Skin Problems and Detox
Restore balance and achieve healthier skin with Traditional Chinese Medicine
Understanding Skin Conditions
The skin is the bodys largest organ and is often a reflection of internal health. Many skin conditions arise due to toxins, imbalances, or external environmental factors.
According to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), external factors such as Wind, Dampness, Dryness, or Heat can invade the body and cause skin disorders, while internal imbalances like Blood Stasis, Liver and Kidney Disharmony, or Blood Deficiency often manifest on the skin.
Why Detox for Healthy Skin?
Skin inflammation is often a sign of internal toxins. While creams and topical treatments can help, the best approach is detoxificationexpelling toxins from within to prevent recurring issues.
Acupuncture can help by:
- Reducing inflammation
- Calming itching and irritation
- Regulating blood circulation
- Supporting hormonal balance
