Psoriasis Treatment
Causes of Perioral Dermatitis
The condition known as psoriasis typically arises after the skin has been cut, scratched, or severely sunburned. The skin becomes inflamed, producing red, thickened areas with silvery scales, most often on the scalp, elbows, knees, or lower back. Because of the inflammation, the skin sheds rapidly - every three to four days.
Psoriasis Treatment - cure psoriasis the natural way
Since Psoriasis is most likely to strike people whose skin cells have lost their capacity to retain adequate moisture, the most direct way to treat psoriasis is to help the skin regain its moisture retention capacity. Just moisturizing your skin isn't enough. When a moisturizer is applied, it hydrates the cells, but the cells quickly lose the moisture. If substances that work synergistically together to restore the skin cells' elasticity are applied to the skin, then as the healing progresses, the cells continue to admit moisture as before, but after the healing are better able to keep it from escaping.
Shea butter is a wonderful agent for revitalizing our skin cells so that they regain their moisture retention capacity. Unrefined shea butter not only contains a high moisturizing fraction, but also contains an extraordinarily high healing fraction. The essential oils that can work with shea butter to effectively treat psoriasis include
Bergamot, Lavender.
The following Karite Gold products are particularly effective for psoriasis. Click on either of the products to find out more about them.
When using shea butter as a psoriasis treatment, apply a moderate amount of Karite Gold to the areas of your skin that are affected by psoriasis.
After you have coated an area of your skin with shea butter, spend some time making sure that the shea butter works its way down under the surface of your skin. Move your fingers in a circular motion as you apply the shea butter.
