I have a freind over from Switzerland who wants to find where to buy some--not the cream but the old fashioned oil in a bottle. I have an old bottle but it was bought years ago & from where I cant remember. It is called "The Australian Bush Recipe".

heres the recipe , now you can make some.
Methyl Salicylate 4.2% w/w (Oil of wintergreen),
Turpentine Oil 4.2% w/w,
Camphor 0.83% w/w,
Peppermint Oil 0.42% w/w,
Pine Oil Pumilio 2.5% w/w,
Menthol 0.17% w/w.
You can't get oil anymore , Goanna Oil is not from Goanna's of course but the link has a tall story to tell ,typical aussies,and the name Goanna is a trade name for many other oils including Tea Tree Oil,you will find plenty of liniment these days.
