Eczema (and skin rash)

Eczema is a common skin condition but often uncomfortable. On the milder side, it causes irritation and itching, and on the more extreme, it can disrupt sleep and make it difficult to concentrate. Those with eczema may often feel self-conscious or embarrassed, especially if people stare, or mistakenly assume your condition is contagious. 

Eczema is a potential red flag – our body telling us something isn’t quite right. Because our skin is the largest organ, it operates as an important alert system for imbalances in our digestive, endocrine and immune systems as well as allergies and hormonal regulation. So, we like to take a look at what is going on inside the body, in particular, the digestive system and liver. Our naturopaths use testing to identify the root cause of your eczema.
