Skin Disorders

Your skin has a story. Let’s get to the root of it together

Conditions we commonly support:

  • Acne
  • Eczema
  • Psoriasis
  • Rosacea
  • Hives or chronic rashes

Your skin is more than just a reflection of your outer beauty, it’s an indicator of your inner health. As the body’s largest organ, the skin plays a crucial role in protection, detoxification, temperature regulation, and even hormone production. When chronic skin issues arise, whether it’s acne, eczema, rosacea, or psoriasis, they often signal that something deeper is out of balance.

That’s where naturopathic medicine shines, treating skin from the inside out. While conventional treatments often focus on topical medications to suppress symptoms, naturopathic medicine takes a different approach. We aim to identify and treat the root cause of your skin concerns. In many cases, the foundation of skin health lies in the health of your digestive system, liver, hormones, and immune function.

When we work to balance the body’s internal systems, the skin begins to clear, become more calm calm, and heal naturally. My own health journey with rosacea is an example of this.

If you’re tired of quick fixes and want to understand the true cause of your skin issues, naturopathic care offers a thoughtful, evidence-informed, and personalized path forward. Your care plan may include:
  • Targeted dietary changes to reduce inflammation and identify food triggers
  • Gut healing protocolsto improve imbalances that affect the gut-skin axis
  • Hormone balance if this is the root of your skin issues
  • Liver support through IV therapy and/or supplementation
  • Stress management to support nervous system regulation and skin flare-ups
  • Topical treatments such as acupuncture and light therapy

Frequently Asked Questions

What you eat has a powerful impact on your skin. Inflammatory foods, food sensitivities, and poor blood sugar control can all contribute to skin conditions like acne, rosacea, eczema, and hives. Highly processed foods, dairy, or excess sugar are common triggers. By identifying your personal food triggers and shifting to an anti-inflammatory, nutrient-dense diet, we support skin healing from within. Your skin reflects your internal health, and diet is one of the most effective tools for long-term improvement. My own journey with papulopustular rosacea has involved a heavy focus on dietary changes.

It goes beyond managing symptoms by addressing the root causes of skin issues. We investigate internal imbalances such as poor gut health, hormonal disruptions, liver congestion, and immune dysregulation, which often drive chronic skin conditions. Rather than relying solely on creams or medications, we create a personalized treatment plan that supports healing from the inside out. This integrative, whole-body approach not only improves skin clarity and resilience but also enhances your overall well-being in the process.
Hormonal imbalances are a common driver of adult acne, especially when breakouts occur around the jawline, chin, and neck. Androgens like testosterone can increase oil production and inflammation, while shifts in estrogen and progesterone can disrupt skin health at different life stages, including puberty, postpartum, and perimenopause. We offer comprehensive hormone testing to uncover imbalances and design a tailored protocol that may include herbal support, nutrition, lifestyle strategies, or gentle hormone regulation to restore balance and promote clearer skin.
It may include anti-inflammatory dietary changes, gut healing protocols, hormone balancing, liver detoxification support, and nervous system regulation to reduce flare-ups. Depending on your needs, IV nutrient therapy, herbal medicine, and targeted supplementation may be recommended. Topical support like botanical skincare, acupuncture, or LED light therapy may also be included. The goal is to restore balance internally so your skin can heal naturally, sustainably, and holistically.
The timeline for skin healing depends on the root cause and how long the issue has been present. Many clients notice subtle improvements such as reduced redness or fewer breakouts, within 4 to 6 weeks of starting care. Deeper imbalances, such as hormonal or gut-related issues, may take 2–3 months or more to fully address. Because we treat the skin from the inside out, results are often gradual but lasting. Regular check-ins and adjustments ensure your treatment remains effective and personalized as your skin improves.

Yes. While internal healing is our primary focus, we understand the value of targeted topical support especially to reduce inflammation and soothe active flare-ups. Depending on your skin condition, we may recommend botanical serums, calming masks, or anti-inflammatory skincare formulations. Acupuncture and LED light therapy may also be used to calm redness, improve circulation, and support tissue repair. These therapies work in synergy with your internal treatment plan to help the skin recover faster and more completely.
