Skin Issues

Dr Waters treats a wide variety of skin conditions.  A naturopathic rule for treating skin infections is to treat from the inside out.  If a person treats a skin infection with only topicals, and doesn't treat the underlying cause, the pathology will likely settle deeper in the body.  One example is a woman who soaked in the Dead Sea for 7 or 8 hours to get rid of psoriasis (she states that she was warned not to stay in longer than an hour or so).  Her psoriasis resolved but a couple of months later, she was diagnosed with Hashimoto's thyroiditis.  For this reason, Dr Waters always does a stool test and looks for other infections and toxicity before having the patient apply topicals.
