Emu Oil Use + Response Products |
Recent Developments
The use of emu oil has increased dramatically over the last ten years. Initially emu oil was obtained from the fat of wild birds but now exclusively from farm bred stock. Emu oil products are now available in most pharmacies and department stores in Australia in a range of preparations from oure oil to creams and cosmetics with a variety of additives. Clinical Experiences : I was initially introduced to emu oil by patients of mine who advocated its use in treating their skin. My immediate concern was to ensure that it was safe to be used. I was aware of the past reputation of emu oil but it is satisfying to me to find no occasion over the past ten years. Having exposed the oil to over 500 patients, has any allergic reaction been reported to me and that during this time, with many patients using oil over lengthy periods, it has been very rare for anyone to report that it had deteriorated or "gone off". Before recommending it I had tests done to identify its content, which showed it contained a variety of fatty acids but no hormones or steroids. I had the oil tested for bacteria content and found that in its pure state. It grew no organisms. In addition, when made into a moisturizer, which is a mixture of oil, an emulsifier and water. I had the cream challenged with our organisms: |

The emu oil cream was found to withstand greater quantities of bacteria
before growth took hold. Neither cream contained preservatives for test.
From clinical experience with emu oil, it became obvious that its two
major actions were anti-inflammatory and its ability to penetrate the skin.
It also appeared to provide some solar protection. How these actions occur a
nd to what extent remains to be discovered.
Ten Years of Clinical Usage : Its unique fatty acid composition makes Emu Oil an excellent ingredient for: |
* Moisturizing Creams and Lotions * Night Creams and Lotions * Eye Creams and Lotions * Lip Balm * Soap * Cream Rinse |
Eczema:
Eczema suffers often complain that the moisturizers available on the market, such as glycerol 10% in sorbolene, irritate their skin. I have found that emu oil, or creams made from emu oil, have often been of benefit and provide significant reduction of irritation and inflammation of the skin. Emu Oil does not appear to have the sufficient anti-inflammatory properties for use against inflamed eczema. However, it is a very useful followup to steroid treatment. Keloids: Messaging emu oil twice daily appears to significantly reduce recent keloid scarring and have antiinflammatory action against the formation of keloid tissue, but it does not seem to seduce old keloid scarring. Burns: The use of emu cream or immediately on early blistering appears to hold great proise. Although trials have been limited, it seems to promote faster healing with less pain and scarring. Psoriasis: To date, use of emu oil on psoriasis has been particularly effective, many patients have reported some benefit. Joints: The benefit of emu oil on joints to reduce pain, swelling and stiffness is most evident where the joint is close to the skin surface: |

Growing Pains :
This painful condition is caused by activity during younger years where overstretching the ligaments and tendons create swelling and discomfort. As a result of massaging emu oil on the joints and effective area prior to bed this discomfort has been shown to disappear. Rheumatoid Arthritis: This is an area being researched now. Many patients have cited tremendous results from massaging affected areas 2 - 3 times daily and before bed. |
