What is Blue Lagoon psoriasis treatment?
Blue Lagoon psoriasis treatment is a unique natural treatment for people with psoriasis, based on bathing in Blue Lagoon geothermal seawater while its unique active ingredients: minerals, silica and algae exert their positive effects on the skin. Unspoiled natural environment, fresh air and pure Icelandic water are important parts of the treatment.

How can I enter the treatment?
All treatment guests need to have a referral from a dermatologist or their doctor. Application forms are available online. The forms can also be sent with traditional mail upon request.

How is the treatment day?
The treatment day begins with a refreshing shower and use of Blue Lagoon algae and mineral shower gel. Guests then bathe in the 38-41°C geothermal seawater in a lagoon reserved exclusively for treatment guests. Guests are advised to bathe for 60 minutes to allow the skin to get warm, increase blood circulation to the skin and make it more receptive to the geothermal seawater's active ingredients. It is recommended that guests who enter an intensive full treatment program bathe twice a day for one hour at a time. Outpatient guests bathe daily for one hour. UVB light therapy using modern light equipments is offered. Light comb therapy, a convenient option for people with scalp psoriasis, is also available, most treatment guests use light therapy simultaneous with Blue Lagoon treatment.
