Seasonal Allergies and Chiropractic Care at Baltimore Back and Pain Center

Are you a spring allergy sufferer? From pollen to grass to weeds, the airborne allergen levels are sky high in Maryland. That means allergy symptoms - sniffling, sneezing, itchy and watery eyes are maxxed and will be that way for a while longer. While many reach for over the counter and prescription drugs to help combat their allergy woes, there are also some great natural and Chiropractic care approaches you can try. Traditional allergy treatments only deal with the symptoms and don’t address the cause, because there really is no cure for allergies.

Some simple ways to help battle your seasonal allergies naturally include simply trying to keep allergens out. Pollen can collect in your hair, on your clothes and be tracked in to your house (by you or a pet) where it combines with household dust.

Taking an evening shower and changing your clothes can help cut down on allergens that you are breathing in. Eat bee pollen or pure, raw honey to help your immune system build natural antibodies to the pollens you are most frequently exposed to. Nasal irrigation can help wash away allergens and excess mucus.

Another way to tackle allergies is to make an appointment at Baltimore Back and Pain Center. Believe it or not, Chiropractic care can help provide allergy relief! According to Dr. Dorn, Chiropractic care can help with boosting your immune system and help to keep your body operating at peak performance. The body’s immune system helps to prevent disease and infection and deal with stress as well as tackling the invasion of foreign substances like pollution, dust, dead cells, etc. Call our Baltimore chiropractic office today to schedule an appointment 410-662-4476.
