Our skin is our biggest organ. It just happens to be on the outside of us! Our skins main function is to act as a barrier to the external world. It protects us from heat, cold, moisture and helps to regulate our body temperature. The sense of touch is one of our main 5 senses and can bring comfort to all ages.
However, this barrier can become compromised when damage occurs through physical cuts or abrasions, cracks from dry skin or even blisters from minor burns. Skin conditions such as eczema, hives, psoriasis, and minor infections can all affect the skin protective function.
The emotional component of skin conditions is often overlooked by conventional medicine. If you have an unsightly blemish on your face, or psoriasis on your arm, then your confidence will be affected. People may stare at you or ask intrusive questions. Even if the area of skin affected can be easily covered up, you know it is there. Daily activities such as washing your face or having a shower may be painful or complicated. This can really takes it toll on your confidence. Everyone should have the feeling of being truly comfortable in their own skin.
Homeopathy can not only address the physical symptoms of skin conditions such as itching or burning, but helps to deal with the emotional side of things too.
roach by investigating the ROOT CAUSE. Why is your skin reacting this way? What’s triggering the flare-ups? What needs healing from within?
