What is

Allergies

Allergies occur when the immune system overreacts to harmless substances, triggering symptoms such as sneezing, itching, congestion, and inflammation. Common allergens include pollen, dust mites, pet dander, and certain foods. Naturopathic medicine offers holistic strategies to identify and address the root causes of allergies, providing relief and promoting immune balance.

Symptoms

  • Sneezing
  • Runny or congested nose
  • Itchy, watery eyes
  • Skin rashes or hives
  • Coughing or wheezing
  • Shortness of breath
  • Brain fog
  • Sinus congestion

Treatment options

We first need to identify the triggers of your allergies such as pollen, dust, grasses etc. We also delve into your overall  immune function, and any possible underlying factors such as gut health and environmental exposures. 

We may need to look into doing some allergy testing to better understand your triggers. Then we can look into dietary modifications, and lifestyle interventions to reduce exposure to allergens and support immune resilience.

Dietary wise we emphasise an anti-inflammatory diet that can also reduce immune molecules like histamine that contribute and sometimes directly cause allergy symptoms. 

Herbal Medicine can also be used to alleviate allergy symptoms, reduce inflammation, and support respiratory health. Herbal formulations can be tailored to address specific allergies and individual sensitivities, providing natural relief without the side effects of conventional medications.

By addressing allergies through naturopathic interventions you can reduce reliance on antihistamines and corticosteroids, alleviate symptoms, and improve overall quality of life.
