Alpha-Gal Treatment

About the Appointment

Acupuncture is sometimes used as a complementary treatment for managing alpha-gal syndrome, an allergic reaction to mammalian meat caused by tick bites. By targeting specific acupuncture points, the therapy aims to help balance the immune system and reduce inflammation, potentially alleviating symptoms like hives, gastrointestinal issues, and fatigue. While acupuncture cannot cure alpha-gal syndrome, it may help improve overall immune function and support the body’s response to triggers. Many individuals seek acupuncture to help manage the chronic symptoms associated with this condition, potentially providing relief and improving their quality of life.
