Weather getting under your SKIN? Dry? Itchy? Think ALLERGIES.

I often see children for any number of conditions but most commonly it is for allergies.  Allergic responses are not just from airborne allergies but can also be due to contact allergies to the skin as well as food allergies.  Common signs of hidden allergies include persistent ear, throat, or sinus infections, respiratory conditions, fatigue, mood disorders and hyperactivity, and commonly skin conditions. 

Skin symptoms can be some of the hardest to clear but most gratifying when they do.  When we first saw this particular youngster they had terrible rash called dermatitis (eczema) on the hands and legs and face.  The mother had tried the standard medical treatments with very little success.  Of course she was concerned about using these drugs on her child as well.

We tested the child for food allergies and removed those foods that were inhibiting the immune system.  We removed chemicals from the diet as well as chemicals in the soaps, detergents, and artificial fabrics.  We made sure the child was bathing in chlorine-free water.  We added in some vital nutrients and a topical ointment that was designed to heal the skin. 

Seeing the child today I was so impressed with the power of the Healing Force within each of us.  You wouldn’t believe that it was the same child’s skin -- it was that much improved!!  No more itching, cracking, painful rashes.  The mother couldn’t have been more pleased with the results.

Or visit me at my clinic TRILIUM HEALTH and read about food allergies and the testing we do.
Be Well!
