Infopathy Team It's not a normal histamine type allergy response, so I figured that one would not help.
It's more like a reaction to a toxin, the urushiol, which penetrates the skin. I think it ultimately IS an allergy response since about 15% of the population does not react. Just not via the histamine channels. Which is why it's such a problem, as antihistamines are completely ineffectual for the severe and long lasting itching rash.

I'm sure folks would very much love to have specific help for poison oak and poison ivy - I know I would!
Danny Duncan you're right, the reaction to poison ivy and poison oak is primarily caused by the immune system's response to urushiol, a toxin that penetrates the skin. Nevertheless, even though it is not the main factor, histamine is still involved in the itching and swelling.
Currently, we don't have anything specifically for poison ivy and poison oak, but the Allergy PEMF may help lower histamine levels and harmonize immune function. To request... See more

Infopathy Team It would seem like histamine would have to be involved, and perhaps it is at some level, but studies show no increase of histamine in the areas of contact dermatitis rash, and no improvement for patients symptoms of taking antihistamines - unfortunately!
If antihistamines could improve the itching, it would be a MUCH better situation to navigate. Poison oak is a big problem in my region, people are hospitalized for it... See more

Thank you for the suggestion, I will add my first request to the wish list.
Danny Duncan Also, use baking soda 3:1 ratio with water. Put paste on rash with gloves on and also make gauze pads to adhere. Apple cider vinegar can help relieve the itch topically. Wipe everything off you touch with clorox wipes,doorknobs etc.. avoid sugar. Sugar inflames the body and causes dis-ease ITIS in the body. Find the infopathy ICs as well.

Danny Duncan I do not know if infopathy has a IC for this. I sent this information as soaking in this kind of soak opens up pores and helps release energy,even emotional. Infopathy can do a vast amount of things. To me, I enjoy a good detox soak as often as I can. I use to do soaks every night. I sleep great when I do it. I also feel infopathy is a good way to do lots. Yet, I got to wash my body and infopathy IC probably does not do... See more

Lisa van Koetsveld, the recommended duration for using the Detox Heavy Metals 3.0 imprint can vary based on individual needs and responses to the treatment. However, a common approach for detoxification imprints is to use them for a period of 30 days. Here's a suggested protocol:
Initial Phase: use the imprint once daily for the first week to allow your body to adjust to the detoxification process.

Initial Phase: use the imprint once daily for the first week to allow your body to adjust to the detoxification process.
Main Detox Phase: After the initial week, use imprint 3 times a day for the next three weeks.
Evaluation Phase: After completing the 30-day period, take a break for a week and evaluate how you feel.
Repeat or Maintenance: If needed, you can repeat the 30-day cycle or switch to a maintenance phase where you use the imprint a few times a week.
