The Skin

THE SKIN is our most cherished, admired and visible organ.  Cherished; it provides protection against the external elements and also allows us to experience the outside world more intimately through the wealth of sensations that arise in the skin.   Admired; touched, stroked, gazed at, kissed, tickled, loved.  Visible; the skin is one of the most obviously visible organs of the body and one of the least covered up! [At least in Australia.]

Functions Of The Skin

· Body temperature regulation.

· A reservoir for blood (the others being the liver and kidneys).

· Protection from external environment.

· Cutaneous sensations.

· Excretion and absorption.

· Vitamin D synthesis.

The Skin is the body’s most visible system or organ; one that often defines our very self – image.  It is often the first thing we look at upon waking to determine our state of inner health. It shows if we have had a hard night or have been kind to it by drinking plenty of water and have had a good night’s sleep.
