Holistic Approaches to Skin Disorders
In this blog, we explore holistic approaches to skin disorders. Skin conditions such as acne, eczema, boils, rosacea, and psoriasis are often perceived as only surface-level issues, but they can actually be manifestations of internal imbalances. So if you have tried everything under the sun in regards to topical treatments for your skin issues but nothing seems to work, it could be your body’s way of alarming you that something is not right inside. So here we uncover the internal factors that might be contributing to or triggering your skin concerns. We explore a range of potential causes including hormonal imbalances, gut health, liver and immune dysfunction, and how they all impact skin health. Plus we provide our holistic natural approaches for managing and treating these skin conditions.
The Internal Factors Affecting Skin Health
- Gut Health: The gut-skin connection is massive in managing skin health. An imbalanced gut microbiome, often referred to as gut dysbiosis, can lead to various inflammatory skin conditions. This is particularly relevant for autoimmune conditions like psoriasis, where gut health plays a significant role. The majority of all autoimmune diseases have an element of gut dysbiosis, underscoring the importance of maintaining a healthy gut microbiome. By leveraging our Nutripath pathology, we conduct detailed microbiome mapping to thoroughly understand your gut health. This precise evaluation then guides us in crafting a personalized action plan tailored to your specific needs and health goals.
- Immune System Health: The skin is a part of the innate immune system but when the acquired immune system kicks in and dysfunctions that is when skin issues can arise. This is why it is so important to evaluate the immune responses when dealing with skin health, as a dysfunctional immune system or one locked in a specific response for too long can create multiple health problems. These include increased vulnerability to parasites and pathogens, as well as a higher risk of infections, inflammation, autoimmune disorders, and food intolerances. Such complications can both compromise skin health and intensify existing skin conditions. To address these challenges, we provide customized recommendations and plans encompassing diet, exercise, supplements, and probiotics, all aligned with your unique immune response. Additionally, our specialized health programs are geared towards resetting and optimizing immune responses. This holistic and personalized approach is designed not only to facilitate healing but also to prevent further health issues, ensuring a comprehensive strategy for your overall well-being.
- Liver Health & Toxicity Issues: A variety of skin issues can signal liver dysfunction, a vital organ responsible for crucial processes like toxin filtration, hormone balance, nutrient absorption, and managing insulin resistance. Impairments in these liver functions often present as diverse skin conditions. To address liver-related skin problems, our comprehensive detox program is designed to rejuvenate liver health. It includes personalized assessments of your immune system, alongside targeted supplements and detoxification strategies tailored to suit different environmental and lifestyle factors. This approach aims to restore your liver’s functionality, thereby improving your overall skin health.
- Hormonal Imbalances: Hormonal changes significantly impact skin health. Chronic adult acne, for instance, can indicate low estrogen and progesterone levels and high androgen levels, potentially signaling conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome. These hormonal imbalances can also lead to excess sebum production, contributing to acne outbreaks. During pregnancy or menopause, hormonal shifts may cause itchy skin, and dry skin is often a symptom of menopause or thyroid issues. Therefore, these hormonal fluctuations can initiate or intensify various skin-related issues. Conducting a thorough evaluation of your hormone levels is crucial, as hormones significantly influence various functions across the body. Imbalances can have wide-ranging effects on overall health and well-being.
- Poor Lymphatic Health: An efficient lymphatic system helps dispel toxins that affect skin and immune health. A sluggish lymphatic system can lead to problems like acne and loss of skin elasticity. Undergoing a lymphatic assessment can be incredibly beneficial, as it helps determine if improving lymphatic function could enhance your overall health and well-being.
- Chronic Inflammation: Poor lifestyle and dietary habits can be key factors in chronic inflammation, which often results in skin issues. Our health programs, alongside our complimentary root cause analysis, are designed to help you overcome and manage these challenges effectively, guiding you towards healthier lifestyle choices and dietary habits for improved skin health.
- Nutritional Deficiencies From Poor Dietary Choices:
A lack of vital nutrients like vitamins D, E, B12, and omega-3 fatty acids can negatively impact your skin’s health. Additionally, high consumption of coffee and alcohol, combined with a diet rich in processed foods, can exacerbate conditions such as eczema and psoriasis. Our health programs focus on identifying and rectifying these nutritional deficiencies and dietary imbalances, offering personalized guidance to promote healthier skin and overall wellbeing. - Stress: Chronic stress not only weakens the immune system but also aggravates skin issues. Effective stress management is key to maintaining healthy skin. In our programs, we teach PNEI (Psycho-Neuro-Endocrine-Immunology) techniques along with a variety of stress management strategies to help you effectively manage stress, bolstering both your skin health and overall well-being.
- Chemical Exposure: Regular exposure to harmful chemicals, either from environmental sources or skincare products, can upset the skin’s natural equilibrium, leading to various skin conditions. Our role is to educate you about common products and chemicals that may seem harmless but can actually be detrimental to your skin. Furthermore, we provide alternative recommendations for safer, skin-friendly options, helping you maintain healthier skin by avoiding harmful substances.
Conclusion
Addressing both internal and external factors is crucial for effectively managing skin conditions. Adopting a holistic approach that includes dietary changes, eliminating chemical exposure, utilising natural therapies, stress management techniques, and using natural skin care products can all lead to long-lasting skin health improvements.
