Does Acupuncture help with Flu and Seasonal Allergies?

Transitioning into colder months can mean sickness and allergies, Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine are two holistic approaches that people can turn to for relief.

Acupuncture for Colds and Flu

TCM can help support you when you are sick by helping you to sleep better and manage symptoms like congestion, headaches, body aches and overall fatigue. Think of acupuncture as an ancient tool for recovery while your immune system is not working optimally.

Acupuncture and Seasonal Allergies

If you suffer from seasonal allergies, acupuncture can help reduce symptoms such as nasal congestion. sneezing, sinus pressure and itchy/watering eyes. Regular treatments are recommended during allergy season and flare ups.

Herbal Medicine

Herbs are often used alongside acupuncture treatments. Your practitioner looks specifically at your symptoms while choosing a formula to support your body’s response during illness. Herbs are used to aid your body’s overall balance to make the illness more manageable. With allergies, practitioners look beyond the symptoms and look at the patterns that contribute to reoccurring allergies. Which means supportive herbs and treatments outside of allergy season as well.

TIP: Oil Of Oregano is also used to stave off illness and respiratory infections. Anti fungal, anti parasitic and anti inflammatory. Dr. Maggie has a formula made from her home garden. Purchase in SHOP.
