Psoriasis (commonly known as psoriasis) is a common chronic skin disease characterized by red spots and silvery-white scales on the skin. At Guiyuan Traditional Chinese Medicine, we use traditional Chinese medicine methods to treat psoriasis, aiming to fundamentally adjust the body's constitution and internal balance, thereby achieving the goal of relieving symptoms and reducing recurrence. Here are the main treatment strategies we use for psoriasis:
1. Oral administration of traditional Chinese medicine for treatment
According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, the occurrence of psoriasis is related to blood heat, blood dryness, wind dryness and liver and kidney deficiency. During treatment, Guiyuan Traditional Chinese Medicine will prepare personalized Chinese medicine prescriptions, such as Longxuejie Pills, Modified Xiaoyao Powder, etc. These prescriptions can help clear away heat and detoxify, nourish the liver and kidneys, moisturize dryness and relieve itching, thereby improving skin symptoms.
2. External application of traditional Chinese medicine
For local skin symptoms, Guiyuan Traditional Chinese Medicine provides a variety of topical Chinese ointments or lotions. These products contain herbal ingredients such as Cortex Phellodendron and Smilax Poria, which can be directly applied to the affected area to help reduce inflammation, remove scales and soothe itchy skin.
3. Dietary adjustments and lifestyle suggestions
In the process of treating psoriasis, proper diet and lifestyle adjustments are an important part that cannot be ignored. Guiyuan Traditional Chinese Medicine advises patients to avoid spicy, greasy and potentially allergenic foods to avoid irritating the skin or aggravating symptoms. It is recommended to eat light, vitamin- and trace-element-rich foods, such as fresh fruits and vegetables and whole grains, to promote skin health.
4. Acupuncture and moxibustion treatment
Acupuncture and moxibustion can effectively regulate the flow of Qi and blood in the body, and are particularly beneficial for chronic conditions such as psoriasis. By stimulating specific acupuncture points, such as Xuehai point and Sanyinjiao point, it can help improve blood circulation and reduce the inflammatory reaction of the skin.
At Guiyuan Traditional Chinese Medicine, we are committed to providing comprehensive and in-depth treatments to help psoriasis patients achieve long-term symptom control and improve their quality of life. We believe that by combining traditional Chinese medicine’s internal and external treatments with lifestyle adjustments, we can provide patients with a comprehensive treatment plan.
