Skin Disorders

Skin Diseases are the most complex conditions to treat with both Western and Chinese Medicine. This is because the Skin can be affected by both Internal and External factors of the body - such as Food (Internally) and Exposure to Irritants (Externally).  Acupuncture and Chinese Herbs are effective in reducing Skin problems and clearing up any underlying imbalances allowing for them to occur.

Experience has showed that quiet often there is an emotional or food related link to chronic Skin conditions (such as Psoriasis) - a marriage breakdown, stressful events, binges on certain types of foods....If a strong emotional link is found, in addition to Acupuncture and Herbs, Counselling is also strongly advised
