Discover the benefits of Chinese herbal medicine and acupuncture in Melbourne, addressing inflammatory skin conditions like acne, eczema and psoriasis for clearer, healthier skin.

Chinese medicine for healthy skin

In Chinese medicine, your skin is a mirror of your internal well-being. Imbalances in digestion, hormones, the immune system, and the nervous system, as well as dietary habits and environmental factors, can all affect your skin. Skin conditions do more than just irritate; they can significantly impact your confidence and emotional health.

Chinese medicine can be used to address skin conditions including:

Eczema
Psoriasis
Acne
Rosacea
Urticaria (Hives)

Instead of just focusing on the surface, we embrace a holistic approach to vibrant, healthy skin, diving deeper to address skin conditions like acne, eczema, and psoriasis. We look beyond visible symptoms—such as itching, lesions, and scaling—to explore the root causes, including gut health, immune function, hormonal balance, and mental well-being.

Let’s uncover the causes of your skin issues, from dietary and environmental triggers to internal imbalances, and create a personalised treatment plan. This holistic approach not only relieves inflammation, itching, and breakouts but also addresses the underlying issues, paving the way for sustainable healthy skin.

Ways to improve skin health:

Reduce inflammation, redness, swelling and discomfort.
Cool “heat”: targeting itching, breakouts, and irritation.
Improve digestion and toxin elimination
Address hormonal imbalances
Boost circulation to clear blockages
Regulate immune response

Our approach combines the power of internal herbs with topical herbal skincare to heal the skin inside and out. Acupuncture or cupping can reduce inflammation and balance your immune and nervous systems. Dietary therapy is also key – by identifying and avoiding trigger foods while embracing those that nourish your body, you’ll make lasting changes that support clear, healthy skin.
