Acupuncture for Allergies
It is spring! And spring is a time of coming out of dormancy and green shoots coming up from the earth. It can also be a time when allergies return. Chinese Medicine is a holistic medicine that looks at the individual and how allergies are affecting them. Acupuncture reduces the histamine response of the body and boosts the immune system so that it reacts less to the external environment. Chinese herbal formulas can also be a great way to help with allergies. Herbal Formulas that are commonly used address whether there is heat involved in your symptoms (yellow mucus, heat in the face, infection) or if you are having more white or clear mucus and sneezing or maybe you are getting common colds often and your immune system needs boosting. Whether you are sneezing, have itchy eyes, or skin, runny nose or fatigue, Acupuncture and Chinese herbs can help to bring the body back into balance, working to boost the immune system, reduce stress (which weakens the immune system), and reduce the inflammatory response.
