Love your guts.

At The Clinic Skin Health we love a good event. For us it’s an opportunity to share knowledge about a particular topic, in this case it was gut-health, with people who are interested and engaged. We wholeheartedly believe in holistic health and the way to increase awareness is through sharing knowledge.

It’s through knowledge that we gain a better understanding of the inner workings of our body’s and how an imbalance of homeostasis can cause a cascade of health problems. While we are a skin clinic, we recognise that the skin is a mirror to internal disturbances. Therefore, the skin does not act in isolation it interacts with many of our body’s systems namely, the endocrine, respiratory, circulatory, digestive and lymphatic systems. While our gut-health event didn’t specifically speak to the gut-skin axis, this was deliberate, in that I wanted people to walk away with ‘gold nuggets’ that were not specifically related to their skin yet would put them on a path to better health. The positive feedback we have received so far, I think we have achieved our mission.

The evening began with savoury and sweet morsels, Veurve Clicquot and skin health loving rose water from Madame Dry. Regul8 formulator and Gut-Health expert Debbie Dickson shared her knowledge of how our gut-health influences our mental health, immunity, hormones and much more. Looking around the room I could see the changes in facial expressions as the information was delivered and it resonated with each individuals own personal experiences. After a solid two hours, there were questions galore which was very encouraging to see, and offered a sense of achievement that we had created a safe environment for people to share there own health issues.

We all have gut’s, they are the CEO of our body’s so treat them with respect and know how to work the system to get to the top of living a healthier life. If you would like to know more about gut-health and its effects on skin please book a consultation.
