Sinus and Allergies

Allergies got you down?

Allergies occur when the body's defense system—the immune system—is hypersensitive to a harmless substance, called an allergen, and treats this substance as if it were a harmful or foreign invader. Attempting to defend itself against the allergen—a substance like pollen, dust, mold, smoke, or pet dander (scales of skin)—the body produces an antibody (a type of protein), which results in symptoms like itchy, watery eyes, a runny or stuffy nose, scratchy throat, and sneezing. In more severe allergic reactions, rashes, hives, a drop in blood pressure, difficulty breathing or even death can occur.

How does chiropractic help with Sinus and Allergies?

Chiropractors can help your sinus and allergy problems by ensuring proper function of the nervous system. Mucous membranes are controlled by the brain, the brain sends signals from the nervous system to your mucous membranes.

A subluxation can cause interference between your brain and your mucous membrane. A spinal adjustment can correct a subluxation therefore enhancing the communication from your brain to your mucous membranes .

When I began training for the Tulsa Run I noticed an unusual pain in my right foot. After trying traditional treatments to relieve my foot pain with no success, I scheduled an appointment to meet with Dr. Klugh. After 6 visits of him performing adjustments, ultrasound, and utilizing a massage therapist I began noticing a significant difference. However, it wasn't until I was fitted for orthotics that the pain totally diminished. I continue to see Dr. Klugh to this day to maintain my progress. Thanks for all your help!

Well this particular testimony is very special to me, it deals with my son Tyler and his first adjustment at 14 hours old. After a long birth Tyler was placed into the Step Down Unit of the ICU where he was being monitored for his oxygen saturation and his heart rate. While still on 40% 0xygen Arrick checked and gently adjusted Tyler's spine, four hours later Tyler was completely off of Oxygen and his heart rate was normal. We were then able to take our sweet baby boy home and spend our first Thanksgiving with our new addition.

Dr. Arrick,

I just wanted to let you know that after getting adjusted, our baby girl went from a breech position to a normal position which allowed me to have the natural birth that we had planned on since the beginning. I have 2 other kids that were born in a hospital and we just wanted to try something different. Thank you for allowing us to experience birth the way it was suppose to be experienced.
