Lichens Sclerosis is a chronic inflammatory condition affecting the vulval & anal areas.

While the exact cause remains unknown it is believed to involve factors such as autoimmune dysfunction, hormonal imbalances & microbe/fungal overgrowths.

Symptoms include itching, pain, discomfort, and tissue damage leading to significant distress and impacts on daily life.

Traditional medical treatment focuses on managing inflammation with steroids.

For some individuals, steroid treatments may not fully control symptoms. This is where the addition of natural alternatives and complimentary therapies are particularly valuable.

Naturopathy provides a unique approach to healing your Lichens sclerosis by addressing the underlying causes and imbalances. For example hormonal issues, digestive problems, high stress lifestyles, trouble sleeping and joint inflammation.

Our experienced naturopath, Araleena Isse, has been working with LS patients for 20 years, offering simple, effective treatments such as herbal medicine and nutrients, as well as topical applications.

Struggling to get relief from your symptoms no matter what treatments you try?

You may have an imbalance in the bacteria of your vagina which is affecting your vulva or anus area.

Vaginal microbiome testing could be the missing piece of the puzzle.

Testing the vagina, as it shares the same microbiome as the vulva can unlock the answers to your ongoing pain, itching and discomfort.

Simple, organic products like the Perrin Naturals range offer effective solutions for reducing inflammation and scarring.

100% natural ingredients help to soothe irritation, alleviate discomfort and support healing of the affected tissues.

Our Perrin Naturals Lichens Sclerosis 3 Pack combines all the best creams (Creme Complete, Nutra, Perrins Blend) to treat the symptoms of LS.

Making dietary changes can significantly impact LS symptoms.

We recommend low-sugar, low-grain and low dairy if you react to it, to reduce inflammation and support gut health.

We have made weekly diet plans targeted to reduce inflammation in the body so that you don't have to think about what to eat.

Complex ecosystems of microbes reside in the female reproductive tract and disruptions in this ecosystem can aggravate LS.

A vaginal microbiome test can be completed in the comfort of your own home.

This test helps us assess the bacteria in your vagina and tailor treatments to you.

We work with you to identify your triggers, such as hormonal imbalances, mould exposure, perimenopause or bacterial/fungal problems in the vagina, to address the root causes of inflammation.  

Identifying your unique triggers and effectively treating them can be the turning point in your LS journey.
