Chinese Medicine & Allergies
For some of the 50 million allergy sufferers, Chinese medicine may offer an option, researchers say. The National Institute of Allergies and Infectious Diseases reports allergies are the sixth-leading cause of chronic disease in the United States, costing the healthcare system $18 billion annually.Chronic sinusitis alone affects nearly 35 million Americans. Researchers at the institute say acupuncture and Nambudripad's Allergy Elimination Treatment may provide a drug-free solution. NAET allows the body to rid itself of its allergic response by rebalancing the body, they explain. The system involves a combination of chiropractic techniques, kinesiology and acupuncture. It aims to balance and strengthen the immune system to cease the body's over-reactions to pollen and other allergens, they say.
