Don't scratch that itch ...

Check out these natural ways to treat dermatitis and psoriasis!

 
Severe skin irritations like psoriasis and dermatitis effect hundreds of millions of people around the world with symptoms ranging from irritated itchy, red, flaky or raised skin to joint pain and severe dandruff.
 
It’s Psoriasis Month and we’ve put together some simple steps for preventing and managing skin flare-ups.
 
Psoriasis and dermatitis - including irritant contact dermatitis, allergic contact dermatitis and eczema - are not contagious and can occur at any stage of someone’s life, but a genetic predisposition or immune disorder increases their likelihood.
 
Certain things can trigger an attack or make these conditions worse – bacterial or viral infections, dry air, skin injuries, stress, and alcohol to name a few.
 
There is no cure for psoriasis or dermatitis, but there are natural treatments available for preventing outbreaks and alleviating symptoms.
 
Here are a few we recommend...

Tea Tree Oil ...

Mix five drops of Pure Tea Tree Oil with 10mls of quality cold pressed oil and apply to the affected area with a cotton ball or try our Soothing Lotion.

Other tips to help your symptoms include:

• Oatmeal baths can be soothing and may loosen scales. Simply mix one cup of organic oatmeal in a tub of warm water, lie back and relax.
   
• Sunlight can reduce symptoms or make them disappear, but it’s essential not to get sunburnt!
   
• Relaxation and anti-stress exercises may also be helpful.
