Acupuncture Against Allergies
If you’re struggling with annoying allergy symptoms and equally exhausted by the side effects of pharmaceuticals, acupuncture may be the solution you’re looking for.
Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medical technique that involves using thin needles to stimulate nerve clusters and organ functions within the body.
During an acupuncture session, the placement of needles is chosen carefully to address specific symptoms. When it comes to allergies, needles placed on the front of the body can boost immune system function and help alleviate allergy symptoms.
Not only does acupuncture improve immune function, but it also triggers a histamine response, which improves blood flow and optimizes organ function to alleviate unwanted allergy side effects.
Functional Medicine – Getting to the Root Cause of Your Body’s Response
Functional Medicine is an approach that goes beyond the symptoms to help you address the underlying causes of allergies.

Gut problems can be closely linked with allergies.
Did you know that over 60% of your immune system resides in the gut?
Revamping your nutritional habits can help heal the gut, and work to reduce allergic responses.
Ultimately, by fixing your gut health, you’re not only keeping your body healthy but also boosting your immunity against seasonal irritants.
