In addition, hypnotherapy has been used to suggest improvement on dermatological symptoms, such as chronic psoriasis, eczema, ichtyosis, warts and alopecia areata.
Many people with eczema have antibodies in their blood to allergens in the environment such as house dust mite; they are then classified as being atopic.
A few of the closely related mites also infest humans, causing intense itching, and others cause allergic diseases, including hay fever, asthma and eczema.
