Child Eczema

​

So atopic eczema usually has more than one single cause. It can be chronic and most people have it for life. Often there is a family history. There may be toxic reactions from the gut, for example medical pharmaceuticals, with accompanying allergies. 

​

Conventional treatment for red dry patches of skin in the creases, elbows, around neck, hands face and scalp is initially hydrocortisone 1 - 3 %. When it is stopped symptoms return or change on use to weepy skin. The steroids supress the eczema and push it deeper into the system but it keeps coming back. The conventional answer is stronger steroids. 

​

Eczema is am immune system response. The skin being the largest organ of the body throws off symptoms on the skin surfaces to protect the more inaccessible internal organs. 

​

I take a full case history from even the mothers pregnancy to up to date including any medical intervention. ( Approx one hour)

​

This gives me an individual outline plan.  

* Treat the gut. We have wonderful gut remedies discovered in the 1920s. Support the liver and kidneys to detox with a more herbal potency. Diet and vitamin advice. Acute remedy advice for potential flares in between follow ups. Help and advice in between appointments. ( 2 - 3 monthly.) 

​

The stronger the steroid the deeper it goes so takes longer to clear sometimes. This is done by reducing gradually and perhaps diluting weaker steroids in stages. 

​

Gut health is key. 

​

The various strengths of steroidal applications come in a "one size fits all." Its quite alarming that they do not resolve. How to get off them now? 

 

I find it best not to remove my patients from their steroid creams and similar for the first three months while homeopathy is doing its hardest work. I am often initially treating the gut health. There may be toxins from antibiotics and raised gut sensitivity from child vaccinations.

​

​

​

Follow up is booked for two to three months after the consultation and costs £70. I can offer support in between appointments. 

​

I live in Kent in the UK and consult internationally via Zoom or Skype. 

​

Your reasons for eczema are completely unique to you and a full case history allows me to begin treatment.

​

 

Homeopaths have much fewer patients than a GP or specialist due to the time they take with each case.

I have 20 years of experience with patients across the board. 

​

As a family its always our first port of call and for 20 million people worldwide. 

​

Why not book a free 20-minute meeting to see if you would like to work with me.  Homeopathy clears from the inside out without just suppressing the symptoms.​​

​

The aim is to resolve and homeopathy as a safe medicine is a number one above all others.
