Allergies Treated at the Abiding Spirit Center

Allergies occur
when the body's immune system misidentifies a normally harmless substance as a
threat to the body. Common allergens (substances that produce allergic
reactions) are foods, pollen, animal dander, mold, insect venom, and dust
mites. An inflammatory reaction takes place in an attempt to eject this
substance from the system, resulting in a variety of symptoms.
Traditional Chinese Medicine has a variety of treatments that are quite effective to help sufferers of allergies. Modalities such as acupuncture, herbal formulas and nutritional therapy are used to effectively reduce or eliminate symptoms of allergies.
Several Chinese patterns of disharmony may be involved in cases of allergies. In seasonal allergies, such as hay fever, the most common diagnosis is wind and dampness, accompanied by underlying weakness which makes the body vulnerable to the onset of symptoms such as sneezing, itching eyes and throat, and a heavy sensation in the head with copious mucus.
Treatment plans for allergies vary greatly, and the possible results range from temporary relief to complete remission. Acupuncture frequently relieves allergy symptoms immediately. Diet plays an important part in controlling seasonal allergies, and your practitioner can recommend foods to avoid in order to lessen symptoms. TCM herbal formulas can also be very effective in addressing the symptoms as well as the causes of seasonal allergies, as well as food and environmental allergies.
