Why not try acupuncture instead of remaining dependent on potentially harmful prescription medications?
If seeing your first robin or watching the crocus beginning to surface makes you cringe, you are likely one of the millions of people that suffer from spring allergies in Walnut Creek every year.
Western medicine admits that treatment with medication only manages symptoms;
there is not a cure for allergies with traditional medication. 
Antihistamines including Zyrtec, Claritin, and Benadryl all can cause drowsiness and once the medication is stopped, symptoms resurface quickly if the allergen is still present.
Decongestants such as Sudafed, Afrin, or Claritin D can be used for a few days, but continual use can actually make symptoms worse. The side effects from decongestant use can include high blood pressure, insomnia or irritability. Combination medications that include both a decongestant and antihistamine are the most effective at treating chronic, seasonal allergies.
Bronchodilators are inhaled medications used to control asthma symptoms and remove mucous from the lungs. If overused, bronchodilators are potent drugs that can cause high blood pressure and rapid heart beats. Bronchodilators work by relaxing the muscle bands that constrict airflow, rapidly opening the airways and allowing breathing to improve.
Steroids (Flonase, Flovent, Nasonex) are also used for the treatment of severe allergies and side effects can include weight gain, high blood pressure, fluid retention, muscle weakness and diabetes. It may take one to two weeks of daily usage for steroids to become effective in the treatment of allergy symptoms.
Acupuncture relieves nasal congestion, watery eyes, itchy nose, and chronic nasal membrane inflammation.There is potential for allergies to be healed by the use of acupuncture.The goal of any allergy sufferer should be to take as little prescription medication as possible and still be free of allergy symptoms.

There is a wide diversity in the points in the body of a person by a therapist, and the covered by the needles selected. This is because an acupuncture for allergies reaction can also result from another cause.
