Acupuncture works by stimulating the nervous system, which in turn releases neurotransmitters and hormones that help to regulate various bodily functions.

Allergies are caused by an overactive immune system that mistakenly identifies harmless substances as harmful and triggers an immune response.

Using specific points that help to regulate the immune and respiratory functions, acupuncture can help treat allergies by strengthening the immune system and reducing inflammation in the body. The goal is to stimulate the body's natural healing response and reduce the symptoms of allergies, such as sneezing, runny nose, headache and itchy eyes.
