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!

Since then, Woodleigh Hills has become a staple in our household, not just for me, but for my whole family.

My husband, Remco, lives with fibromyalgia and often struggles with chronic body pain. When I have time (and he’s lucky!), I’ll use Wilga Oil during a massage, it gives him genuine relief. If you’re a massage therapist, this is a must-have product for your toolkit.

Our little ones benefit too. When our son was younger, he had a severe cases of bronchiolitis and had to be hospitalised multiple times. Since then, whenever he starts showing signs of a cold, we rub Wilga Rub on his chest for relief. It's gentle and effective. We do the same for our baby when sniffles start creeping in.

During a tough week of hand, foot and mouth, we spritzed Wilga Spritz on the baby’s dummy, soothing those nasty mouth ulcers. And when she teeths, we rub the Wilga on her gums. She has also has bad eczema flare-ups on her chest, we alternate between Wilga Spritz and Kangaroo Apple for inflammation, followed by Native Apricot Balm three times a day, within a few weeks, her skin was clear.

We also use:

  • Wilga Rub on mozzie bites (instant itch relief)
  • Native Apricot Balm during pregnancy to nourish my growing belly and help avoid stretch marks.
  • Lip Balm as part of my daily skincare routine.
  • Native Apricot Balm to remove eye makeup (it works like a dream).

Our son knows that Woodleigh Hills is part of our first aid kit! And he’s right, it’s more than just a product line for us. It’s become part of how we care for each other.
