Allergies

Seasonal hayfever, ongoing allergic rhinitis, and skin flares such as eczema can wear people down, especially in Brisbane’s long allergy seasons. Chinese medicine approaches these as patterns of inflammation, congestion, and immune reactivity that can be calmed and supported over time.

Acupuncture is often used to ease sneezing, itchy eyes, sinus pressure, and that “always blocked” feeling. Herbal formulas may be prescribed when symptoms are stubborn or when skin and gut are involved together.

Treatment can be timed around your worst seasons, or used year-round if allergies are constant. It works well alongside conventional care and antihistamines when you need them.
