Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin pattern marked by facial redness, flushing, sensitivity, and reactivity that often appears or worsens in midlife. This in-depth course explores rosacea through a holistic lens, examining why it behaves differently from acne and other skin conditions and why surface treatments alone rarely lead to lasting improvement.
You’ll explore the roles of inflammation, vascular reactivity, digestive function, diet, and constitutional tendencies in shaping rosacea patterns. The course also introduces supportive dietary principles, internal strategies, and topical approaches traditionally discussed for calming chronic facial inflammation over time. This class is well suited for individuals seeking a deeper understanding of rosacea as well as students and practitioners interested in integrative approaches to inflammatory skin patterns.

Rosacea is not a single, uniform condition but a complex inflammatory response influenced by metabolism, digestion, vascular sensitivity, and long-term lifestyle patterns. This comprehensive course reframes rosacea as a systemic pattern rather than a localized skin issue, helping participants understand why symptoms often persist, fluctuate, or worsen despite conventional topical care.
The course begins by clarifying how rosacea differs from acne and other inflammatory skin presentations, including why it typically emerges in adulthood and why it is closely associated with flushing, heat, and vascular changes. Participants explore how inflammatory load, dietary triggers, stress, temperature extremes, and digestive imbalance can amplify facial sensitivity and redness.
A significant focus is placed on the gut–skin connection and how disruptions in digestion and microbial balance may influence inflammatory signaling in the skin. The course also examines internal and external strategies traditionally used to support balance, emphasizing consistency, patience, and realistic expectations rather than quick fixes. Throughout, the emphasis remains on understanding patterns and supporting the body’s capacity to calm inflammation over time.
