During the years 1975 to 1993 a total of 192 patients from Copenhagen with psoriasis, were sent to the Dead Sea, Israel, for a four week treatment of sun exposure and bathing. Total or almost total remission was obtained in 73% and significant improvement in 20% of the 163 patients at the post-treatment hospital control. A patient questionnaire filled in by 233 patients at the treatment centres in 1989-1991 showed that 88% of the patients were very satisfied with their stay. The length of remission was one to three months for 55% of the patients. Climate therapy is a valuable alternative treatment with an efficacy comparable to topical treatments for psoriasis.
1975年至1993年间，共有192名来自哥本哈根的牛皮癣患者被送往以色列死海，接受为期四周的日光照射和沐浴治疗。在治疗后医院复查时，163名患者中73%实现了完全或几乎完全缓解，20%有显著改善。1989年至1991年期间，治疗中心的233名患者填写的一份患者问卷显示，88%的患者对他们的就医体验非常满意。55%的患者缓解期为一至三个月。气候疗法是一种有价值的替代疗法，其疗效与牛皮癣的局部治疗相当。
