Allergies are a hypersensitive immune system's reactions to normal antigens in the environment. Allergens may be airborne, substances in food, or chemicals. While these allergens may normally be harmless, when someone's immune system is compromised, the body recognizes these as poison. The hypersensitive immune system tries to protect the body from these poisons but the immune system has become overloaded.
When this overloading happens, the organs that are responsible for eliminating waste become inflamed and become easily irritated when they come into contact with allergens on both the outside and inside of the body.
Allergies are an immune response to a foreign antigen that results in inflammation and organ dysfunction. Allergies can range from life threatening to annoying.
Because all body functions are controlled by the nervous system, any interference to the flow of nerve energy from the brain to the immune system can contribute to allergies. Instead of treating symptoms by taking medication for temporary relief, our doctors work to normalize the body's immune system with gentle spinal adjustments to restore the flow of nerve energy.
