

Health Benefits of Tea Tree Essential Oil

Antibacterial: It is said that when Mother Nature creates a diseases， she also creates the cure. The activity of microbes， bacteria， viruses and fungi are at their peak in the Tropics， so most of the medicinal plants to treat those dangerous things are found there too. Tea tree is one such plant. It can cure some of the most horrible and dangerous bacterial infections found in the tropics. Wounds， which are prone to contracting bacterial infections in this region， can be effectively cured and protected using this oil. This oil is seldom taken orally， but if you do， it should be in mild concentrations. It can cure internal bacterial infections such as those in the colon， stomach， intestines， excretory system and urinary system. It can also be used in treatment of tuberculosis.

Balsamic: The essential oil of Tea tree has balsamic properties that generally boost health. It promotes the absorption of nutrients from food and gives protection from diseases as well， meaning that overall it is a positive addition to our lives.

Cicatrisant: The Cicatrisant property of this essential oil makes it heal wounds quickly and protects them from infections. Furthermore， it can help neutralize or diminish the scar marks and after spots left by eruptions， boils， pox， and acne.

Antimicrobial: Microbes don’t stand a chance against this oil， since it is a highly effective antimicrobial substance. It can kill and keep away certain microbes (protozoa) which are responsible for causing severe tropical fevers and malaria.

Antiviral: Viral infections are very hazardous and are frequently recurring， since viruses can survive under very harsh conditions. They can bear unimaginable heat， cold and even poison， because they develop a protective shell called a “Cyst” around them. Some viruses are intelligent enough to develop a new cyst each time they are activated， like the Common Cold Virus， in order to trick our immune system. They never die naturally and can live dormant (neither alive or dead) for hundreds or even thousands of years. They can be killed only if their cyst is ruptured using a particular compound or if they are subjected to extreme heat which is beyond their tolerance. The Tea Tree Oil helps rupture this cyst in some viruses and can give protection against them. It also helps cure viral infections like the common cold， influenza， mumps， measles， and pox.

Expectorant: People who are suffering from cough and cold， congestion， bronchitis and other troubles associated with colds， are sure to get relief using tea tree essential oil. It provides relief from cough， cold， bronchitis and congestion. It can be rubbed on the chest and inhaled while sleeping， or a drop can be placed on the pillow so it can do its magical work at night， and you can wake up feeling much better in the morning.

Hair Care: The stimulant property of tea tree essential oil can be very beneficial for taking care of certain hair conditions. If you suffer from dandruff or hair loss， simply apply a diluted amount of tea tree essential oil to your scalp. The increased blood flow that you experience will help your follicle stay healthy and strengthen the hold on your hair， so you won’t suffer from premature hair loss. Also， since the skin will become healthier， it will be easier to keep moisturized， reducing the amount of dandruff and dry skin!
