Atopic eczema, also known as atopic dermatitis, is an enormous challenge - not only for self-confidence, but also for physical, mental and emotional strength and your own zest for life. After more than 45 years of suffering from this agonizing skin disease, Iris Seidenstricker has found an amazingly simple way to healthy skin. With courage and determination, with sometimes very little hope but with untiring patience and confidence in the healing powers of her own body, she went this new way despite many setbacks. In the end she was rewarded with healthy skin and a never before experienced quality of life. This frank, sensible and touching book is not a self-help guide - it is a personal report which tells of an impressive recovery and provides deep insights into daily life with atopic eczema. The book gives hope and offers inspiring impulses to build and strengthen self-confidence.
