Psoriasis Treatments in Philadelphia
Meeting Point Health offers a range of holistic, integrative psoriasis treatments for Philadelphia area residents. Psoriasis is an autoimmune disorder characterized by a build-up of thick, itchy, red plaques on the arms, legs, scalp, and other areas of the body. This happens because a person’s overactive immune system accelerates skin cell growth. Instead of shedding skin cells at a normal pace, they begin piling up on each other, resulting in troublesome and uncomfortable plaques.
We aim to find and address the root cause of your condition to help you achieve optimum health. From light therapy to ozonated water treatments, we can help heal your skin and provide relief from your symptoms.

Psoriasis vs. Eczema
Eczema and psoriasis can cause red, flaking, itchy patches of raised skin on the arms, legs, scalp, and face. Both conditions may be related to genetics and environment, and there’s no permanent cure for either one. You can even treat them with some of the same topical therapies.
However, eczema is caused by genetics and environment, while psoriasis is an autoimmune disease. Eczema can occur in adults but most often affects children. Psoriasis almost exclusively affects adults and can lead to other inflammation-related disorders, like arthritis.
There are also slight differences in how they look. Eczema usually appears as small, flaky, red patches flush with the rest of your skin. Psoriasis plaques are typically raised, can be pinkish-red to red in color, and can cover large areas of skin.
Treatments in Philadelphia
Meeting Point Health offers various psoriasis treatments administered by experienced and certified medical professionals in our comfortable medical suite.
Our holistic treatment options include:
The Aerolase Neo is a medical laser that passes through the skin to suppress inflammation and reduce the excess number of blood vessels that create psoriasis plaques. This treatment is safe for patients of all ages and skin types.
Our saunas raise your core temperature without overheating the air around you using infrared light. This light penetrates one-third of an inch into the skin to improve circulation, flush toxins, and reduce inflammation, which is beneficial in treating psoriasis.
Ozone therapy refers to various oxygen-rich treatments proven to improve your immune system, destroy pathogens, and treat autoimmune conditions. The ozone helps kill off inflammation-causing bacteria to soften, soothe, and rejuvenate your skin. For psoriasis, we recommend our ozonated water or oil therapy. We infuse water or olive oil with ozone and then apply it to the affected area.
