If you are well aware of the familiar sensation when an allergy begins to flare up, the ongoing annoyance of symptoms or the worry of an unexpected exposure consistently stops you from fully enjoying life, you have arrived at the right place.
We frequently encounter situations involving friends or family members, and children who suffer from food sensitivities, environmental allergies, or chemical allergies. Patients visit our acupuncture clinic in Edina, MN, in a quest for allergy relief, having not found success with conventional doctors and allergy treatments.
Allergic reactions result from an "overly sensitive" or malfunctioning immune system. The conventional Western medical usually manages allergies by suppressing the immune response with antihistamines or advising patients to avoid the allergens. The cost of an EPI Pen for a life threatening anaphylactic shock can be quite high. The necessity of taking antihistamines daily or avoiding allergens is a significant inconvenience.
At our clinic, we offer SOLIMAN'S Auricular Acupuncture Treatment (SAAT), which has demonstrated 80% to 95% long-term remission for patients without the need for medication or daily antihistamines. SAAT targets the immune system's adverse reaction to allergens with lasting remission. Additionally, it eliminates the need for painful skin-prick tests at the allergist's office.
What can we treat?
Food allergies ~ peanut, tree nuts, fruits, vegetables, shellfish, meat (alpha-gal), gluten/wheat, soy, dairy, corn, eggs, sugar, and more
Environmental allergies ~ dog, cat, animal dander, dust and dust mites, mold, pollens, trees, grasses, weeds, poison ivy, and more
Chemical allergies ~ body & home care product allergies such as fragrances, cleaning products, perfumes, and more
Pharmaceutical & medical supply allergies ~ latex, aspirin, penicillin, and more
How does SAAT work?
Diagnosis: Our allergy specialist will begin by process of elimination to identify the specific allergens affecting you. If you have a report from your western medicine doctor listing the allergens you're sensitive to, this will expedite our process. If you suspect an unknown allergy, we will collaborate with you to determine the source of your reaction. This might involve avoiding certain exposures and maintaining an allergy diary/log.
Treatment: After identifying the allergen, we will locate the reaction point in your ear for the specific allergens. The SAAT treatment uses an incredibly small spinex pin to eliminate the allergic reaction, also removing any cross allergies related to that allergen. Patients often wonder about the pain level of this small needle compared to syringe needles used in a medical doctor's office. Our ear is made up of soft cartilage, and the needle is extremely small and gentle, minimizing pain. Even children can tolerate this type of needle.
Treatment duration: The pin will remain in place for at least 3 weeks.
