I am a 42 years old diabetic. I have had diabetes for 18 years. One of the complications of diabetes is leg ulcers and healing is very difficult due to the poor circulation that often accompanies diabetes. I have had open sores on my right leg, on and off, for more than 10 years. I have had 6 skin grafting surgeries on my leg to cover open wounds that required lots of "down" time. But my leg continued to break down with open wounds. I spent over a year doing pulsavac treatments, sometimes daily. We would get one spot to heal and another would open up. My husband and I joined this company in April of 2001 because we felt that we could save money on household products and supplements that we already use. I heard about the benefits of Tea tree oil at the presentation we attended and read more about it after joining but I was still skeptical.
After everything I had been through with my leg I was scared to try anything else, besides that, the oil cost $10 for an ounce. Then my blond brain remembered that this company guarantees their products 100% and if it worked my leg was definitely worth 10 bucks and if it didn't work I wasn't out anything.
I checked with the physical therapist that was doing my treatments and she was beyond skeptical and suggested that I try it on only a small portion of my leg at first, which I did. Within the first week it was obvious that the part of my leg I was treating with the Tea tree oil was healing much faster than the other part. It was also restoring proper skin tone to the scarred portion of my leg from the surgeries. The physical therapist called it my "voodoo oil".
Now for the first time in over 2 years, I have no open sores on my leg, which means I get to keep it longer. I am now using the Mela-gel to keep my leg moisturized and conditioned and looking forward to a long, long, life with 2 legs to enjoy it with.
