A look at seasonal allergies

If you have seasonal allergies like

• dry, itchy, or red eyes

• congestion

• cough

• swollen glands

• facial pain, headache

You might be curious if there's something you can do about it....especially if there are side effects associated with the prescribed medication.

Acupuncture is a drug-free way to regulate your body's reaction to allergens, thereby decreasing the symptoms you experience. By increasing your circulation, transportation of nutrients between cells, and the elimination of waste, it helps the body handle the assault from foreign substances.

An acupuncture point prescription can often treat concurrent issues within the same session. Sometimes the extra resources required for the body's defense leave it shorthanded to take care of other chronic issues, causing a worsening of digestion problems or joint pain. Many patients have multiple issues they would like treated, such as anxiety, allergies, and back pain. Since acupuncture targets the underlying condition that is a unique landscape or template for what develops, the treatment can incorporate all of the symptoms the body is presenting as information about what the main condition is.

The landscape may present as being generally too dry, or too cold, or might have too many interruptions to the distribution of nutrients or fluids. When we treat the general pattern, the system as a whole starts operating at a higher level. The affected parts fall into the newly established rhythm that emanates from the restored template.
