The AAT treatment can only address conditions caused by inappropriate reactions to harmless substances or stimuli. If the condition involves pathogens, (bacteria, viruses or parasites) the treatment will not be able to affect such cases.
AAT cannot treat lactose intolerance. If the symptoms are related to a sensitivity to milk or other dairy products, the treatment can be very effective. However, lactose intolerance in not an allergy, it is the inability to digest certain amounts of lactose, the major sugar found in milk. The condition is caused by a deficiency of the enzyme lactase, which is produced by the cells of the lining in the small intestine. Lactose intolerance is often confused with dairy allergies because the symptoms are similar, yet they are unrelated. However, the two conditions can occur together and in such cases, the AAT treatment can offer partial benefit.
While AAT can treat the many symptoms associated with allergies or sensitivities, some cases do not respond to the treatment.
The treatment may also be complicated by multiple symptoms, some of which may not be the result of an allergy. In addition, some sufferers have more than one substance contributing to one specific allergy symptom. This compounds the challenge in identifying the correct substance responsible for the reaction.
All AAT practitioners are fully credentialed health care professionals, including medical doctors, RNs, Osteopaths, acupuncturists, naturopaths, chiropractors and holistic veterinarians.
AAT does not treat cases involving anaphylaxis or life threatening symptoms.
For over fifteen years, AAT patients have consistently reported long-term results. However, AAT cannot guarantee that symptoms won’t recur or that new allergies or sensitivities will not develop in the future.
Many cases respond within the first few treatments. However, each case is different and some patients require additional treatment.
Bloating, cramping, reflux, heartburn, gas, diarrhea, nausea, runny nose, sneezing, congestion, post-nasal drip, itchy watery eyes, coughs, wheezing, shortness of breath, red, scaly or itchy rashes, blisters with oozing and crusting, hives, itchy skin, hyperactivity, mood swings, headaches, fatigue, tiredness, chemical sensitivities, reactions to the sun, any negative reaction to harmless substances.
No. All ages may be treated, including infants.
No, patients do not need to stop taking medication that has been prescribed by a medical doctor without his/her authorization. You may continue taking over the counter medication to control current symptoms, as this will not affect the treatment.
AAT does not offer allergy testing. Patients are encouraged to bring in allergy tests from their physicians.
No. A food intolerance is different from an allergy or sensitivity in that there may be an enzyme deficiency, which inhibits the body from properly digesting the substance. Such cases are not affected by the treatment.
No. We do not treat conditions involving anaphylactic reactions. However, patients with an anaphylactic reaction may be treated for other sensitivities that are not life threatening.
Patients are advised to seek the most effective treatment for their case. Conventional treatment involves avoidance of the allergen, medications to reduce the symptoms of the allergic reaction or injections to desensitize the patient to the allergen.
Drugs such as antihistamines may relieve symptoms of the allergy. Many over-the-counter and prescribed medications can be very effective and offer significant relief.
Desensitizing the patient to the allergen involves a series of injections over a long-term period.
Avoiding substances that cause allergic reactions may be impossible for many sufferers, as is the case with allergies to ubiquitous foods or common ingredients in skin care products. For people with multiple allergies/sensitivities, particularly to food, avoidance can have a considerable impact on the patient's quality of life.
Advanced Allergy Therapeutics offers effective relief from symptoms associated with allergies and sensitivities without the need for avoidance or the use of herbal or homeopathic remedies or special diets.
Disclaimer: AAT does not treat the symptoms of allergies or sensitivities involving life threatening reactions or anaphylaxis. Therefore strict avoidance is always advised.
