I have had psoriasis since I was 13 years old. It was itchy, flakey, red and noticeable. I first got it on my scalp which lead to hair loss. Then after a few years, the psoriasis was on my skin, back and arms... I went to modern medicine since my early teens, and they gave me all kinds of drug medications, oils and creams, but the psoriasis would always come back. There were no results from 6-7 years of drug medicine treatments... I began treatments with acupuncture and herbal medicine... I started getting healthier and my skin started clearing up. I noticed a difference in April - 4 months after starting treatments. Finally, my skin is soft and healthy! I am now able to go out without red or flaking skin, and I have gotten more compliments. I have more energy and I am feeling better about myself. - A.D., Tustin, CA
HOW IS PSORIASIS TREATED WITH ACUPUNCTURE?
PSORIASIS
Psoriasis is an autoimmune disease that accelerates the life cycle of the skin cells. They cause the dead skin to buildup on the surface, leading to red lesions with thick silvery scale patches. Psoriasis is commonly found on the elbows, knees, scalps, lower back, face, palm, and soles of feet, but they may show up anywhere. Psoriasis tends to flare up for a few weeks or months, and then subsiding from time to time. People with psoriasis also have other serious health conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, and depression.
PSORIASIS SYMPTOMS
Depending on the severity of the condition, symptoms of psoriasis may vary in each individual. The most common symptoms include red patches covered with thick, silvery scales, small scaling spot, dry, and cracked skin. Psoriasis can feel itchy, burning, or soreness. They may have swollen and stiff joints.
Risk Factors are:
Having one or both parents with psoriasis.
Weak immunity
Obesity
Smoking
TREATMENT FOR PSORIASIS
There is no cure for psoriasis. Psoriasis can be treated by topical treatments, light therapy, and systemic medications. Several topical creams and ointments help reduce inflammation, relieve itching, promote sloughing of dead skin, and slow down skin cell growth for individuals with mild to moderate psoriasis. Light therapy uses natural or artificial ultraviolet light to expose skin cells to light. Light therapy helps slows skin cell turnover and reduces scaling and inflammation in an individual with mild to moderate psoriasis. Systemic treatments help treat individuals with severe psoriasis. Oral or injected medication helps decrease skin cell production and suppresses inflammation. Not all treatments are intended for long term use due to serious side effects.
ACUPUNCTURE TO BENEFIT PSORIASIS
Acupuncture and herbal medicine induce homeostatic response on the cellular level by influencing the body's internal organs to correct imbalances in their digestion, absorption, and energy production activities. They stimulate the nervous system to release chemicals in the muscles, spinal cord, and brain. These chemicals will change the experience of pain, or they will trigger the release of other chemicals and hormones which influence the body's own internal regulation system. Acupuncture helps psoriasis by correcting the production of T cells and white blood cells, reduce inflammation, and improve their quality of life. Acupuncture is safe and painless. There are no drugs or hazardous equipment used, and no surgical operation performed.

PSORIASIS SYMPTOMS
Plaque Psoriasis is a widespread type of psoriasis. It characterized by thick plaque, patchy, red rashes. The rashes are oval to circular in shape; with white, silvery scales. Psoriasis often shows up on the lower back, elbows, scalp and knees. This chronic inflammatory skin condition is not contagious. aq Various types of Psoriasis are (eg, Psoriasis, Nails; Guttate Psoriasis; Psoriatric Arthritis; Psoriasis, Pustular. Psoriasis is more prevalent in adults than in children.
POSSIBLE CAUSES
Instead of fighting off invading pathogens, the immune system causes an inflammatory response and hyper proliferation of the skin cells occurs. The “T-cells” (white blood cells) become hyperactive attacking the skin; this causes the skin cells to multiply rapidly and they begin to form on the epidermis (surface layer of skin). Healthy skin cells develop, mature and every 30 days slough off. With plaque psoriasis, this process is 3-6 days; which causes the thick plaque formation of the skin cells. T-cells also form chemicals that heal the skin. These cells produce an unusual amount of the chemicals and result in more inflammation in the skin and joints. Psoriasis can appear like other skin conditions and this makes diagnosis of the disease difficult. A skin sample is taken and examined under a microscope.
