Psoriasis is a chronic skin condition which
can target skin, nails and even joints.

The autoimmune condition is a result of the
body creating new skin cells faster than older

This leads to an avalanche of skin cells;
they pile up, push up and leave the skin looking

Also, these silvery patches itch continuously.

So what's at the root of this skin cell
build up?

It can stem from many causes, including diabetes,
high levels of stress, obesity, medications

Infections can also worsen the condition.

Although there is no absolute cure for psoriasis,
symptoms can be controlled by topical oils.

In today's video we'll review a few specific
types of oil treatment.

This oil, which is from the leaves of the
Melaleuca tree, contains antiseptic and anti-inflammatory

These can provide much needed relief from
redness, itching, and burning sensations.

Since tree tea oil is potent, it should always
be diluted with water or other oils.

Applying full strength could result in irritation
and burning sensations.

To create your own solution for application
of the scalp, nails or skin, follow these

In a small cup of water, mix in a few drops
of tea tree oil

Dab a cotton ball into the solution to moisten
Apply the solution to the skin, scalp or nails

Allow it to remain overnight
In the morning wash the areas and pat dry

Other natural moisturizers such as olive or
coconut oil can also provide a soothing effect.

After bathing, you may want to add a drop
or two of tea tree oil with your daily moisturizer.

An immersion in a tub of water enhanced with
tea tree oil can provide a world of relief

Simply add a few drops of tea tree oil, almond
oil, or olive oil to your bathwater.

Dry itchy skin that's under attack by psoriasis?

First, make sure your shampoo contains very
few chemicals.

Mix 1 part of tea tree oil with 10 parts shampoo
Once completely blended, shampoo your hair

Rinse your hair thoroughly with warm water
Repeat as needed

You may also check your health and beauty
aisles for shampoos that already contain tea

Consult your dermatologist before using any
type of topical treatment

Remember tea tree oil is too potent for any
direct application

Use 2 – 5% concentration of tea tree oil
in homemade remedies

Always perform a patch test on healthy skin.

If you observe adverse reactions, do not use.

If the symptoms of psoriasis become worse
instead of better, stop using it.
