Those are certainly commonly treated conditions but each case is treated as an individual. So I suggest you find an acupuncturist locally (ideally one who also practices herbal medicine) and give them about 3 months and see how it goes. You should do well with an experienced practitioner. While generally all health issues are treated together by looking for common causes, the practitioner may have to fix your digestive issues first so you can better tolerate herbal medicine.

Dear Friend,

I so can relate to your experience of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. As Mr. Dupuis has recommended, I hope you will seek out a qualified acupuncturist and herbalist to help balance you. As a person who loves someone with severe psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis, I&#39d really like to recommend the book Healing Psoriasis by Dr. John Pagano. It has been an amazing experience. My loved one has tried every pill, potion, lotion and injectible on the market for over 20 years with little to no results - and some pretty scary side effects. Using Dr. Pagano&#39s diet is the ONLY thing that has made a lasting, healthy difference. It is not an easy road but it is worth it to avoid the pain and deformity this terrible disease can cause. Wishing you all the success.
