ABOUT RESINS:

Resins are hardened sap harvested from trees. Sap is created as a defense mechanism for trees and plants. When a tree is damaged, resin exudes from the exposed wood where the bark has been removed, covering the wound and sealing it off from intruding insects, parasites, bacteria, funguses, etc. The resin hardens over time, creating a seal over the wound. Therefore most resins have anti-fungal and antimicrobial properties that help the tree fend off any threats as well as healing properties that help the tree heal itself faster. These virtues are all important when using resins medicinally as well, and are reflected in how humans use them. When used topically they make really great antiseptic and antimicrobial ointments and first aid salves for cuts and bruises and other injuries or skin damage. They often also carry properties that promote skin tissue growth and healing.
