Can Homeopathy Cure Your Allergies?

It is a sign of the times in which we live that the number of allergy sufferers is on the rise. As we take less time to tend to our relationship with ourselves, our fellow human beings and our environment, our bodies become unbalanced and our immune systems exhibit exaggerated reactions to common “allergens”.

Allergies are inappropriate or exaggerated reactions of the immune system (running nose, blocked sinuses or even anaphylactic shock) to substances that in most people cause no symptoms. These reactions can be caused by common “allergens” like dust, pollen, animal fur or a particular food.

Homeopathy can offer a gentle, effective alternative to toxic pharmaceuticals. Homeopathic medicine works with the body’s natural responses to strengthen the immune system from within. Once the immune system balance is restored, the body will no longer produce exaggerated reactions (such as sneezing, asthma, coughing) to the “allergens” it comes in contact with.
