Benefits of Pure Emu Oil by Willow Springs

Emu oil has been valued for thousands of years by Australian Aborigines for its renowned healing, moisturizing and pain relieving powers. The Aborigines introduced Emu Oil to the first Europeans as a natural sun screen and skin moisturizer. The use of Emu Oil was among many natural remedies adopted by settlers from the original inhabitants of Australia.

Emu oil is rendered and refined from a thick layer of emu fat found on the back of mature emu, which yields 6 - 7 litres of unsaturated, non-toxic, highly penetrating pure Emu oil. Modern research studies verify emu oil has unique beneficial and therapeutic properties.

Pure Emu oil contains:

Linoleic acid, which eases joint pain and muscle aches
Oleic acid, an established anti-wrinkle agent, skin cell regenerator
Vitamin E, a major antioxidant and healing agent
Sapogens, proven skin softeners
Vitamin A, an established skin repairer and antioxidant

Emu Oil provides gentle and effective daily skin care

Pure Emu oil helps restore, safeguard and maintain the appearance and feel of healthy skin - due to its naturally-occurring skin softeners and antioxidants, as well as its non-comedogenic (i.e. does not clog pores) and hypoallergenic qualities. It has shown to be the most rapid and penetrating oil into the skin, making it a superior carrier for any added therapeutic ingredients or moisturizers. Fast-absorbing and leaving no oily film, Emu oil continues to provide long-lasting benefits - even after repeated washings.

Emu Oil revitalizes mature and aging skin

Containing known skin cell regenerators, anti-wrinkle and skin anti-aging agents as well as potent antioxidants, pure Emu Oil helps to improve aging skin conditions. It has been shown to reduce the length and depth of wrinkles and fine lines. Offering both moisturizing and skin-thickening properties, Emu oil-enhanced products can assist to counter the dry, scaly, thinning skin, and wrinkles that may occur with age.

Emu Oil soothes aches and pains

Naturally enriched with anti-inflammatory and pain relief agents, pure Emu oil products such as Willow Springs Deep Heat Pain Cream, can soothe sore backs, joints and muscles and reduce discomfort. Emu oil’s potent anti-inflammatory effect is similar to Ibuprofen, without the negative side effects more common in traditional prescription or corticosteroid-based medications.
Used increasingly in sports medicine, pure Emu oil products are applied by fitness centers and professional sports teams around the world. As it penetrates skin so quickly and deeply, Emu oil delivers fast respite from muscle aches, pains, pulls and leg cramps.
