Naturopathic Approach to Seasonal Allergies
Allergies, which are also known as allergic rhinitis or hay fever, are a common problem afflicting many people, particularly in the spring, summer, and fall. Common symptoms include a runny nose, sneezing, watery/itchy eyes, itchy nose or throat, and sinus symptoms including headaches and pressure behind the eyes. The primary trigger for this kind of allergic reaction is airborne allergens such as pollen, animal dander, mold, dust, and dust mites. Through skin scratch testing, we can pin point your specific allergies and use natural supplements, as well as sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) to help you be ready for the allergy season.
