Acupuncture is always your best “first line of defense” when it comes to allergies, but luckily, we also have herbal remedies that can boost and prolong your relief.
There are 2 “go to” remedies for seasonal allergies and many of you may already have a bottle of these tablets in your “home herbal pharmacy”: Jade Screen & Xanthium or Jade Windscreen.
Jade Screen & Xanthium is traditionally used when you have a runny nose, post-nasal drip, sneezing, itchy eyes etc. The herbs in this formula tend to dry dampness and phlegm, but if you don’t have any nasal discharge and are just experiencing congestion/sinus pressure, Jade Windscreen may be a better solution for you. Both remedies serve to boost your body’s immune system which lessens your level of reactivity to these natural allergens.
At Best Acupuncture, we carry Golden Flower herbal formulas in tablet and liquid form. This company uses the highest quality raw materials, without the impurities, adulterants, or questionable ingredients found in some other prepared formulas. Their products exceed current international GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) standards.
Please remember to schedule an Herbal Consult with your acupuncturist before purchasing any herbs as they can steer you towards the most effective formula for your situation. And if you are feeling those allergy symptoms coming on, make sure you call the office to get on the schedule sooner rather than later!