TREATMENT USING MODERN MEDICINE
Management of psoriasis includes topical corticosteroids which aid as anti-inflammatory agents. These drugs suppress the immune system to slow down the growth of skin cells. Here are a few drugs used to treat Plaque Psoriasis; Anthralin, Vitamin D analogues, topical retinoids, calcineurin inhibitors. Methotrexate (also used to slow down cells that are rapidly growing in the body such as cancer cells, bone marrow cells and skin cells) is one of the oral drugs used in treating Plaque Psoriasis. Some side effects of this drug are nausea, vomiting, upset stomach, dizziness, tired feeling, headaches, bleeding gums and blurred vision. Although these drugs aid in the production of normal skin proliferation and are prescribed in various doses there are some side effects such as – photosensitivity (topical agents). UVB Therapy and Psoralen (oral) is a form of light therapy and oral drug to increase sensitivity to UVB light. This form of therapy is used to kill T-cells, which are the white cells invading the affected are of the skin causing inflammation. Precaution must be taken to ensure there is no sun burn in the areas the medication is applied.
ACUPUNCTURE TO BENEFIT PSORIASIS
Acupuncture causes the anti-inflammatory mechanisms to release and it reduces the redness associated with psoriasis. Acupuncture also reduces stress and anxiety which are triggers of psoriasis. Acupuncture is also safe because disposable sterile needles are used in the treatment of acupuncture. Also, there are no harmful or discomforting side effects such as those listed above for the treatment of psoriasis. There are also topical herbal creams and herbal supplement that can be used in the treatment of psoriasis and all are prescribed by a licensed acupuncturist. All herbs should be taken under the care of a Licensed Acupuncture to ensure maximum results and compliance. Natural medicine is used to treat the root of the disease and not the symptomatic manifestations of the underlying cause.
CASE STUDIES
The direction of treatment is to try and contain or deactivate T-cells that are causing the hyper proliferation in the skin. What triggers the activation of T-cells is not well understood. UVB light therapy and Psoralen (PUVB) is becoming a popular form of treatment for psoriasis. Just as there are side effects to oral drugs to manage Psoriasis studies show there is a risk for squamous cell cancer (SCC) and basal cell cancer (BCC).
“Exposure to more than 350 PUVA treatments greatly increases the risk of SCC,” the authors write. “The risks of SCC in long-term PUVA-treated patients should be considered in determining the risk of this therapy relative to other treatments for severe psoriasis.” – RobertS. Stern, MD

”Finally My Skin is Soft and Healthy!”
“I am now able to go out without red or flaking skin, and I have gotten more compliments. I have more energy and I am feeling better about myself.”
I have had psoriasis since I was 13 years old. It was itchy, flakey, red and noticeable. I first got it on my scalp which led to hair loss. Then after a few years, the psoriasis was on my skin, back and arms. I was self conscious and I could not wear a lot of clothes. I went to modern medicine since my early teens, and they gave me all kinds of drug medications, oils and creams, but the psoriasis would always come back. There were no results from 6-7 years of drug medicine treatments.
I came to the Natural Medicine Center in January, 2007. I had heard about natural medicine treatments, but never used it, and I wasn’t sure that it would work. I began treatments with acupuncture and herbal medicine. The combination of herbs and acupuncture really helped.
I started getting healthier and my skin started clearing up. I noticed a difference in April - 4 months after starting treatments. Finally, my skin is soft and healthy! I am now able to go out without red or flaking skin, and I have gotten more compliments. I have more energy and I am feeling better about myself.
I am happy with the results and I know that natural medicine works. The staff is very nice and friendly. I encourage others to have an open mind and stick by it because it does work. I would refer others and tell them about the benefits from the natural way.
Sincerely, A.D.
