Suitable For

Will our Bush Medicine work for you?

Our Bush Medicine has healed so many people in our community in all sorts of ways.

However, every person is of course different, with our varying immune systems and diets having an impact on how and why illness appears differently from one person to the next. This can also have an effect on the way in which Bush Medicine responds, though if it doesn’t solve your issue completely, it should certainly provide relief upon application.

Depending on the severity and how long you've been suffering from a particular skin related issue, our Bush Medicine may need to be used for a longer period before you see results.

You can explore our FAQ section for more information.

Please note: While our Bush Medicine has been used for healing for thousands of years, we cannot make any medical claims. Instead we are guided by the results of our customers and wisdom of our ancestors. Like with any product, it’s always best to patch test before use, and while our ingredients are pregnancy and breastfeeding safe, we recommend checking in with your health care professional before introducing any new products to your skin.

Ingredients

Olive Oil has anti-inflammatory properties as well as moisturising the skin.

Beeswax has many healing properties, so it made sense to include it as a key ingredient. Bees also have their own cultural connection for us, as they are part of the pollination process for trees, growing beautiful flowers.

Irmangka Irmangka translates to “Bush Medicine” in our Kokatha/Yunkanyjatjara language. Commonly referred to as Emu Bush, it’s an arid plant known for its strong anti-inflammatory, pain-relieving, and skin-nourishing properties. Grown in the Western and Central desert regions of SA throughout our homelands, it has been used as a healing medicine by our ancestors for thousands of years.

How To

Rub into the affected area 2 times daily until symptoms ease. Safe to use during pregnancy. 

Bush Medicine should not be applied to festering sores or open wounds, particularly in eczema-affected areas, as it is oil-based and needs the skin to be relatively dry and not weeping.
