Aalgo Psoriasis Treatment

Psoriasis is the overgrowing of ones skin, which most commonly appears as swollen inflamed skin lesions covered with white scaling. There are many different types of Psoriasis the most common of which are Plaque Psoriasis which appears as raised, inflamed lesions covered with white scale - this build up is actually a build up of dead skin cells. Also Guttate Psoriasis known by its small red dots, with some scale.

This build up happens because the skin is growing faster than it can normally exfoliate, and it is because of Aalgo's amazing exfoliating properties that it is so successful in the treatment of this difficult skin condition.

It is also a fact that when people with Psoriasis go and swim in the sea every day for about 5/6 weeks there Psoriasis in 99% of cases is gone - back home 2 weeks and it starts to return with a vengeance. Aalgo's amazing mix of four particular species of organic seaweeds turns your bath water into the same constituents as seawater without the drying effect of the salt - we at Aalgo wash as much of the salt off the plants before they are dried because firstly salt stings any open wounds and secondly it is very drying.

Instructions for Psoriasis:

For the white dry scaling parts on the arms and legs

(YOU DO THIS ONCE ONLY).

  • Mix Aalgo powder with hot water to a paste and allow cool to blood temperature.
  • Cover the affected areas with the paste and wrap in transparent film (cling film).
  • Leave on for 45minites to an hour.
  • Run a LUKE WARM bath and sieve 2 tablespoons of Aalgo in the water.
  • Remove cling film.
  • Get into the bath and remove the paste gently with a sponge, this also removes all the dead and dry skin leaving bright red or purple blotches.
  • Lie back in the bath with the muscles at the back of the neck in the water so that you fully relax.
  • Have a LUKE WARM Aalgo bath daily until totally clear. The length of time this will take varies from person to person, at least four weeks.

NB: NO SHOWERS - until Psoriasis is clear. To wash your hair have a shower first then your Aalgo bath.

  • If you do sport and have to shower.
  • When you come home have a quick Aalgo bath.

The reason you don't shower is that we are trying to keep an invisible residue of the Aalgo on your skin, as you will continue to absorb it through your pores and then it works from the inside out to re-hydrate the skin - you only stop showering until the psoriasis is clear.

  • The blotches will gradually decrease in size and finally disappear.
  • When the skin is totally clear reduce the baths to one every other day for a week.
  • Then twice a week for a couple of weeks and then try to go to 3 baths a fortnight.

(Psoriasis cannot be cured, but by following our maintenance programme you can keep the visible signs totally at bay. We have people on our maintenance for over 12 years with no re-occurrence.)

Maintenance:

  • Have an Aalgo bath every 5th day.
  • Anytime you have a really stressful day have an Aalgo bath that night, lie back in the bath with the muscles at the back of the neck in the water so that you fully relax.
  • If you feel the slightest dry skin, have an Aalgo bath that night do not wait until tomorrow !!
  • If you swim in an indoor pool always have an Aalgo bath when you come home to counteract the extremely drying effect of chlorine.
  • Never use very hot water in either a shower or bath.

Scalp Psoriasis

ADULTS ONLY: Please note with tinted hair, always do a strand test behind the ear.

  • Mix Aalgo powder to a thick paste with hot water then mix the paste 50/50 with natural yogurt (there is something between the yogurt and seaweed that only works on the scalp).
  • Mix the two thoroughly and cool to blood temperature.
  • Cover the hair and scalp with the mixture.
  • Cover the hair with kitchen transparent film (cling film), keeping behind the ears and above the forehead.
  • Leave on for one hour and then wash out (In extreme cases overnight).
  • Repeat every second day leaving on for 10/20 minutes until totally clear.
  • This exfoliates away all the dead and dry skin, and also stops the itch and flaking scalp.

Maintenance:

  • Any time you feel the slightest dry scalp do the above for 20 minutes every second day until totally clear.
  • The first time you treat your scalp the psoriasis will usually stay away for up to 5 weeks. Then each time after that it will stay away longer, and longer.
  • If your scalp psoriasis is stress related have an Aalgo bath any time you are stressed.
  • Any time you feel the slightest bit of dry scalp put on mixture for 10/20 minutes every second day until clear again.
  • It will usually stay away for about six to eight weeks.

Instructions for Pustular Psoriasis:

  • Mix Aalgo into a paste with warm water.
  • Apply to the feet and heels.
  • Cover area with transparent film (cling film) and replace socks.
  • Leave it on for several hours or overnight in extreme cases.
  • Remove in a basin of warm water rubbing the area with your hand.
  • Pat Dry.
  • If you do this overnight the hard skin should be gone in about 3-4 nights.
  • Then have a foot spa daily until the psoriasis is totally gone.

After your foot spa pat your feet dry with a towel and do not put them in shoes or socks until the next day as this will allow the air at your feet and give the seaweed a chance to be absorbed through the pores and re-hydrate the skin from the inside out. In order to maintain soft, moisturised skin have an Aalgo foot spa twice a week.
