Absolutely not! There are a lot of 'Natural' products on the market today, but without carefully inspecting the ingredients, many consumers end up using products that are less than optimal. Buying the highest grade Tea Tree oil or Jojoba oil, for example, will ensure rapid healing for skin conditions, rather than further irritations. Another example would be Comfrey, a well-documented natural poultice and anti-inflammatory. Different parts of the plant, from the rhizomes to the roots, to the stems and leaves, contain higher, or lower, amounts of an alkaloid that can be harmful if ingested. At Healing Tree, we use comfrey that has been derived from those areas of the plants that have either minuscule or NO amounts of alkaloid. All Healing Tree products are absolutely FREE of alcohols, waxes, parabens, phthalates, petroleum, synthetic dyes, mineral oils, and fillers.
