Acupuncture for Allergies
Allergy treatment is one of our deepest areas of expertise. Our allergy patients
typically find relief from their worst symptoms in just several treatments.
In our experience, acupuncture is especially effective in relieving the following
symptoms:
- Sneezing
- Runny nose
- Rash, Itchiness
- Congestion
- Confusion and Dizziness
Whether your allergies are caused by pollen, insects, mites, chemicals, foods, or
medications, the underlying cause of your body's allergic response is the same.
This is why acupuncture, which has been proven to have beneficial effects for the
immune system, can help you overcome even the most severe allergies.

Amazing does not begin to describe my experience with Dr. Chen and Mr. Gu. I have
had allergies all my life with my worst symptoms being sneezing, sinus congestion,
and runny nose. I have tried all the standard treatments which were either not effective
or caused too many side effects. I found Acupuncture for Natural Healing through
citysearch like many other people. I was told that I should see immediate relief
after just the first treatment but long term effects may take some more treatments.
After the first session, which lasted about 45 minutes, my nose began to run uncontrollably.
This lasted for TWO ENTIRE DAYS. Never in my life had my nose run so much... I had
to grab a tissue literally every minute for two entire days. After those two days,
my allergies COMPLETELY DISAPPEARED. This was the best thing that could have happened
for me and my Allergies and I cannot be more thankful to these wonderful healers.
I will spread the word about acupuncture and its amazing effects everywhere I go,
for the rest of my life!

 Ed Bloom: “For
at least two years, I’ve participated in Mr. Gu’s weekly class. His exercise program
is unique, designed to stimulate the internal organs, increase the blood flow and
build the immune system. They do not concentrate on building muscle strength, although
to some extent that may be a by-product. “My results have been: substantially less
asthma, a dramatic reduction in the number of colds, increased endurance, and a
general feeling of well being.”

reports that her asthma condition has improved since she has been taking Gu’s class.
