Springtime Allergy Relief...Literally, a Phone Call Away!
Yeah, Spring is officially here! Longer days, blossoms everywhere, beautiful. But with Spring, unfortunately comes Allergies (for a lot of people). But it doesn't have to be this way! You can be free of your allergies to trees, grasses, pollens, etc. How would it feel to be free of your allergies this season?
There are holistic solutions for your allergies that could allow you or your child to be free of the need for medications, shots or other treatments. The treatments I offer are gentle, highly effective, non-invasive and can be done over the phone. They are so simple, my youngest patient (four years old) did a treatment while sitting on her Mom's lap over videophone! They are so powerful, that lasting change can be made in one treatment.
Why is Holistic Allergy Relief Important?
Allergies cause needless suffering and take a toll on your health and your finances, especially if you're taking medications. As you may know, sometimes medications:
- Aren't always enough to control symptoms
- Can cause many unwanted side effects
- Don't solve the underlying problem
- Don't bring true and lasting relief
- Are expensive financially
- Can take a toll on your body
Plus, allergies can limit your activities and your life. If you suffer, you don't need me to tell you this. If your child suffers, I'm sure you don't need convincing about the impact.
As I was walking at the Farmer's Market in Campbell, and I saw a man wearing a surgical mask. I assumed he was trying to protect himself from allergens and this makes me want to help! Many of my patients know I have allergy solutions, but there are so many other people that suffer that could be free of them.
Thereofore, I am offering $35.00 off ($115.00 total) an allergy relief sesssion until 4/15/10 (sessions normally $150.00).
Here's a Testimonial from Spring 2009:
"I have had allergies my entire life. I was allergic to trees and grass. It was a big struggle for me when the allergy season hit. I tried everything from shots, pills etc...Nothing worked. I hired Kara over the phone (Acupressure) to see what she could do. After one session, my allergies are gone! It is amazing. I wish I knew about Kara years ago. Thank you Kara! You are the best!"

Once the allergy is addressed, treatments don't usually need to be repeated for the same allergen. So, if you do a session this Spring, you'll not only enjoy this season, but next Spring, you can welcome the fresh air wholeheartedly!
If you or someone you love suffers from allergies, please call me, I can help you. You can also book an appointment online.
Please note: This solution is most helpful when symptoms are severe and you're aware of your allergen(s). If you're allergic to many allergens and your immune system is weak, you may also benefit from Acupuncture. For more information, click here.

Natural Solutions for Allergy Relief for Adults and Children
Are you or your child suffering from allergies to trees, pollen or grasses, even in the winter time? Unfortunatley, you are not alone. Certain warmer areas of the world, like the San Francisco Bay area and surrounding regions have a climate that supports year round growth of plants that can cause allergies. It seems like once one allergy producing tree stops blooming, some grass starts up. Yes, certain seasons are obviously worse, like spring, but I have many patients complain of allergy symptoms in the winter months.
The good thing is, I have some really great solutions to address everyone's needs, even if you live far away. Here are a few of the treatment possibilities, and my patients choose from a single solution or a combination. See which one sounds good to you:
Acupressure (In person or over the phone):
This option is best for moderate to very severe reactions to cats, other pets, grass, pollen, trees, and other flowering plants.
Benefits:
Once the immune response is regulated and returns to baseline, the treatment doesn't need repeating. This option is good for children, teenagers and adults. It's especially effective for children and each allergy is usually cleared in a 30 min session. Usually, adults require a 60 min session for type of allergy, but sometimes other allergies not address spontaneously improve.
Drawbacks:
If there are several allergy reactions, or if they are chronic, yet not severe, this option can require more sessions, but not always.
Supplementation:
I've been recommending a supplement for some of my patients with more general, and less severe allergies with great results. The supplement contains well known ingredients, like Quercitin, along with other lesser known ingredients. Oftentimes, patients taper off the tablets over time and they remain allergy free.
Benefits:
This supplement is taken once daily and costs $23.00 for a 3 month supply and is safe for children.
Drawbacks:
This supplement contains animal products, so it is not suitable for vegans or vegetarians.
Acupuncture:
This is always an option for people that don't want to take supplements or who have more general, low grade allergy symptoms.
Benefits:
This is a good choice if you have chronic colds and flus, stress, digestive issues or other health issues that can be treated simultaneously. While this is a great support, and patients feel much better overall, this is not the best option when your allergies are specific and severe. For instance, if you are severely allergic to cats, or grass, and this is your only allergy, Acupressure would be a better option for you or your child.
Drawbacks:
Sometimes it takes more treatments to find allergy relief than with Acupressure.
These are the best solutions I've found, and I offer them knowing they have helped many of my patients with solid results. You can read a few testimonials here.
So, if you're tired of the sneezing, coughing, and runny nose related to your allergies or if you don't want to take allergy medications or give them to your child, call me, I'd be happy to help you with allergy relief.

Life Long Allergy to Cats is Gone in One Session
Here's a testimonial from a patient that had a severe allergic reactions to cats for as long as he could remember. If he was in the same room as a cat, or where a cat had been, he ended up running out of the room sneezing, coughing, gasping for air and rubbing his eyes.
Here's his description of how things changed for him after his single Acupressure session regarding his allergy to cats:
'Cats: That piece of work was amazing. After the work I spent a weekend in a house with a cat and at first there was a little reaction but by the end of the weekend I didn't even know there was a cat in the house. I have always had a severe allergy to cats and I am now free to be around them. I still don't like cats but that is another issue.

Testimonial: Allergies to Trees and Grasses Gone with One Session
Here's a testimonial from a patient I treated over the phone for allergies using Acupressure and Focused Concentration. He held his own Acupressure points around his face and back of his head. I guided him through a process. In an hour his allergies were gone, but before he believed it, he had to test it. The pine needles on his deck used to cause sneezing, but after his session, he could be around them without symptoms or problems. Here's what he sent to me after his session:
'I have had allergies my entire life. I was allergic to trees and grass. It was a big struggle for me when the allergy season hit. I tried everything from shots, pills etc...Nothing worked. I hired Kara over the phone (Acupressure) to see what she could do. After one session, my allergies are gone! It is amazing. I wish I knew about Kara years ago. Thank you Kara! You are the best!'
