Natural Relief For Oak Pollen Allergies

Oak trees produce lage volumes of pollen from their fuzzy, worm-like pollen pods and trigger major reactions in allergic individuals. The fine oak polen particles are carried by the wind, and the spent pollen pods collect in piles on the ground.

The oak pollen coats surfaces like windows and cars with a yellowish film and the pollen pods can stain the surfaces they accumulate on. Oak allergies produce a mixture of symptoms including red, irritated eyes, major sinus drainage, sneezing, and coughing and these symptoms may be resistant to most common allergy remedies.

Some oak allergy sufferers turn to drastic treatment measures like steroids to try to reduce the reaction. Some may be motivated to try to get rid of the allergies through allergy shots, not knowing that it typically takes years to get good results.

Many oak allergy sufferers will seek out natural relief from treatments like nutritional supplements, herbal remedies, homeopathy and/or acupuncture, and all of these forms of treatment will provide some degree of temporary relief for the majority of people. But what if there was a way to do more than just suppress allergy symptoms?

Well, there is actually a way to get rid of oak allergies and other allergies long-term as with doing allergy shots, but using a method that gets results in days, not years, and doesn't require one to repeatedly get jabbed with needles. This method is part of the emerging field of "energy medicine" and is safe, effective, and painless.

The most widely-practiced of these natural allergy relief methods is NAET, which stands for Nambudripad's Allergy Elimination Technique. Dr. Devi Nambudripad is a chiropractor and acupuncturist from California who accidentally discovered how stimulating specific acupuncture meridians while being exposed to the allergens one reacts to can reset the body so that it no longer reacts to those allergens.

Since the development of NAET in the 1980's, other similar techniques have been developed, and there are more streamlined allergy elimination methods now in use, but NAET remains the most widely practiced. To be sure, all of the energy based allergy elimination methods are a bit strange, and may seem a bit too good to be true, but in 8 years of practicing ASERT (Allergy and Sensitivity Elimination and Reprogramming Technique, one of the newer, more streamlined techniques based on the principles of NAET), I have seen great success with even the most chronic of allergy sufferers.

I practice in San Antonio, Texas, and due to the strangeness of this technique and because San Antonio is an area where much of the population is still very sketical of any kind of non-conventional healthcare, I do the allergy desensitization technique on people with a very unique payment policy. I perform the full treatment (not just a "sample" or "limited trial") and they can experience the results of my method before any payment is required. I don't ask for any money or payment information of any kind at the time of treatment and I let people test the allergy elimination method with the agreement that they will pay me when they are satisfied that it has been effective for them. Most of these patients come back to pay, send a payment in the mail or call my office with a credit card payment within a couple of weeks of having the allergy desensitization procedure, which I think is a pretty strong testimonial to the legitimacy of this technique and a powerful rebuttal to the critics of energy medicine who insist that these methods are nothing but a scam.

The great part about these techniques is that the results occur quickly. For seasonal problems like oak allergies, people may have severe symptoms for a month or two, and are looking for some type of natural allergy relief right away, not something that will take years to be effective like allergy shots, and not something that can have serious side-effects like steroids. With energy-based allergy elimination, relief usually occurs within a day and comes without the risk of any serious side-effects.

Better yet, the effects of energy-based allergy elimination last for several months to several years because these techniques actually get rid of the allergies, not just suppress allergy symptoms and inflammation. So, oak allergy sufferers can usually go through multiple oak seasons without any problems without ongoing treatment after going through the allergy desensitization.

The effects of NAET are often claimed by practitioners to be permanent, and this may be true in many cases, but it has been my observation that allergies can re-develop. This is most commonly seen when somone is sick with a cold or flu, or suffers a major physical or emotional trauma during a high pollen season. It has been my observation that the body appears to develop allergies in a "guilt by association" manner. What I mean by this is that when there is an activation of the body's immune system and inflammatory response from something other than pollen, the body may begin to associate the immune reaction with the presence of a given allergen, thus triggering a reaction to the allergen when the body is exposed to it again. In other words, if you catch the flu during a time when oak pollen is high, you may develop oak allergies.

In any case, energy-based allergy desensitization is very much for real, and it offers fast, effective natural allergy relief for oak pollen allergies, as well as any other type of allergy (including airborne allergens, foods, and skin-contact allergies).
