What is Naturopathic Medicine for Skin Health?
Naturopathic Medicine for Skin Health is a holistic approach to skincare that involves a comprehensive assessment of all factors that may be contributing to your skin concerns. For many patients, acne, eczema, wrinkles and scarring may be due to cellular issues that lead to internal imbalances in their bodies. By understanding the factors in your life, personalized skin treatments involving natural supplements can be tailored to improve your skin health.
As an example, many skin issues may arise from:
- Stress
- Hormonal imbalances
- Nutritional deficiencies, diet and food sensitivities
- Digestive health
- Inflammatory conditions
