More than skin deep -
the Homeopathic Management of Diseases of the Skin

Overview

The skin is the body's largest organ; an average person's skin weighs 9 pounds and covers an area of 22 square feet. Today, skin diseases are rampant and victimize almost every person at some point during his or her lifetime. Surveys suggest that 20 - 30 % of the world population has a skin problem which deserves some form of medical attention. Unfortunately most people prefer to treat skin diseases with topical applications, which are useless or worse. When practiced correctly, homeopathic medicine offers significant help with skin diseases by addressing the underlying root cause of the condition. However, a high rate of success treating dermatological diseases with homeopathy will depend on the skill and training of the prescriber. In this this seven week course, Dr. Will Taylor will address the homeopathic management of disease which manifests primarily in expressions of the skin - both in the acute and chronic setting – thereby providing the needed tools to effectively treat a myriad of common skin conditions.

Among the topics we will address are:

• the taxonomies and formal nomenclatures of skin disease
• common expressions versus characterizing/differentiating features of skin pathology
• skin disease as a concomitant to, or in alternation with, internal expressions of disease

Specific conditions discussed will be selected from:

• atopic eczemas
• contact dermatitis
• seborrheic dermatitis and cradle cap of infants
• acne
• urticaria (hives) & angioedema

• lichenoid eruptions - lichen planus &c.
• acute skin infection - impetigo, cellulitis, erysipelas
• necrotizing skin lesions - spider bites, necrotizing streptococcal and staphylococcal infection, gangrene

We'll also consider the common homeopathic directive to avoid the “suppression” of symptoms of the skin, along the “law of cure” suggesting the evolution of disease from external to internal and the corresponding direction of cure in the opposing direction; and attempt to come to a more sophisticated understanding of when & when not to target expressions of the skin in our homeopathic work with patients in both the acute and chronic setting.

All topics will be discussed within the context of specific cases posted for review prior to each session.

Praise for Dr. Taylor

I just wanted to thank you for your wonderfully enlightening and stimulating course on Rheumatic Diseases. I learned so much from the enormous detail you managed to cover each week. I'm sure it takes a tremendous amount of time and energy to research and compile each lecture - but nothing goes unnoticed Will, I'm sure everyone is most grateful to you.

I know I've said this to you before, but I'd really like to tell you again - you are an extremely inspiring educator with a depth of knowledge in so many areas, it's always such a treat to spend whatever time I get to share your insight. And all this with a wonderful sense of humour.

Melissa is such a delightful co-ordinator - don't know how she manages to listen and take notes while at the same time attending to everyone's questions and statements. You guys make such a great team and I always come away from each webinar with the feeling that I've just had 2 hours of fun!

I'm so looking forward to the Cardiovascular Course you will be doing with Farokh.
— Joanne Lipinski

Thank you for this. I enjoyed and benefited from the terrific Rheumatology Course, the philosophy, anatomy, and good wit. It was excellent!! I wish I could have attended the live webinars, but the time didn't work out so well for me on the East Coast.
— Connie Wilson

I love, love, love the Rheumatic Diseases course as well. (Want more of that.) -- Also looking forward to the Cardiovascular Course.
— Sarah Daniel

I would like very much to thank you for the wonderful course that you offered us on Rheumatic Diseases. It was extremely interesting and I enjoyed every minute of it. At the same time I benefited a lot from the knowledge that you shared with us.
I hope to see you one day in Romania...
— Dr. Ileana Rîndaşu, Secretar general, Societatea Română de Homeopatie

Thank you for a wonderful Webinar. This was my first webinar with you, and I really enjoyed it. This has opened up a whole new universe for me to learn homeopathy. Up until now I always avoided webinars. But yours was as good as a live seminar. I am so glad I signed up for it.
I look forward to attending more of your webinars in future.
