Chinese Medicine Offers Long-Term Relief for National Allergy Week May 16-20

With Spring in full swing, more than 50 million people will suffer from allergies this season. According to the National Institute of Allergies and Infectious Diseases, allergies are the sixth leading cause of chronic disease in the United States , costing the health care system $18 billion annually. Chronic sinusitis alone affects nearly 35 million people in the United States . Western medicine has thus far been unable to provide a cure for allergies; its medications only treat symptoms.

Acupuncture and Nambudripad's Allergy Elimination Treatment (NAET), by contrast, can provide safe, drug -free solutions to allergies. NAET allows the body to rid itself of its allergic response to the rebalancing the body.

From a Western medical perspective, an allergy is an overreaction by the immune system. NAET treatments integrate aspects of chiropractic, kinesiology and acupuncture to balance and strengthen the immune system so that these overreactions stop occurring. These techniques balance the flow of energy, or QI, in the body, so that allergy symptoms no longer occur. By allowing the body to find balance with the allergy, the immune system is able to strengthen, resulting in improved health and the removal of allergy symptoms. This also means that rather than simply attempting to alleviate the symptoms of the allergy, NAET and acupuncture go directly after the source to essentially cure the allergy itself.
