Topical BioMedics Announces “Soothe the Skin They’re in,” a New Program for Children Who Suffer with Eczema

Sadly, eczema is the most common skin problem treated by pediatric dermatologists

Rhinebeck, NY (PRWEB) October 20, 2014

Topical BioMedics, Inc., announces its new program to help relieve the discomfort and pain of children who suffer with eczema by sending their parents a free tube of their proprietary topical product, Topricin Junior for Children. Formulated especially for a child’s sensitive kin, Topricin Junior is a natural way to help the body heal the skin as it helps relieve itching, redness, pain, and discomfort.

The statistics are staggering. According to the National Eczema Association, there are 31.6 million people in the United States who suffer with eczema—and many of them are children.

Eczema is the most common skin problem treated by pediatric dermatologists. About 65% of their young patients develop symptoms before age one, and about 90% of them before age five. Adolescents and adults can also develop this condition, and individuals who had eczema as a child may experience reoccurrences later in life.    

A non-contagious inflammatory skin condition, the term eczema is derived from Greek, meaning “to boil out.” The name is appropriate since to ancient medical practitioners the skin may have appeared to be “boiling.”

Eczema can appear anywhere on the body or in just a few areas. Common symptoms include dry, red, itchy skin, bumps, and rashes, which can be oozing or very dry. In babies, a rash often appears on the face and scalp, but the symptoms of eczema vary from child to child, and rashes can be found on the back of the knees, bend in the elbows, trunk, wrists, hands, feet, and other parts of the body.

No matter which part of the skin is affected, eczema is usually itchy. But scratching can make the rash worse, and may eventually lead to thickened, brownish areas on the skin and/or cause an infection.

The National Eczema Association has given voice to the children who are afflicted with eczema, and the things they say can break your heart. Things like: “I feel uncomfortable in the skin I’m in.” “Eczema makes me feel left out and sad.” “Eczema is hard to live with.” “It hurts when people stare.” And, the simple, poignant statement “I feel bad.”

Unfortunately, the primary reason that most people remain suffering with eczema is because there is an incomplete understanding of the disease and what causes it. In addition, many of the Rx medicines for eczema and other skin issues have side effects, some of which are severe.

A child’s skin is more sensitive to pain than an adult’s skin, and they feel pain more intensely,” says Lou Paradise, president and chief of research, Topical BioMedics. “They are little people—not little adults—and adult medications may not be appropriate for them. Children need gentler, safer, effective treatments. Understanding and treating the cause of eczema, not just symptoms, is key.”

Topricin Junior for Children is made especially for children’s delicate skin, and is free of parabens, petroleum, and other harsh chemicals. Formulated with a combination of gentle yet effective natural biomedicines, it is historically ideal in treating pain and skin issues. Topricin Junior offers a safe, natural way to help the body heal the skin as it relieves itching, redness, pain, and discomfort.

A winner of the Parent Tested/Parent Approved Seal of Approval, Topricin Junior brings soothing relief and provides rapid healing for the pain and discomfort of symptoms associated with eczema ; rosacea; dry, cracked skin; sun and wind burn; bug bites; and minor burns.

“As a parent and grandparent, I know there is nothing worse than seeing your little one suffering in pain and discomfort,” says Paradise. “That’s why I am honored to offer a free tube of Topricin Junior to parents whose children are afflicted with eczema.”

Parents can receive Topricin Junior at no charge (just .00 for shipping and handling) by calling 800-959-1007 or visiting http://www.topricin.com. Offer good while supplies last.

Surfers Healing Surf Camp for Autism a Success – Natural Therapies Benefit Autistic Children

Woonsocket, RI (PRWEB) September 27, 2013

Autism is currently the fastest growing developmental disability, with a growth rate of 1,148 percent, according to the Autism Society.

It is a complex condition for which there is known cause or cure. “The demands of living with a person with autism are great, and families frequently experience high levels of stress,” the organization shares.

But for 180 autistic children and their families, the Surfers Healing RI surf camp on September 14 was a day to escape their daily struggles and join together as a community. Participants were paired with professional surfers from across the country as they took to the waters of Narragansett Beach and learned to surf.

