Emu Oil Common Uses
The use of emu oil originates from the Australian Aboriginal culture. According to their oral history, emu oil has been used for over 40,000 years. The oil has been used to relieve minor aches and pains, help wounds heal quicker, and protect skin from the elements. The Aboriginal people first introduced emu oil into European culture as a natural sunscreen and moisturizer. European settlers soon adopted the use of emu oil and many other natural remedies that the Australian Aboriginal people provided.
