Healing Journal

I live with a rare condition called semi-superior canal dehiscence. Each morning my neck, shoulders and upper back are locked tight and painful. My brain keeps those muscles switched on to prevent sudden movements that trigger dizziness. For years, stretching hurt, movement was limited, and my day began with stiffness and fatigue.

My name is Milly Albers, and life in our home is beautifully full, I’m a mum to a spirited 4-year-old and a bubbly 8-month-old, and I run a business that keeps me on my toes. Health and wellbeing are a big priority for us. We eat well, we rest when we can, and we’re intentional about the products we bring into our home.

I first discovered Woodleigh Hills at the very beginning of their journey and instinctively felt drawn to their purpose. The first product I tried was the Wilga Rub for my regular headaches – I was amazed by how quickly it worked. That little jar of magic definitely decreased the amount of paracetamol I was taking!

For thousands of years, Indigenous Australians have relied on the land not just for food and shelter, but for healing. Plants like Wilga, Maroon Bush, Kangaroo Apple, and Native Apricot were integral to treating pain, skin conditions, hormonal imbalances, and countless other ailments.

For generations, Indigenous Australians have relied on the healing power of native plants.Today, modern research is uncovering how these plants work—validating traditional knowledge and offering exciting opportunities for natural health solutions.

At Woodleigh Hills, we have also identified many other applications beyond these plants’ traditional uses or currently researched benefits. We are proud to be leading the way in evidence-based research, with real people achieving real results.
