Fatigue, headaches, sore throat…
Have you had fatigue for over two months or on and off during the year?
Do you have a rash, fatigue or sinus problems that suddenly occurred after moving into a new home?
Do you have headaches that are unexplained?
Do you have unexplained intestinal or vaginal issues?
Do you have sinus or throat problems reoccurring that are not infectious?
This could be allergies.
Skin rash, psoriasis, asthma…
Do you have skin rash (eczema, hives, psoriasis), nasal, or lung problems (asthma) that occur in the Spring and/or Fall?
This could be pollen allergies.
IBS, GERD, stuffy nose all year long….
If you have allergy symptoms all year long think of dust or mold allergies. Have you been diagnosed with ulcerative colitis or irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) or gastroesophageal reflux (GERD)? This could be a food insensitivity or digestive issues that may be exacerbated by allergies.
Mold and food allergies could be the cause. Even arthritis can be aggravated by food sensitivities and mold allergies.
What are allergies?
Allergies are an exaggerated reaction of the immune system to a substance that would not normally cause a reaction in most individuals. The immune system perceives a particular substance (dust, mold, pollen, chemical, etc.) as a threat and triggers the release of histamine, causing an allergic symptom.
Classic allergy symptoms are sneezes, runny nose, hives, itchy and watery eyes, and itchy throat. In fact, allergies may cause a vast range of symptoms, from fatigue and depression to constipation, joint pain, facial swelling, headaches and chronic sinusitis. Allergies put stress on the immune system and can affect every major system of the body.
Needle Free Allergy Treatment
The unique comprehensive allergy testing and treatment strategy at NIHA addresses both the immune response and the autonomic nervous system response to the allergen.
Have you been avoiding visiting an allergy doctor because you or your child hates needles? We understand.
At NIHA, we use needle-free, non-invasive allergy testing and treatment. Patients are so pleased to find the cause of their problems and to finally be relieved of their allergy symptoms.
