Everything old is new again

Wet wraps cut need for drugs in kids with eczema
The largest study ever conducted on wet wrap therapy shows it can dramatically improve skin conditions like atopic dermatitis and eczema. Experts at National Jewish Health in Denver saw a 71 percent improvement in symptoms without having to rely on traditional therapies like antibiotics, steroids or immunotherapy drugs. 
Little quibble- I'm pretty sure baths and wet wraps are historically the traditional therapy.
Drugs are the modern medical industry "solution". 

ps.  uh huh
