Emu Oil has been used for thousands of years by the Aborigines of Australia to reduce the pain & swelling of arthritis, heal wounds & burns including sunburns, and to reduce the pain, itch & swelling of insect bites and stings.
Emu Oil is an effective anti-inflammatory. The potency of the anti-inflammatory effect from Emu Oil is similar to ibuprofen without the negative side-affects frequently common with traditional prescription or corticosteroid based anti-inflammatory medications.

Now you mention it, I've never heard of an emu with osteoarthritis. It must be brilliant stuff.

my grandmother uses it and swears by it.. sort of uses it like any muscle balm.. she rubs it in.. I dont have access to it here or Id use it.. I fell 2 years ago and popped my knee cap out of joint. Its hurts off and on since. I just take "move free" tables which is glucosamine and chondroitin some herb concoction that helps regenerate joint cartilage.. I buy mine at GNC..

While it is soothing and some people say it works for them... mostly when it comes to arthritis it more like snake oil...
