Abstract

Acne vulgaris, a prevalent chronic inflammatory disorder of the pilosebaceous unit, often poses challenges in its management.This single case study aimed to alleviate the severity of the condition and address associated stress through an integrative Yoga and Naturopathy approach.Over a 10-day period, the patient underwent a tailored regimen encompassing yogasanas, breathing exercises, relaxation techniques, heliotherapy, mud therapy, massage therapy, herbal therapy, hydrotherapy, a naturopathy diet, and acupuncture.Diagnostic assessments included the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) and DASS-21 scores, reflecting the extent and severity of acne vulgaris.Laboratory investigations revealed favorable improvements in hemoglobin and urea protein levels.The overarching objective of the treatment was to empower the patient to lead a socially unimpeded life, manage cutaneous symptoms effectively, and mitigate stress levels, ultimately enhancing the Quality of Life (QOL).This case report underscores the potential benefits of a holistic and individualized Yoga and Naturopathy approach in the comprehensive management of acne vulgaris.
