Skin Conditions

Acupuncture and herbal medicine are highly effective at clearing heat, redness, swelling and inflammation from the skin, while providing relief from signs and symptoms such as itching, acne, dryness, rashes and hives. Circle Acupuncture & Wellness Clinic can provide natural non-pharmacological relief from the symptoms of conditions such as atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, urticaria (hives), eczema and allergic rhinitis (hay fever).

Acupuncture successfully reduces or eliminates the symptoms of itchiness, redness and inflammation that accompany many skin conditions, dermatological disorders and systemic diseases. As a result of diminishing the need to itch, there is less scratching, less skin damage and less potential for infection.

Many medicinal plants such as aloe vera, dandelion, indigo, lavender and witch hazel may be used topically to heal burns, calm inflamed skin, dry up oozing areas of the skin and relieve itching. Herbal remedies, healthy foods, vitamins and nutritional supplements may be ingested to improve skin conditions. Some foods support healthy skin, while other foods may worsen a skin condition. For this reason, a detailed evaluation of food and beverage intake is done to optimize skin care and the efficacy of the treatment.
