Frequently Asked Questions About Allergies and Sinus Issues

Acupuncture modulates immune response, reducing the overreaction that causes allergy symptoms. It also reduces inflammation, improves circulation, and promotes drainage of congested sinuses.
Ideally, begin treatment 4-6 weeks before your typical allergy season starts. This helps prepare your immune system.

However, acupuncture can also provide relief during active allergy symptoms.
Most patients need 6-10 treatments during allergy season. Some continue weekly during peak season, then monthly for maintenance.

Treatment frequency depends on symptom severity.
Many patients significantly reduce their need for antihistamines and decongestants. Some are able to stop medications entirely.

We work with your allergist to safely adjust medications as symptoms improve.
