PIONEER IN THE FIELD OF
PSORIASIS TREATMENT.
Irene Prantalos knows what it is like to overcome a debilitating illness, and turn her life around. She was diagnosed with psoriasis when she was just 11 years old and battled her way through adolescence and into early adulthood, suffering from the skin disease… until she found a way to live free from psoriasis with the help of her mother.
During her long journey of healing, Irene visited a slew of dermatologists and dabbled in many alternative therapies, some of which provided some relief yet neither approach ever resulted in permanent resolution.
In her own words: “In terms of psoriasis though, the years passed with little relief. I tried endlessly to find a cure, with a variety of treatments all claiming to heal my psoriasis. By now that simple rash had spread to cover my entire body. The worst of it came when I was in Year 11 and 12 with the pressures of VCE and the personal desire to do well. Whatever normal skin I had left now vanished. My body was really struggling; my legs had fluid retention and had swelled to the size of 2L coke bottles. I could barely walk, let alone move without pain. My beautiful mother sold her hairdressing salon and started caring for me 100% of the time. I later found out that all the money my mother received from the sale went on medical bills.”
At the age of 19, Irene turned to Chinese medicine for answers and was amazed by what ensued. Within just two months, her skin had cleared up – a pivotal moment marking the beginning of a lifelong passion for this ancient system of healing. “I was amazed, I felt normal. Normal! Who would have thought some stinky herbs would help me? I knew then this is what I had to do; I had to learn Chinese medicine to make sure I never got sick again. I asked the Chinese medicine practitioner: ‘Where can I learn this?’ She told me of a new course starting at RMIT University.”
The following seven years saw Irene studying Human Biology and Chinese Medicine, eventually going on to launch her own private practice, Salubre Health Solutions, dedicated to treating the condition she once suffered from so badly.
