FAQS

Allergen immunotherapy is a form of treatment aimed at decreasing your sensitivity to substances called allergens. There are two types of allergy immunotherapy available: sublingual drops, which can be administered at home, and traditional allergy injections, administered in your doctors’ office. Allergen immunotherapy involves increasing, over time, the amounts of an allergen to which the patient is allergic to. Immunotherapy has been shown to prevent the development of new allergies and, in children, prevent the progression of an allergic disease from allergic rhinitis to asthma. Allergen immunotherapy can lead to the long lasting relief of allergy symptoms after treatment has stopped.

Allergen immunotherapy works like a vaccine. Your body responds to the sub-lingual amounts of a particular allergen, given in gradually increasing doses, by developing an immunity or tolerance to the allergen(s). As a result of these immune changes, immunotherapy can lead to decreased, minimal or no allergy symptoms when you are exposed to the allergen(s).

Our process for treating allergies is self pay, outside of insurance. This is intentional in order to provide you treatment to all of your allergens, not just 3-5 traditionally covered through shots or treatments in a doctor’s office. We believe by providing you full coverage, you will feel better and have relief faster than traditional allergy treatments provide.
