Allergies are an extremely disturbing and ubiquitous problem for Americans. Acupuncture can be a useful tool to help allergy sufferers alleviate symptoms without the use of medication. Allergy medications are known for carrying heavy side effects, including drowsiness.
With Chinese medicine (of which acupuncture is a practice) patients receive highly individualized diagnoses and treatment plans to address each person’s specific patterns of symptoms without the drowsiness and other side effects associated with many allergy drugs.
