Skin Health: Healing from the Inside Out
Is your skin reflecting an internal imbalance?
Your skin is your body’s largest organ and its most honest storyteller. When you struggle with chronic acne, eczema, psoriasis, or unexplained rashes, your skin is often acting as a "backup" detoxification organ, trying to push out toxins or signaling that your immune system and gut are under stress.
Common skin conditions we support:
- Eczema & Dermatitis: Itchy, red, and inflamed patches that flare with stress or food.
- Acne (Teen & Adult): Often driven by a mix of hormonal shifts and gut dysbiosis.
- Psoriasis: An autoimmune response that causes rapid skin cell turnover and scaling.
- Hives & Urticaria: Sudden, itchy welts linked to histamine and mast cell activity.
- Early Aging & Discoloration: Premature wrinkles or melasma (pigmentation) often linked to liver health and oxidative stress.
The Root Causes: The Gut-Skin Axis
We believe that clear skin starts in the digestive tract and the liver. We investigate the "Why" behind your flare-ups:
- The Microbiome Connection: Specific gut bacteria influence the "leakiness" of your skin barrier.
- Hormonal Drivers: Oestrogen dominance or high androgens can "fuel" inflammatory acne.
- Mineral Deficiencies: Zinc, Vitamin A, and Selenium are the building blocks of skin repair. Without them, your skin can't heal.
- The "Toxic Bucket": Mycotoxins (mould) and heavy metals often manifest as chronic, "unsolvable" rashes.
Precision Testing for Radiant Skin
To stop the cycle of flare-ups, we need to see what is happening beneath the surface:
- GI Mapping: Our primary tool for skin health. We identify the "Gut-Skin Axis" by looking for pathogens and inflammation markers in the gut that are driving your skin's immune response.
- HTMA (Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis): Essential for acne and eczema. We check your Zinc levels (the "skin mineral") and look for heavy metal toxicity that might be irritating your system.
- EndoMap: For hormonal acne and melasma, we map your hormone metabolites to see how your liver is processing oestrogen and testosterone.
- Genetic Testing: To see if you have a predisposition to inflammation or if your body struggles to process certain nutrients like Vitamin D and Vitamin A.
- AVATAR Bio-Energetic Scanning: Provides a real-time assessment of the energetic stress on your liver, kidneys, and lymphatic system—your body's primary "filters."
Our Holistic Strategy for Skin Clarity
We move away from "suppressing" symptoms with creams and focus on long-term resolution:
- Gut & Liver Detoxification: Clearing the internal pathways so your skin doesn't have to do the "dirty work."
- Handcrafted Herbal Medicine: Using "Alterative" herbs (like Burdock, Nettle, and Cleavers) that traditionally cleanse the blood and soothe the skin.
- Barrier Support: Specific nutritional protocols to seal the gut and skin barriers from the inside out.
- Inflammation Cooling: Identifying and removing your specific dietary and environmental triggers.
