Psoriasis treatment with fir preparations

Medical scientists have found that psoriasis has a non-infectious nature. Today, the overwhelming majority of doctors assume the autoimmune nature of this pathology. But most importantly, scientists have found that psoriasis is not genetically transmitted. Only a predisposition to this disease can be inherited. The main cause of psoriasis is a weakening and, as a result, imbalance and malfunctioning of the immune system.

Each individual patient has his own pathogenesis of psoriasis. Therefore, the methods of treatment for each person must be selected individually.

If psoriasis is relatively easy, psoriatic plaques appear as small foci, then you can completely do without pharmacological preparations, and use fir water. Fir water should be drunk 3 times a day, 70-100 g, for one and a half months. As practice shows, the intake of fir water (or fir oil) is very effective, in most patients the plaques disappear. If the plaques do not disappear, then after a two-week break, the course should be repeated. If we are talking only about the prevention of exacerbation of the disease, then the course of taking fir water can be reduced to 4-5 weeks.

With more severe course psoriasis, when plaques are observed all over the body, in addition to taking fir water, it is recommended to take fir baths. To do this, it is necessary to prepare an emulsion of essential oil of fir and soap, and pour it into the bath, stirring, so that it dissolves evenly in water. The emulsion is prepared according to the method presented in the book by V.T. Olifirenko "Water heat treatment".

The essence of the method is as follows: 550 g of drinking water is poured into an enamel vessel, while there should be no damage to the enamel. Dissolve 750 mg of salicylic acid in water. When the water comes to a boil, add 30-50 g of chopped baby soap, and boil over low heat until it is completely dissolved. Next, the dishes are removed, placed at a safe distance from the fire ( essential oil quickly ignites). While stirring the contents of the dish, add 500 ml of fir oil. After stirring well to a homogeneous composition, the mixture is poured into glass bottles and hermetically closed, for example, with a nylon cap. Store such an emulsion in a dark place.

170-200 liters of water are poured into the bath. Its temperature should not be lower than 39 o C, but also not higher than 43 o C. To prepare the first bath, the contents of the bottle are shaken well, and then 15 g is poured into a measuring cup, and from it the emulsion is poured into the bath, and stirred well in water until complete dissolution. Now you can dive into the bath.

For the second bath, dissolve 20 g of the emulsion in water. And then for each subsequent bath, increase the dose of the emulsion by 5 g until you reach 85 g. The prepared composition is enough for 20 baths.

The course can be alternated with taking turpentine baths. When preparing the same turpentine baths, before immersion in water from the 3rd or 4th bath on the armpits, groin area, perineum, scrotum, outer labia should be applied with petroleum jelly, otherwise a burning sensation may appear. If you experience a burning sensation on your calves as the dose increases, apply petroleum jelly to them. And if a burning sensation is felt on the abdomen and back, and taking a bath can bring discomfort - lower the dosage and use the dosage that suits you best for subsequent baths.

While taking a bath, the breast should not be immersed in water. This is necessary to facilitate the work of the heart. Check the duration of therapy by the hour. The bath should be taken within 15-20 minutes, depending on how you feel. In the bath, you should lie quietly, and evenly warm all parts of the body.

After taking a bath, shake off the water, blot a little with a towel and go to bed for half an hour until the tingling sensation subsides. If the psoriatic plaques have not disappeared, you should use a laser device that increases the biological activity of fir oil.

Baths are recommended to be combined with the use of fir water and fir oil inside, no more than two doses per day. Between taking oil and taking a bath should pass at least 5-6 hours. The bath should be taken either before 12 or after 18 hours.

A positive result is recorded in 65-70% of cases. The disease can recur after 2-3 years. In this case, the course should be repeated. Convergence of psoriatic plaques with a repeated course is observed after 12-18 baths.

The break between courses should be at least 7-8 months.

The effectiveness of fir oil in the treatment of psoriasis has been proven experimentally. In tech. For 3 days, fir oil was applied to the scalp. The scales lagged behind, leaving a smooth, light red skin. Then, for 5 days, the papules located in the frontal part were irradiated with a laser unit. The LG-78-1 unit was chosen. The laser treatment was carried out for 5 minutes, then each subsequent procedure was increased by 3 minutes, up to a procedure lasting 25 minutes. Further in tech. For 3 days, the head was exposed to fir oil at night, then laser treatment, but with a decrease in the duration of treatment from 25 minutes to 5, reducing the procedure by five minutes each time.

This method allowed to avoid exacerbations within 1.5 years. Then, 5 procedures were passed in combination with rubbing in and exposure of fir oil, and laser irradiation in flow. 15 minutes.

Diathesis in a child

Another recipe is also popular: mix 3 parts of fir essential oil, 3 parts of sulfuric ointment and 4 parts of baby cream.

Lichen

Mix in equal proportions fir oil and forty-degree vodka, shake the container thoroughly. Blot a cotton swab or a piece of bandage in the composition and apply 15-20 mm to the lichen and the skin around it. Continue the application for 3-4 minutes, firmly pressing the tampon to the skin. Then discard the tampon, and treat the affected area with petroleum jelly or olive oil. The procedure is repeated 4-5 times a day. After 2-3 days, even the most neglected lichen completely disappears.

Shake the syringe thoroughly, and then, lying on the left god, inject the liquid into the rectum. If the burning sensation does not appear, or does not bring any discomfort, then, starting from the third day of treatment, you can drip 10-15 drops of oil into fir water. This dosage takes into account the fact that a certain amount of oil will remain on inner surface syringes, so you should not be afraid of an internal burn. After the introduction of the composition, rinse the syringe with warm water to wash out the fir oil, because it reacts with rubber.

Joint arthrosis

Baths

Local fir baths are beneficial for the joints of the hands. Pour one and a half liters of fir water into a plastic bag (you can use fir concentrate diluted in water in a ratio of 1 to 5). Place the bag in a container of hot water. Heat the contents of the bag to 40 degrees, then place your hands in water. The duration of the procedure is 15 minutes.

Every day you need to walk 5-10 km with a sack. It is recommended to do gymnastics in the morning.

Sciatica and inflammatory muscle diseases

Places where the pain is most severe, rub with 1-3 drops of fir essential oil. The benefits of such rubbing will be greater if these places are warmed up before the procedure, for example, in a bath or by applying mustard plasters.

Wounds, cuts, scrapes

Cooking fir oil at home

The needles and thin small branches, which do not yet have shoots, are finely chopped and placed in a 2 liter glass jar, leaving an empty space on top (approximately 5 cm). To this level, the mixture is poured with sunflower oil.

Further procedure - evaporation of a mixture of needles and branches to extract oil from them. The jar is covered with a lid (not tightly closed, but only covered with it!) And placed in a saucepan with a napkin at the bottom. The pot is filled with water to the middle, covered with a lid and put on fire. After boiling, the fire is reduced and the liquid is evaporated for 4–5 hours, while controlling the presence of water in the pan - if it becomes less than the specified volume, add water as it evaporates.

After the specified time has elapsed, the pot can be removed from the heat. Oil from a jar with needles is poured into another jar. Needles should be squeezed into it, which can then be thrown away.

The first jar is again filled with chopped needles and twigs and poured with the oil obtained after the first evaporation.

The procedure is repeated - the jar is placed in a saucepan, half filled with water, and evaporated over low heat for 4–5 hours, not forgetting to add water in time. The oil obtained after the second stage of evaporation is the desired product, ready for use after cooling.
