Chronic Skin Conditions and Naturopathic Care by Dr. Jordan Atkinson

Chronic skin conditions can impact millions of people, and individuals may suffer pains, disruptions, and feelings of frustration when diagnosed with one or more chronic skin conditions. Common conditions include eczema, psoriasis, acne, and rosacea. Many of the skin conditions listed can last for prolonged periods, from months to years, without variable improvement. Many people live an exhausting cycle of creams, medications, and treatments without ever obtaining any relief.

Naturopathy evaluates health from a wider range of viewpoints rather than only the symptom. It will seek to find and treat the causes of chronic conditions and retain a holistic approach.

Support for Stress: What is Naturopathy?

Naturopathy is a form of medicine that promotes a person’s natural ability to heal. It combines aspects of modern science and traditional methods of healing, such as herbal medicine, nutrition, lifestyle medicine, and stress management.

As a naturopathic doctor, I consider your entire health picture, not just your skin. Each patient is individual; the same disease process can occur in different people and stem from other causes. This is why each treatment plan is individualized and holistically created.

How Naturopathy Supports Skin Conditions

Many skin conditions reflect a chronic internal problem. The subtle signs of poor digestion, hormonal imbalances, food sensitivities, or chronic stress can all be visible externally in the skin. As Dr. Jordan Atkinson, I begin my practice with a thorough assessment. I ask about your diet, applicable habits, sleep, stress, and medical history.

Depending on what you present, I may recommend one or more of the following

• Diet

Removing trigger foods and adding healing nutrients can help support skin health from within.

• Herbal medicine

Certain herbs will reduce inflammation, allowing the skin to repair itself.

• Supplements

Vitamins A, D, and zinc are all helpful for skin health.

• Detoxification

Supporting the liver and digestive organs to help clear the skin naturally

Healing Begins at the Root

I look for long-term healing. When you can identify and remedy the root cause, the symptoms can often lessen (or even disappear). Many patients have been successful and gotten long-term help with this medical philosophy.

Demonstrating Real Results with Personalized Care

I have had the immense pleasure of working with many patients dealing with chronic skin conditions, many after attempting treatment for many years. Through patient collaboration and developing a specific plan tailored to their needs, we achieved real results despite the significant time and effort involved in this process.

I am thinking of 1 patient in particular who had struggled with severe and lifelong eczema. Working closely together, we had her set new long-term goals and achieved significant progress by addressing diet and liver function. I am also thinking of a patient who was able to go off pharma drugs and achieve clear skin and full function painlessly and side-effect-free by dealing with underlying hormone imbalances and eliminating sugar and processed foods.

All of these stories began with considering a plan and having the ongoing support needed.

As Dr. Jordan Atkinson, I hope to provide you with the calmness, professionalism, and feeling of being truly understood that you have been looking for. I treat you, not your symptoms, with a personal, holistic, and comprehensive wellness strategy extraordinary to our situation.

Why Naturopathy for your skin?

When it comes to your skin, you don’t have to keep covering up your issues. You deserve a healing pathway that respects your body and story. Naturopathic care is safe, natural, and evidence-based.

As Dr. Jordan Atkinson, I pride myself on honest care and transparent communication. I will outline every process step and support you along the way. You are not a patient; you are a partner in your healing.
