Q: My children have bad allergies in the spring. Is there anything natural I can do?
Ans: YES! There are numerous things we can do.
If your child has not been allergy tested we can do that.It helps to know what things your child is allergic or not allergic to.
You can encase their pillows and mattresses in allergen free covers. (Check out MissionAllergy.com- they have amazing products)
You can certainly use the standard meds like Zyrtec, Claritin, or Allegra.
Honeopathic products like Similisan, Hydrastis, and Euphrasia can also be helpful acutely.
Cod liver oil and probiotics generally boost the immune system and may also be of some benefit.
The Herbaceutical AIR TEA produces consistently good results with allergies and we are happy to discuss all of these with you. In an appointment we can get more specifics for your child.
Thanks for asking and we look forward to a visit with you.
We love helping improve the health of your family!
