NATURAL & EFFECTIVE RELIEF FOR ALLERGY SUFFERERS
If you don’t suffer from allergies yourself, you probably know someone who does. The statistics are alarming. According to Allergy UK, 21 million adults in the UK suffer from at least one allergy, and each year the number of allergy sufferers increases by 5%, half of all affected being children. The number of people suffering from serious allergies has risen by 25% in the last four year, eczema and asthma being the most common. With Spring on our doorstep it is also worth remembering that hay fever affects 15 million of us. Common treatments include antihistamines or steroids, for which long term use can carry the risk of side effects. If you are an allergy sufferer, looking for good results from a more natural treatment, homeopathy offers an effective alternative.
The Society of Homeopaths has compiled evidence of recent research, which offers “strong supporting evidence for the homeopathic treatment of allergic reactions including hayfever”. In one medical trial 70% of hay fever sufferers reported improvement in eye symptoms after the first consultation. I have also been able to report good outcomes for my allergic patients prescribed homeopathic remedies. An allergic reaction is your immune system’s response to a substance it believes to be harmful. Homeopathy works by supporting and strengthening your immune system, to the point where it does not feel the need to respond so negatively to the allergen or trigger, be that animal hair, dust, pollen or food.
Homeopathic remedies are selected carefully, to suit each patient, but those used more commonly may include Pulsatilla, Calcarea Carbonicum, Calcarea Iodum and Tuberculinum. Pothos tincture works effectively for dust/animal hair allergies, and I often prescribe Euphrasia for relief of itchy eyes during hay fever.
So remember: If you’re suffering the effects of an allergy now or dreading the promise of Spring, turn to your local registered homeopath for support and relief.
Please do not take homeopathic remedies without seeking advice from a qualified homeopath.
