What is psoriasis?

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease that is usually accompanied by scaling, redness, itching, and skin discomfort. The disease has a fluctuating course, during which symptoms may intensify or decrease at different periods.

Psoriasis treatment with Naftalan oil

Naftalan oil is a natural therapeutic substance that has been used for many years as part of comprehensive dermatological treatment. In psoriasis, Naftalan oil helps improve the condition of the skin, reduce inflammatory processes, and support skin regeneration.

At Nafta Sanatorium, Naftalan therapy is provided in combination with modern medical approaches and under medical supervision.
