PHYSICAL ASPECTS: Sometimes called Lavender Tea Tree oil, Rosalina combines the calming, soothing nature of Lavender with the strong antimicrobial properties of Tea Tree.  Rosalina is from the same family as Tea Tree but is gentler, sweeter, softer, and has a milder aroma.  Rosalina is gentle yet powerful and can assist to address both the physical and emotional aspects of an illness.

Rosalina oil has strong antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral properties.  Historically the Australian people have used Rosalina oil for herpes, acne, boils, ringworm, and athlete's foot.  It has been used to treat acne, and help to soothe and heal the skin as well.  Rosalina has immune stimulant properties, and can be useful for insomnia as it is a sedative.

Rosalina is said to be an excellent oil for respiratory tract congestion and infection.  It is a gentle expectorant, and is gentle on the mucous membranes as well as the skin.  Rosalina is a great oil for kids and many people use it in place of stronger oils like Tea Tree and Eucalyptus when dealing with small children.  It is a great substitute for anyone who feels that Tea Tree is too harsh aromatically or energetically.
