Allergy:  Spring is associated with an allergy season in Chinese Medicine,  even though sometimes, Fall { Lung Season } can give rise to Allergies or other respiratory problems as well ).  Liver is the organ associated in Chinese Medicine with this season. So your Acupuncturist will normally balance and detox your liver to improve nasal discharge, watery eyes, red itchy eyes, skin itching and hives and all other symptoms associated with seasonal allergies. Other types of allergies can also be treated with Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine as well.

Allergy and Allergic reactions.

For most people Spring can be the worst time for Allergies. Liver stores blood and processes toxins in our bodies. Some of the symptoms caused by imbalance of this organ are: eye pain, many types of headaches, itchy and watery eyes and running nose (clear or green or yellow discharge).  Acupuncture alone or with Chinese Herbs  and Homeopathy can be effective tool for a seasonal and long term relief.    

How Acupuncture helps skin conditions ? We do not know enough, however we do know that by regulating body's immune system and immune responses, Acupuncture can reduce inflammations, promote production of cortisone and bring more blood and nutrients to the organs and skin.

Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine can successfully treat various skin diseases.  In our clinic we combine Acupuncture with Homeopathy, Chinese Herbs and sometimes blood letting for maximum results. Conditions like Itching, Hives, Eczema and redness can be helped and were helped on many occasions in our clinic.

Many allergic skin reactions can be treated with Acupuncture and other Holistic modalities with out harmful side effects.  Many auto immune disorders including skin related are now coming up more and more, because of our toxic environment, new generation of super drugs and multiple combination of drugs and  daily stresses.

Whatever your health concern is Acupuncture, Homeopathy and other modalities used in our office provide a safe or complimentary treatment to your health condition.  Also please bear in mind that even though Acupuncture works fast in some cases such as psoriasis and eczema it may take time to detoxify the body and bring desired results.
