She told me the same thing ----- at least her story is consistent.  I have heard making manzanita tea and drinking it on a regular basis also helps.  This was confirmed by a horticulturalist professor friend of mine back home.

  I was browsing the shelves at the Sierra City store for PO relief 
stuff and there were two choices. I asked the attendant which one 
she'd recommend and she told me the best remedy was a hot water and 
manzanita leaves concoction. You apply this to the affected skin but I 
forgot the details.
I had never heard of that but what did I know of poison oak... It 
looked like a simple, DIY, lightweight solution and manzanita bush is 
so common along the California PCT so I went with that but didn't have 
the chance to test it.
