Treating Psoriasis
As with the symptoms and causes of psoriasis, we can also speculate how to treat the disease by looking into how nature deals with the same problem. So how can we make a dried out riverbed into a moist and nourishing soil? We fuel in more water and nutrients than are going out. We could also try to make the underground water streams supply more water and nutrients up onto the surface. In extreme dried out situations, we could also dig into the dried out soil and make a well so deep underground water could come out to the surface more easily. This is exactly how our clinic treats psoriasis. We use herbal medication and acupuncture treatments to strengthen the flow of the qi and blood thus enabling the body fluids and nutrients to be supplied more readily to the skin. Also we prescribe specially devised hyperthermal therapies and diet programs that help the patient body to rapidly return to a healthy moist and smooth normal skin. Hyperthermal therapy is a specially devised therapy that Dr. Bon Young Suh L.Ac., KMD. has developed to improve blood and Qi circulation of the skin. This therapy, along with the help of herbal medication and acupuncture treatment, helps strengthen the immune energy of the body in fighting off the antigen that is causing psoriasis in the first place. Our clinic uses hot baths, steam baths, balneotherapy, sun tanning or phototherapy and other methods to increase the body temperature into strengthening the general blood circulation and the Qi flow of the body.
