Seasonal and Environmental Allergy Treatments
Several methods of allergy specific immunotherapy are used at our clinic:
Autohemotherapy
Autohemotherapy is a treatment that that has been developed in Germany and utilized throughout Europe to treat and manage many different conditions. With respect to allergies, a small amount of a patient’s own blood is mixed with certain homeopathic remedies to moderate allergic responses. The treatment involves 4 weekly 15 minute sessions. In our experience, responses vary, but overall a 90-100% reduction in the use of anti-histamines is reached in the high response portion (about a third) of our treated patients and about a 50% reduction in the use of anti-histamines is experienced in our moderate response patients (about a third).
Myer’s Injections with the Homeopathic Histamin
(See myer’s injections section) This therapy is done for more immediate relief of allergic symptoms. The frequency is this intravenous injection is performed as frequently as daily until symptoms are alleviated or manageable.
Allergy Specific Immunotherapy featuring Pollenguard Allergy Drops
This type of therapy replaces the weekly injections that used to be done at an allergists office to reduce allergic symptoms experienced with seasonal or environmental allergies. This therapy uses daily administration of sublingual drops to slowly desensitize an individual to allergies by acclimatizing a person’s immune system to constant low concentration exposure. In one study, the group that took one drop three times a day for two years was able to reduce their anti-histamine usage by 100%.
