Research has shown that properly refined emu oil is penetrating, anti-inflammatory, anti bacterial, healing, moisturizing, and non-irritating.

The emu produces a layer of fat that surrounds its body much like a saddle blanket. It averages about two inches thick on its back.

Science is proving emu oil to be a modern miracle for relief of pain and inflammation of injured tissues and joints. Studies and research are ongoing. Many of the claims for emu oil are being documented by medical research and personal experiences. Modern research has documented that emu oil possesses numerous beneficial qualitites. Laboratory experiments and analysis of emu oil both in Australia and in the United States have confirmed that emu oil has the ability to reduce inflammation of the joints. Emu oil contains high levels of linolenic acid...a substance known to temporarily ease joint pain, and oleic acid...a substance which has a local anti-inflammatory effect on dermal tissues. When emu oil was tested, it proved to be very hypo-allergenic and to have an extremely high purity level.

Anti-Aging Effect:
Emu oil is unsurpassed for its moisturizing properties. Studies found that dry aging skin increased in thickness by 2-3 times when treated with emu oil. Age spots and wrinkles diminished noticeably.

Arthritis:
Emu oil comforts stiff muscles and joints, and reduces the inflammation and swelling of arthritic joints. When used regularly, it acts much like an analgesic without any negative side effects.

Burns:
Emu oil has been found to be very effective on burns of all types including sunburn, 1st and 2nd degree burns, and radiation burns. It alleviates pain and dramatically reduces scarring and blistering.

Chronic Injuries Massage:
Muscle strain, sprains, injured ligaments and even heel spurs that are experienced by athletes and other sports enthusiasts are responding well to treatment with emu oil resulting in 50% faster healing. Many professional sports teams are now using emu oil for massages in their training rooms.

Psoriasis and Eczema:
Emu oil acts like a therapeutic balm by moisturizing the skin and reducing the itching, redness, and scaling associated with many stubborn skin conditions.

The use of emu oil has increased dramatically over the past two years, and emu oil products are now available in a wide variety of preparations, from the pure oil to creams, cosmetics, hair care products, arthritis lotions and more.
