A recent study* has shown that acupuncture enables hay fever sufferers to resort to their antihistamines less frequently.
Patients usually come to me once a year for an intense but effective session! Most people report less pronounced symptoms and a decrease in use of their usual medications.
If you're a victim of hay fever, it's best to come for treatment before the start of the pollen season, as acupuncture protects against symptoms by strengthening the immune system. Ideally treatment should be timed to boost your resistance before the pollen strikes. However, even after the itchy eyes and runny nose start, acupuncture can still relieve the symptoms by boosting your natural endorphins and reducing the discomfort that hay fever causes.
