| | Dermatitis
- Eczema - Psoriasis | |
| We
know that dermatitis, eczema and psoriasis can cause a great deal of suffering:
Itchy skin - Constantly irritating skin is distracting, discomforting and deeply | |
| | distressing
to sufferers and their careers. | |
|
Restless sleep - Sufferers often have fitful and unrefreshing sleep when the | |
| | pain
and irresistible desire to scratch is made worse when the body becomes warm in
bed. | |
|
Embarrassment - Unsightly looking skin on hands and face and other exposed | |
| | parts
can cause embarrassment to sufferer. | |
|
Pain - Erupted, infected skin is extremely painful, the more the sufferer tries
to | |
| | relieve
the itch, the more painful the skin becomes. | |
|
Diminished Personality - Hands are used expressively, so moving them freely | |
| | can
often be painful and unsightly, hence sufferer's true personality can become diminished. | |
|
Anxiety - The combined effect of the above symptoms causes anxiety to build | |
| | up
in the sufferer's mind, anxiety expresses itself by making larger
areas of skin hypersensitive, this further increases anxiety until a 'vicious
cycle', of cause and effect develops. | |
| What
can Health Measures do to help? | |
| Health
Measures staff will guide you through a programme of tests and consultations
aimed at putting you in the 'driving seat', empowering you to take charge of your
health worries. | |
| The
programme includes:
Clinical tests (as required) | |
|
Urine testing, blood pressure, pulse rate, blood test, height, weight etc. | |
|
Dietary analysis and recommended treatment with essential nutrients | |
|
Explanation of the emotional and psychological relationship to the condition | |

| A
stay in a pollution free environment - We are sponsored by 'Ernie' and 'Bernie'
Wright who own The Horncastle Golf and Country Club. Set in beautiful Lincolnshire
countryside this club can offer an 'at cost' stay for Health
Measures clients. | |
| How
long is the programme? | |
| Initially
we expect to see clients weekly for the first couple of sessions. Then you will
be 'weaned off' so that we next see you after about three months, with follow
up visits after six months and a year, to check on progress. If desired, there
will, of course, be the opportunity for you to see us more frequently, but we
would expect your programme to be complete after circa five sessions. When
you talk to us at Health Measures Research
it will be the causes of your skins problems that we will try to isolate. Our
team at Health Measures is committed to using
the experiences you have and the knowledge we have, to guide you
through your problems, answering questions when we can to provide you with a possible
explanation for your skin condition and help to break the 'vicious circle'. Together
we will seek to find a management programme suited to you and your lifestyle which
will effectively control the skin eruptions and lead towards a cure. We do not
claim to have all the answers, but we do have the will to try to find them. Using
our methods and from our own experience 90% of cases can be controlled without
dependency on steroid creams. Using
our methods and your commitment, along with our experience
and expertise, we will together achieve. | |
