Emu Oil has been used in Australia for hundreds of years, but only since the arrival of the first white settlers has it been documented. Anthropological studies have failed to determine exactly how long the Aboriginal people have valued the medicinal properties of the emu. Methods of treatment which have been recorded describe how arthritis sufferers were wrapped in the oily skin of the emu. The Australian Aboriginal people ascribed great medical powers to emu oil.

The use of emu oil has increased dramatically over the last fifteen years, initially obtained from the fat of wild birds but now exclusively from farm bred stock. Emu oil products are now available in many pharmacies, department stores and health food shops in Australia, in a range of preparations from pure oil, capsules, rubs, creams and cosmetics.
