Tropical First Aid

Please be aware that pure Tamanu Oil is derived from the nuts of the Tamanu Tree.

If you happen to be allergic to nuts, we recommend that you test the product on a small area of your skin first.

We can learn a lot from the Melanesian culture. Their spirituality is inextricably connected to their ancestral heritage, their ancient land, age-old traditions and religious/cultural customs. Where modern medicine fails, traditional health remedies have much to offer. One of their best-kept secrets is Tamanu Oil. Local Ni Vanuatu klevas (healers) refer to it in their native language as "Nambagura". This miracle oil has been used for centuries as a tropical first aid to treat a wide range of skin aliments. While modern medicine has come a long way, it still searches for some answers in the tried and tested methods of the ancient Melanesian culture.

The cornerstones of Vanuatu custom medicine are its incredible Tamanu Oil (also known as the Sacred Oil Of Tamanu) and Virgin Coconut Oil. Our TROPICAL FIRST AID is based on these natural products and is designed for the treatment of troublesome skin conditions.
