Dermatological Conditions
Dermatological Conditions Treated with Acupuncture & Chinese Herbal Medicine in Glasgow
Clearer Skin Through Traditional Healing
Skin conditions can deeply affect quality of life, confidence, and comfort. At RDT Acupuncture Glasgow, we use the power of Traditional Chinese Medicine to address chronic and acute dermatological conditions from the inside out.
We combine acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, and diet/lifestyle recommendations to address root causes like heat, dampness, toxins, and imbalances in internal organ systems.
Conditions We Treat
Acne is often caused by excess heat, dampness, or hormonal imbalance. Acupuncture reduces inflammation and promotes detoxification, while herbs clear heat and balance the internal environment, helping prevent breakouts.
These conditions stem from wind, dampness, and internal heat, often related to Liver and Spleen imbalances. Treatment soothes itching, reduces inflammation, and supports skin repair. Herbal formulas may include calming, anti-inflammatory and blood-purifying ingredients
Psoriasis is treated by cooling the blood, clearing heat, and nourishing Yin. Acupuncture and herbs help manage flare-ups, reduce scaling and itching, and support immune balance
Often linked to allergic reactions or stress-related internal wind. Acupuncture helps calm the system and reduce recurrence. Herbs clear toxins and stabilise the immune response.
Chinese medicine views herpes as damp-heat accumulation. Treatment focuses on reducing outbreaks, relieving pain, and boosting immune resilience. Herbs may be used internally and topically.
