Gentle, holistic support with Psoriasis Chinese Medicine Sydney

If you’ve been living with dry, red, scaly patches on your skin—and wondering if it might be psoriasis—you’re not alone.

Many people go months, even years, without a clear diagnosis. And often, the more steroid creams they try, the more frustrated they feel. That’s because psoriasis isn’t just a skin problem. It’s a sign that your body—especially your immune and detox systems—may be out of balance.

At our Psoriasis Chinese Medicine clinic in Sydney, we see many patients who feel stuck, discouraged, and unsure where to turn. They’ve tried everything… and still, their skin flares up without warning.

Let’s take a closer look at what psoriasis really looks like—and how Chinese Medicine offers a more holistic approach to healing.

Common Symptoms of Psoriasis

Psoriasis can appear differently in each person, but here are some common signs:

  • Raised, red patches of skin covered with thick, silvery-white scales
  • Itching, burning, or soreness in affected areas
  • Dry, cracked skin that may bleed
  • Thickened, pitted, or ridged nails
  • Patches often appear on elbows, knees, scalp, and lower back—but can show up anywhere
  • Flares that come and go, often triggered by stress, weather, or illness

If any of these feel familiar, you may be dealing with psoriasis—even if it hasn’t yet been formally diagnosed.

The Chinese Medicine View of Psoriasis

In Chinese Medicine, psoriasis is often the body’s way of showing that something deeper is out of balance—whether it’s stress, poor digestion, inflammation, or a build-up of toxins. When the body can’t eliminate waste properly through its usual channels, it can push it out through the skin, leading to flare-ups and discomfort.

That’s why applying creams might bring temporary relief, but it doesn’t address the real cause.

At our clinic in Sydney, we take a whole-body approach. We look beyond just the skin to understand what’s happening inside—so we can help you feel better from the inside out.

How We Manage Psoriasis Holistically

Our approach is gentle, personalised, and rooted in experience. We may use:

  • Acupuncture to reduce inflammation and regulate the immune system
  • Herbal medicine to support detoxification and soothe inflammation
  • Gut and liver-focused diet guidance
  • Emotional support—because stress is a major flare trigger
  • Natural skincare to protect the skin barrier without harsh chemicals
