Nothing I have tried, other than taking regular seawater baths, works better on my Psoriasis than AIM CWR does.  If you are unable to take regular seawater baths, this is definitely the next best thing.  This product is basically concentrated seawater with some added minerals.

You can get information on CWR at the AIM web in several areas, but they are constantly rearranging their site and last time I checked it was a real clunker.  The PDF Brochure above is from 2003 and is a much more convenient source of information, and should still be accurate.

I suggest that initially you purchase from any available source and start with 2 or 4 12oz bottles, which should be sufficient to test that CWR will work for you.  After that it is best to order a case (24, 12oz bottles) at a time from the AIM web.  If your condition is chronic you will probably save some cash in the long run by becoming a "member", getting your own ID, etc.

This stuff used to be super expensive (about $250 per case), but sometime ago they suddenly cut the cost by 50%, so it is now about $125/case.  When you do the math it is typically pretty cost effective.  You can get 96 3oz treatments out of a case (they recommend 2oz), which means you can get almost two soaks per week over a years time with one case.  Add up the annual cost of a treatment like Dovenex and you may find that using CWR is actually less expensive.

I've tried a number of hopeful psoriasis remedies, including a variety of brands of sea salts, and nothing comes close to this product.  It is pricey, but I got a membership with AIM and buy it by the case.  CWR is far more effective and friendlier than any psoriasis treatment I've been given by a doctor.  It was pretty much through dumb luck that I found out about this product from an acquaintance.

Due to the small mineral particles in CWR it would probably not be a good idea to use it in a whirlpool, or any tub with a pump, etc., that may be abraded by the particles.  Or at least do not run the pump.

You can apply CWR directly or dilute it in a tub to soak in.  I use both methods.

For tub soaks (both indoors and out) I use 3oz per treatment.  I usually soak for an hour or so, but the data I've read claims that fifteen minutes and 2oz is suitable.  I believe the AIM web site has a section with testimonials about CWR.

Direct application can do a lot of good, but it is going to burn like fire if you have any cuts or scrapes or really raw skin, so be cautious with this method.

As with seawater baths, exposure to sunshine and fresh air will help a lot.  So minimal clothing and closely cropped hair will speed up the healing of typically covered areas.  I've had opportunities to regularly get CWR, sun, and air treatments in my birthday suit, and this experience had 100% convinced me that all three elements, and no clothes, are critical for best results.  But even winter soaks indoors will do you a lot of good with this product.

You can use this 50 gallon Rubbermaid tub (a.k.a. stock tank) for outdoor CWR treatment soaks.  I bought one at a local feed & seed for about $70 (and it fit in the back seat of a mid sized sedan), but you can find them on-line as well.

This tub is large enough that you can effectively soak every part of your body with it.  A 6'2", 190lb adult can lie down completely submerged in this tub with their legs hanging over the edge.  The same person can also sit upright with their legs completely submerged, thus providing full coverage.  I've found that if I fill the tub up to the first rim it provides exactly enough water for maximum coverage when I lie down.

The 50 gallon tub is very light in weight so it is easy to move around and store.  It is extremely durable, and if well cared for will likely last a lifetime.  Since it is plastic (and UV rays break down plastic based materials) it will last even longer if it is stored out of the sun.  There is a drain fitting on it, but I find it is much easier to bail out enough water till I can lift it by the side and tip it over to completely drain it.  So far the CWR has shown no diverse affect on my lawn.  I store it by leaning it against a building (where every once in awhile the wind knocks it over).

If you do not have a heated water source handy to fill this tub up on slightly cooler days, you will want to fill it up early so the sun can heat it up.  The black plastic acts well as a solar heat collector.  Of course this also means that in Summer the water can get pretty warm.

You will get the maximum soak coverage if you can put the tub on a level surface.  I've found the easiest way to accomplish this is to keep sprinkling dirt and grass seed on the spot where the tub rests until it is level.

There are larger size tubs in this same design that I considered purchasing, especially since the price differential was not that great.  I believe this is the best option however because it is easier to manage and gives a higher concentration of CWR solution per gallon
