Melaleuca

DoTERRA Essential Oil Melaleuca or (Tea Tree Oil) is used a lot in my house. For cuts and wounds I put a drop directly on the cut or wound and then put a bandaid over the wound, for earaches or ear infections I mix 1 drop each Melaleuca and Basil with Fractionated Coconut Oil and put it on the outside of the ear,  and I also put it in my Camp Wanders Healing Salve that I use on my face everyday.

 Here are some other uses for Melaleuca.
