This amazing and universal balm features the unique New Zealand ingredient Totarol as it hero ingredient, Totarol is an oil extract from a tree that only grows in New Zealand the Totara (Podocarpus Totara) tree.
The Totara tree is extremely resilient living up to 2,000 years with the oldest living tree in New Zealand at 1800 years. A reason for Totara Trees longevity is the anti-bacterial activity of the oils contained within Totara which also contributes to Totara not being susceptible to rotting or attack from insects, and this is one of the reasons the native New Zealand Maori used Totara for canoes
