ACUPUNCTURE FOR SEASONAL ALLERGIES
Allergy season is rapidly approaching, which means that flowering gardens, blooming trees, grass and cool sunny spring days will be the misery of existence for many people. Sneezing, wheezing, runny nose, itchy-watery eyes, and hives are just a few of the symptoms plague people with pollen allergies.
According to Chinese Medicine (TCM) dander and pollen are only 2 causes of allergies, supporting causes stem from stress, poor diet, constitutional weakness, mold, environmental toxins, and bacteria/viruses.
In TCM the Wei Qi is like the body’s immune system. If the Wei Qi is strong, you will be healthy. Acupuncture treatments can build the body’s energy, and balance the Wei Qi, and calm allergy symptoms.
Acupuncture is drug-free, safe, and natural method for eliminating symptoms, like rhinitis, sinusitis, and hives
and providing overall relief.
