Joint Pain and Allergies?

Do you have muscle aches and pains or joint aches and pains, or headaches?

We do not generally think of these as allergy symptoms, but they can be associated with allergies.

Even conditions such as arthritis and depression may be improved if one is treated successfully for allergies or food sensitivities which may exacerbate these illnesses.  If you would like allergy relief please consider a non-invasive, holistic method for allergy testing and treatment.

Here are Some Patients’ Statistics:

Patients with depression that are treated for allergies show a 70 % improvement after treating airborne allergies and show a further 30% improvement by eliminating food allergies.

Patients with migraine headaches are 82% improved by elimination of food allergies and a further  51% improved by treating airborne allergies.

Patients with common headaches are 61% improved by elimination of food allergies and a further  50% improved by treating airborne allergies.

Patients with sinus headaches are 58% improved by elimination of food allergies and a further 75% improved by treating airborne allergies.

Patients with joint pain or inflammatory arthritis, like rheumatoid arthritis  are 65% improved by eliminating food allergies and a further 49% improved by treating airborne allergies.

Patients with joint pain due to osteoarthritis are 4% improved by eliminating food allergies and a further 49% improved by treating airborne allergies.

So, while joint pain or arthritis are not commonly associated with allergies, it does make sense to get tested for allergies if you find your symptoms flare at certain times of the year,  or may be associated with certain foods, which may exacerbate symptoms like joint pain or muscle pain.

Customized Allergy Testing and Treatment

Consider a painless, non-invasive allergy test and a customized allergy treatment program to see if your health condition may be allergy related and improved by turning off the allergic response.
