Guest guest Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 Dear Ayurvedaonline: Hello, I am new to the group. I'm a Certified Ayurvedic Practitioner trained here in the US and am also training with Martha Oakes as a postpartum Ayurveda doula. I have questions about 2 clients: One has vata-type eczema on his forearms and upperarms. The patches are dry, colorless and do not itch much. I have learned that pitta is aggravated in all eczema disorders so have recommended a pitta-vata pacifying diet, diluted neem oil for skin and neem to be taken internally, and a wonderful eczema lotion made by my teacher Pratima Raichur. I also want to give him a gentle detox. Any recommendations for detox herbs for this cleanse? Anyone have info. about effective Western detox herbs? I am also interested to hear other treatments for eczema - all advice is welcome. Another client is a new mother and both her and baby have had thrush (yeast) recur 3 times in the first 10 weeks. Both have received 3 rounds of antibiotics - very worrisome. What are your recommendations for treating the thrush as well as for rebuilding baby's intestinal flora? Thanks much for any advice you might have, Cora Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