Surfing has been a deeply therapeutic and liberating activity for Surfers Healing Founders Izzy and Danielle Paskowitz’s autistic son, Isaiah. In 2000, they began hosting day camps across the country in the hopes that other autistic children would benefit from the activity. Today, as Yahoo News reports, “Surfers Healing gives 3,000 kids a year in 22 camps across the country the opportunity to feel the same calm and joy Isaiah felt.”

Allison Smith’s twin boys Brennan and Brody felt just that at the RI camp. She shares, “As a parent of first-time surfers, I completely underestimated what this day would mean to our family. Watching my sweet little boys who struggle every single day SURF was the most powerful thing that I have ever experienced as their mom. The moment I handed Brennan and Brody over to the volunteers, their faces lit up with joy. When they hit the water with their new surfer friends, their happiness radiated.”

First-time participant Quin Abramek also enjoyed the surf camp experience. He kept saying he wanted a “big wave,” his mother, Mary-Ellen shares. “There were no judgements, it was all incredibly heartwarming. Quin had an amazing ride and we had an amazing day as a family! We can’t wait for next year!”

And the future looks bright for the RI camp, which began with 60 autistic children in 2009. It has since tripled in size, with a growing waiting list. All surf camp expenses are fully covered by volunteer fundraising efforts. This makes the experience possible for many families.

This year, Aidance Skincare was proud to sponsor the Surfers Healing day camp and introduce local autistic children to the natural therapy of surfing. Aidance believes strongly in the healing power of nature. The company’s unique topical remedies blend natural and organic ingredients to treat a range of skin conditions.

Local families are already looking forward to next year’s event, where they can count on encouragement, adventure and lasting memories.

“We had an amazing day in the most typical sense: fun without stress or drama – just plain laughing, running, getting covered in sand and salt water, which is what makes it even more wonderful,” said Sharon Schubert. Her 15-year-old autistic son, Joey participated for a fifth year.

Aidance Skincare is a Woonsocket, RI based company that provides all-natural therapeutic skincare remedies to customers and physicians in more than 150 countries.

LuckyVitamin.com and Vitamin Angels Partner to Raise Awareness and Provide Nutritional Support for Undernourished Children Amongst Health Conscious Consumers Worldwide

One in three children worldwide is undernourished. Supporting Vitamin Angels reduces child mortality by connecting infants and children under five with vital nutrients.

Norristown, PA (PRWEB) August 19, 2009

Every year, one third of maternal and child deaths are caused by the lack of essential nutrients. This year, in a partnership with Vitamin Angels, LuckyVitamin.com hopes to help change that.

LuckyVitamin.com (Norristown, PA) has joined forces with Vitamin Angels (Santa Barbara, CA) in a collaborative partnership to support Vitamin Angels in raising awareness and funding for their quest to reduce child mortality worldwide by advancing the availability, access and use of essential nutrients to newborns, infants and children under five. Last week LuckyVitamin.com, a direct to consumer e-commerce health and wellness website, launched an innovative new program that enables their health conscious consumers to directly support Vitamin Angels with a new at-checkout-donation module that allows customers making purchases to add a charitable contribution to their purchase.

“To be able to raise awareness amongst our large network of health conscious consumers to such a wonderful organization as Vitamin Angles brings us great satisfaction. Vitamin Angels supports a remarkable cause with an extraordinary mission that we should all recognize. We are proud to lend our support and look forward to working with them to raise awareness and funding for a long time to come,” said Samuel Wolf, President & Founder of LuckyVitamin.com.

Shoppers will now have the ability when completing their order to add a monetary donation directly to their purchase. In the first week since its launch Lucky Vitamin has received hundreds of donations representing thousands of dollars in support for Vitamin Angels. Each donation will be processed by Lucky Vitamin on behalf of each contributing customer and forwarded directly to Vitamin Angels to help improve the health and wellbeing of children worldwide.

“Today for most of the children Vitamin Angels works with, basic nutrition is a privilege that is largely beyond their reach. We feel ‘lucky’ to be working with an organization truly committed to global health!” said Howard Schiffer, President and Founder of Vitamin Angels
