While there may not be a cure for eczema, there are plenty of ways to relieve symptoms. A bath ranks near the top of the list, especially for infants and young children. Regular bathing is so important for your child because it treats your child’s dry skin and alleviates those uncomfortable eczema symptoms. That said, the wrong bath can only worsen the condition. Keep reading for our seven guidelines to properly bathe your child.
At Soothems, we understand the challenges that come with eczema symptoms. We’re thrilled to say that we’ve developed Soothems as a therapeutic treatment to help those with particularly sensitive skin. A natural treatment for eczema, these garments are made from a proprietary smart fabric called TEWLTect. The curative properties of TEWLTect provide a positive, soothing effect. This smart fabric can be used as an occlusive barrier wet or dry and with or without certain emollients/topical steroids.
Whether it’s infant eczema or eczema in older children, the condition can become itchy in a hurry. There are some cases where a child scratches so much to the point where they bleed. This is what’s known as the “itch-scratch” cycle. Eczema is also known to distract children and their parents from performing daily activities. When it’s time for bed, the itching symptoms become so bad that a child can’t sleep. In a domino effect, that sleep pattern disruption causes flare-ups and worsening of symptoms.
Maybe you’re nodding your head ‘yes’ as you think of the challenges caused by eczema in your own home. You’ve tried just about everything you can think of only to find no relief for your child. Soothems is changing things in a major way. In addition to our eczema therapy garments, we believe in the therapeutic power of an imaginative story that entertains, empathizes, and normalizes life with these skin conditions. Our solution to eczema is to have your child put on their Soothems garment and then read them one of our special bedtime story books. They will absolutely love the combination of the magic disappearing print of the garment along with the story book. The goal of Soothems is to delight and comfort your child to a more restful night’s sleep.
There isn’t a better way to make your child more comfortable and relaxed than with Soothems garments. For eczema therapy tips and more, turn to the experts at Soothems.
