Weaken Allergy Symptoms

What is the Environmental Allergy Testing procedure like?

Immunotherapy helps your body adjust to allergens, reducing reactions over time. Our team crafts personalized plans tailored to your specific allergies, lifestyle, and goals. For those battling environmental allergies, treatments often involve allergy shots or sublingual tablets that gradually build tolerance. By working closely with you, we ensure that the approach not only fits into your daily routine but also offers lasting relief.

Sublingual Immunotherapy (SLIT)

Allergy drops are taken daily by placing them under your tongue. This allows allergens to be absorbed gradually into your bloodstream, helping your body build tolerance over time.

Subcutaneous Immunotherapy (SCIT)

Allergy shots are a treatment that can help you build long-term immunity to allergens. By receiving them weekly or monthly, your body gradually becomes accustomed to what triggers your allergies. Over time, this reduces symptoms and helps you feel better in your daily life.

Effective Treatment That Lasts

Immunotherapy offers a powerful long-term solution for environmental allergies by retraining your immune system. Over time, it reduces sneezing, itchy eyes, and congestion while improving your tolerance to allergens. This means you'll rely less on antihistamines and nasal sprays, allowing you to enjoy outdoor activities and daily life without constant interruptions from allergy symptoms. Unlike daily medications that merely mask these issues, immunotherapy targets allergic responses at their source, leading to a more sustainable improvement in your quality of life.
