What is Eczema and Psoriasis

The largest human organ is the skin. Skin is the front line protection against the outside elements. The skin guards internal organs against sunburn, dirt, bacteria, and other dangers.

Skin problems cause many people emotional pain and suffering. Some skin conditions are severe enough to cause depression. In many cases, healing the emotional scars related to a skin condition can take even longer than treating the physical problem.

What is eczema & psoriasis?

Eczema is a form of dermatitis, or inflammation of the upper layers of the skin. The term ‘eczema’ is broadly applied to a range of persistent or recurring skin rashes characterized by redness, skin edema, itching and dryness, with possible crusting, flaking, blistering, cracking, oozing or bleeding.

Psoriasis comes from the Greek word 'to itch'. Psoriasis is an auto immune disorder which affects the skin and joints. It commonly causes red scaly patches to appear on the skin. The scaly patches caused by psoriasis (called psoriatic plaques or lesions) are areas of excessive skin production and inflammation. Skin rapidly accumulates at these sites and takes a silvery-white appearance. Plaques frequently occur on the skin of the elbows and knees, but can affect any area including the scalp and genitals.

Natural Remedies

Eczema and psoriasis can be treated by using a range of natural herbs, essential oils and homoeopathic ingredients such as aloe vera, liquorice, calendula, evening primrose oil, lavender oil, chamomile oil, bergamot oil and sandalwood oil which can provide soothing relief for people with dry, irritated or inflamed skin conditions such as eczema, dermatitis or psoriasis.
