Many of you know some of the common symptoms of allergies: sneezing, itchy and watery eyes, congestion and sinus pressure, headaches, brain fog, fatigue and weakness. These symptoms can range from minimal to life threatening depending on the depth of response your immune system.
The common way to care for allergies is to notice the symptoms, find the Zyrtec or Benadryl, suppress the immune system's warning sign of dysfunction within the body, the suppression of the immune system masks the dysfunction occurring in the nervous system, and then the cycle never breaks because no true healing has occurred.
This cycle is the reason why the allergies come back every year. The antihistamine medication does not address the underline cause of why your body is reacting the way it is.
An allergy response occurs due to a nervous system stuck in a sympathetic dominant state.
Sympathetic dominance leads the body to thinking it is in danger and in need to protect. Our body is designed intelligently to protect ourselves from something that is perceived as dangerous, however, when our body gets stuck in this state (sympathetic dominance) it starts to perceive everything in the world as dangerous. This signals the immune response of protection or also seen as expression as it tries to rid your body of what "dangerous"/"foreign" substance that has entered.
The key to breaking the allergy cycle is breaking the cycle of sympathetic dominance.
Chiropractic care is how to break the sympathetic dominance. Specifically, activating the vagus nerve. The activation of the vagus nerve breaks the sympathetic dominance cycle, breaking the allergy cycle. Your body no longer perceives the outside world as dangerous diminishing the allergy symptoms many of us know as "normal".
