[Psychotherapy in atopic diseases].
Atopic diseases show many attributes and risk factors of psychosomatic diseases. The skin, on of our most essential organ of senses, is of considerable importance in the "dermatogenic state" of psychological and social development, as well as breathing. Children with atopic dermatitis and asthma bronchiale are very sensible and irritable. They divert their sick identity to the skin or to the lungs. Psychotherapy is therefore for many cases of atopic children and essential part of treatment, especially as a systemic therapy.
