Allergies are often associated with seasonal changes, but for some, they’re a struggle all year. Environmental triggers like pollen, dust mites, pet dander and mold can keep your immune system in constant overdrive. Fortunately, Cryotherapy, Red Light Therapy, Infrared Sauna and IV Drips can offer natural, science-backed solutions to alleviate allergy symptoms and support overall wellness. Here's how each of these therapies can help manage allergies throughout the year.

Cryotherapy

Cryotherapy involves exposing the body to sub-zero temperatures for up to three minutes, which triggers several physiological responses that benefit allergy sufferers.

Reduces Histamine Production

Histamine is a key player in allergic reactions, causing symptoms like itching, swelling and mucus production. Cryotherapy has been shown to reduce the production of histamines, potentially decreasing the severity of allergic responses.

Stimulates Epinephrine Production

Cold exposure triggers the release of epinephrine, which acts as a natural antihistamine.  This helps open airways, reduce inflammation and mitigate allergic reactions, making it easier to breathe during flare-ups.

Decreases Inflammation

Cryotherapy reduces inflammation in the sinuses and respiratory system, providing relief from common symptoms such as nasal congestion, itchy eyes and sneezing.

Supports Gut Health

The health of your gut is closely linked to your immune system. Cryotherapy can support gut health, which is crucial since imbalances in gut flora can exacerbate gut issues.

Red Light Therapy

Red Light Therapy utilizes low-wavelength red and near-red light to penetrate the skin and tissues, activating various biological processes that may help manage allergy symptoms.

Reduces Mucus Production

Allergies often lead to an overproduction of mucus, leading to congestion and discomfort. Red Light Therapy may help regulate mucus production by reducing inflammation in the respiratory tract.

Alleviates Inflammation

Inflammation is a hallmark of allergic reactions. Red Light Therapy reduces systemic inflammation, providing reduced overall inflammation for itchy eyes, nasal congestion and throat irritation.

Improves Blood Circulation

Enhanced blood flow from Red Light Therapy helps the body flush out allergens more effectively, reducing swelling in allergy-affected areas and promoting faster recovery from flare-ups.

Infrared Sauna

Infrared Saunas use red and infrared light to heat the body, providing multiple health benefits, including allergy relief.  

Clears Nasal Congestion

The heat generated by Infrared Saunas loosens mucus in the nasal passages and lungs, making it easier to expel. This is especially beneficial for individuals with chronic nasal congestion due to allergies. It is, however, important to consult a healthcare provider or allergist before sauna use, as heat can exacerbate symptoms in certain cases by moving allergens deeper into the body.

Detoxifies the Body

Sweating induced by Infrared Saunas helps to flush out toxins and allergens. Reducing the toxic load on your body may decrease the severity of allergic reactions over time.

Reduces Inflammatory Response

Like Cryotherapy and Red Light Therapy, Infrared Saunas help lower systemic inflammation, easing allergy symptoms. Additionally, the heat also promotes relaxation, which may help lower stress—an important factor, as stress can worsen allergic reactions.

IV Drips

IV Drip Therapy is another powerful tool for managing allergies, especially when customized to your needs. It delivers nutrients directly into the bloodstream for fast, effective results.

Boosts Immune Function

IV Drips can include Vitamin C, Glutathione and B Complex vitamins to support immune function and reduce sensitivity to allergens.

Reduces Inflammation

High doses of Vitamin C delivered intravenously are known for their anti-inflammatory and antihistamine properties. This helps provide immediate relief from allergy symptoms like nasal congestion and swelling in some people.

Promotes Hydration

Allergies can lead to dehydration, particularly when symptoms involve mucus production. IV Drips rapidly hydrate the body, thinning mucus and helping flush out allergens more effectively.

Fortify Your Immunity

By integrating Cryotherapy, Red Light Therapy, Infrared Sauna and IV Drip Therapy, you can create a comprehensive approach to managing allergies throughout the year. These therapies work together to reduce histamine production, inflammation and mucus buildup while supporting immune function and detoxification. If you suffer from chronic allergies, incorporating these therapies along with other traditional medical treatments may alleviate symptoms and improve your quality of life.
