Fungal Infection
Fungal Infection
A fungal infection is the invasion of a fungus itself or even a single-celled organism into your body, multiplying and resulting in some skin and organ problems. These infections can be superficial, involving the skin, nails or mucous membranes, or they can dive deeper into the skin and involve tissues, organs, even the blood. Some fungi (the better-known Candida fungus, for example) are benign, residing on the skin or in the environment and do not cause harm; some can be pathogenic in certain settings. Opportunistic fungi are primarily dangerous for individuals with weakened immune systems, like those with chronic diseases or those receiving immunosuppressive therapies, while pathogenic fungi can infect healthy individuals. Severity and location determine their types: fungal attacks can be mild and easily treatable or potentially life-threatening systemic diseases requiring medical attention. Key information on causes, risk factors and modes of transmission is important for prevention and treatment.

3. Acupuncture and Immune-Enhancer Activities:
The medical scientists at Valeda observed that most of the chronic/long lasting skin and hair problems originate because of altered natural immunity. Therefore, for your individual problem, the Valeda doctors use immunity-strengthening steps in which acupuncture plays a very important role. acupuncture has a reference in 5000 years old Indian Medical Literature of Ayurveda, the bethan kriya of ayurveda got later on developed as the Chinese Science of acupuncture. The team of Valeda doctors is trained by Dr. Seema Bali who excelled at this technique in the year 1985 at Sir Ganga Ram Hospital New Delhi. The technique involves stimulation of focal points on your body surface. Each focal point selected by the doctors at Valeda corresponds to a specific energy channel; correction of these energy flows helps improve your immunity and correction of the individual problem.
4. Modern Scientific Cosmetology and Ancient Principles:
With the advancements of modern sciences, man could fragment the traditional applications into molecules and could understand scientific principles behind interaction of these molecules with each other and with the traditional recepies. No doubt, we cannot and should not interfere with the very complex internal chemistry of traditional skin or hair care applications. And we should value the formulations, recepies, procedures, methods and the steps followed by human kind for over millions of years. Remember, you should not reject the traditional knowledge and expertise which has been instrumental in being providing skin and hair care for ages. This is exactly what the scientists, researchers and doctors have been following for 40 years, and the result is that at Valeda, you get the benefits of both traditional knowledge and modern sciences therefore, the results and affects in the treatment of skin and hair issues remains long lasting and without any major side effects.

Nutrition also forms an essential part of maintaining health and healing. Valeda offers constitutional diets that are tailored, scientifically devised nutrition programs based on physique and constitution as described in the ancient health systems such as Ayurveda. The preparation of diets is so focused towards balancing the internal working of the body, improving digestion, and generally enhancing vitality. In fact, proper diet and nutrition are very much needed to support healing and long-term health.
6. The Unique Valeda Experience:
Unique is the treatment experience that Valeda provides, as its core belief is on treating the whole person, not just the symptoms. Conventional medicine usually addresses the symptoms of an illness or sickness without necessarily facing the root cause. Unlike the holistic treatment model of Valeda, which works on mutual understanding of a patient's lifestyle, emotional health, and inner bodily systems, this makes the treatment not only effective in the short run but also supports long-term health and wellness.
7. Are there any side effects?
Holistic Dermatology is known to have its own benefits and values for ages. One of the major strengths of the holistic dermatology approach to Skin & Hair health is its minimal or no side effects. The holistic dermatology focuses on gently correcting the root causative factors, rather than a symptomatic relief. Minor and temporary erythema or the redness in few cases is a positive sign and is due to the local capillary congestion.
