What is Psoriasis and Who is Affected?

Psoriasis is a chronic skin condition that affects over 8 million people in the UK alone. It is a common autoimmune disease that causes skin cells to grow and multiply rapidly, resulting in thick, red, scaly patches on the skin. These patches, also known as plaques, can be itchy, painful, and embarrassing. They are most commonly found on the elbows, knees, scalp, and lower back, but can appear anywhere on the body.

Who is Affected by Psoriasis?

Psoriasis affects people of all ages, races, and genders. However, it is most commonly diagnosed in people between the ages of 15 and 35, and it is estimated that around 10% of those with the condition will develop it before the age of 10.

Remedies for Psoriasis

There are several treatments available for psoriasis, including creams, ointments, and oral medications. Light therapy is also commonly used to help reduce the symptoms of psoriasis.
At The Clinic Room, we actively treat for psoriasis using LED Light Therapy and our Health Assessment. LED Light Therapy is a non-invasive, pain-free treatment that uses light to penetrate the skin, reducing inflammation and promoting the growth of healthy skin cells. Our Health Assessment helps to identify any deficiencies in the body that may be contributing to the development of psoriasis, and our practitioners will work with you to develop a tailored treatment plan to meet your individual needs.
