Acupuncture for Allergies & Low Energy

Allergies stem from the immune system’s exaggerated response to harmless substances like pollen or pet dander. Recent studies indicate that acupuncture, an ancient Chinese practice traditionally utilized for pain relief and stress reduction, may also be beneficial in alleviating seasonal allergies.

Acupuncture is a natural approach. Unlike antihistamines and decongestants that rely on chemical substances, acupuncture is a holistic therapy that does not involve standard medications. Over-the-counter remedies may sometimes lead to side effects such as drowsiness and dry mouth. Instead, acupuncture harnesses the body’s natural energy sources to promote healing and relief. By reducing inflammation and enhancing circulation without introducing foreign substances into your system, acupuncture proves highly effective in alleviating allergy symptoms.

Acupuncture for Allergy Relief

It enhances immunity: Allergies often arise when the immune system is compromised or weakened. Through the stimulation of specific points on the body with needles, acupuncture strengthens immunity and reduces the body’s sensitivity to allergens like pollen or pet dander. This can result in a decrease in overall allergy symptoms over time.

It alleviates stress: Surprisingly, stress significantly impacts the onset of allergy symptoms. When we are anxious, our bodies become more susceptible to environmental triggers such as dust mites and mold spores. By helping to alleviate stress levels, acupuncture ultimately reduces the likelihood of severe reactions when exposed to environmental allergens.

It improves breathing: As previously mentioned, acupuncture reduces inflammation, enhances circulation, and releases endorphins throughout the body. This leads to a reduction in inflammation of the nasal passages and other systems, providing optimal relief from congestion, sinus pressure, throat irritation, and itchy, watery eyes.

Acupuncture for Low Energy

Given the hectic pace of modern life, it is not uncommon for individuals to feel constantly exhausted and worn out. Stress and insufficient sleep can quickly lead to fatigue in many people. When an individual experiences persistent fatigue to the extent that they never feel refreshed and struggle to perform daily tasks, it poses a significant health risk that requires attention.
The health benefits of acupuncture extend beyond promoting restful sleep and relaxation. It can also help enhance your energy levels for carrying out various tasks throughout the day. Increased energy is something that we can all benefit from. After all, who doesn’t aspire to accomplish more and be more productive?

Acupuncture Can Make You Feel Energized

Chronic fatigue often goes unnoticed until it becomes a significant issue, and conventional medicine offers limited solutions to combat its draining effects. While doctors may provide vitamin B12 shots and other supplements to address the problem, acupuncture can be valuable. Waiting until your energy levels are severely depleted is unnecessary before seeking assistance.
Regular acupuncture sessions can boost your energy levels, making you more productive and active throughout the day.

I'm grateful to have Dr. Heschmeyer as one of my trusted health care practitioners. Her experience, knowledge and compassion have benefited me and members of my family. She listens intently and always selects the appropriate modality or combination of treatments, whether treating injury, illness, or energy imbalance. I highly recommend Mariryan and strongly recommend exploring the services she provides at Art of Acupuncture.

I’ve been seeing Dr Heschmeyer for over ten years for various things including vertigo, hormonal fluctuations, aches and pains and most recently a very painful shoulder injury that had me scared. Her knowledge of the human body and using different techniques, not just needles, had me working again within 24 hours. You don’t have to have a specific issue to go see her, just getting back to balance in this hectic world is helpful. I highly recommend her for a better quality of life. Also, Jenny at the front desk is amazing too!

I’ve been personally seeing Dr. Heschmeyer for 3-4 months. From the moment you walk in, it’s the pleasant and friendly welcome from Jenny at the front desk. Each appointment I’ve had thus far has been amazing. Dr. H takes her time to truly listen to what my body is experiencing and struggling with. She goes above and beyond to make sure I feel confident in our treatment plan as well as helping me better understand other ways to benefit what we are striving for. She is so educated in nutrition and actually takes the time to make sure what she’s doing is going to help resolve the problem. I’ve never had a doctor actually personally care for my health as I feel she does. I can’t wait to continue my journey with Dr. Heschmeyer and her team. I highly recommend this office!

Many years ago I was diagnosed with Trigeminal Neuralgia. In Jan, 2020, I had gamma knife surgery for the trigeminal neuralgia and did not get much relief. In July 2022 the symptoms returned full blown, maybe worse than ever before. The neurologist told me I have SUNCT a type of headache that has "no known cause and no known cure". He offered me an anticonvulsant "that may or may not help". I have tried anticonvulsants in the past and the side effects were much worse than the benefits so I decided to do more research. There is not much information about SUNCT.I started researching all kinds of alternative therapies. Acupuncture has been known for some time to help with Trigeminal Neuralgias so I focused on offices in the Venice, Sarasota, and Port Charlotte area. I was impressed with the credentials of Dr. Mariryan Heschmeyer D.O.M., A.P. On the first phone conversation I was able to get an appointment fairly quickly. On my first visit Dr. Heschmeyer assured me she has treated SUNCT successfully and set up a plan of care. I had significant relief that day and then on the second day she gave me multiple injections in my face of the drug Sarapin. I had treatments once a week and on the fourth visit I was pain free.Sarapin is approved by the FDA. I am so thankful for Dr. Heschmeyer"s skill and knowledge of this disease SUNCT. I will continue to see her once a month as a maintenance therapy but I remain pain free. I recommend that everyone with the SUNCT diagnosis should see Dr. Heschmeyer. Don't be afraid of the Sarapin injections in your face, its like a kitten walking on your face compared to the trigeminal pain. The office staff is very helpful and very compassionate, its easy to access and the atmosphere is very comforting. The experience is stress free and the results are miraculous.
