During traditional times, White Cypress leaves were heated over hot coals or in a Coolamon to produce antiseptic and anti-inflammatory oil. Known for its great qualities, the leaf was wrapped around the skin with paperbark, which was known to soothe sore muscles and leave a calming effect.
Aboriginal people traditionally used Australian White Cypress timber to make spears, spear throwers, ceremonial objects, paddles and musical sticks.
