Auricular Acupuncture Treatments

Allergic responses develop from an overly sensitive, “malfunctioning” immune system. While allergy shots and medications address allergies by suppressing the immune response, SAAT works to address the immune system’s negative response to an allergen. SAAT essentially reprograms your immune system to stop overreacting to allergens. If the body has the ability and power to develop the overactive immune response, it has the ability to reverse it as well. 

Soliman’s Auricular Allergy Treatment by Dr. Nader Soliman, a pioneer in auricular acupuncture, who completed years of clinical study of thousands of allergy sufferers. Through his refined method of SAAT, individuals now experience severe reduction or elimination of allergy symptoms. Most people with mild or moderate allergic reactions benefit tremendously from his technique. Patients with severe anaphylactic reactions to substances may be treated with SAAT, but should continue to avoid exposure if possible. The SAAT treatment may help to minimize symptoms of accidental exposure to substances. 

People seek relief using SAAT for 

• Alpha Gal 
• Gastrointestinal distress from particular food
• Swelling/itchy mouth from particular food consumption
• Itchy/watery eyes, sneezing
• Runny nose
• Chest tightness and coughing when exposed to a particular animal, (especially dog or cat)
• Contact dermatological reactions (latex, poison ivy, etc.)
• We treat allergies in two basic ways

  • If you’ve already identified your allergen via testing (skin prick or blood) or other method, you should indicate that in your initial phone call with our clinic. We will order a homeopathic vial with the particular energetic signature (frequency) of your particular allergens(s) if we have yet to treat it at our clinic. When you are in the office we will do a series of tests (called applied kinesiology) to determine your sensitivity to the allergen.
  • If you aren’t sure of your allergen we will spend time at the office to determine what it is exactly your immune system seems to be responding to. In this case, we may be able to perform the treatment on the same day as the testing, but if you do not have the precise homeopathic solution in stock at the clinic, we will need to order and have you return to complete the process at no additional charge.
  • After we’ve determined your sensitivity, we find an extremely precise location for needle treatment of that particular allergen for YOUR body. This location is identified by finding the most electrically conductive location in your ear using a specialized voltmeter.

The procedure

  • A single 3 mm specialized ear acupuncture needle is inserted for each allergen. After it is inserted, the needle is covered by a small piece of medical adhesive tape, and worn for 21 – 28 days then removed at our clinic. 1 – 4 specific allergens may be addressed per treatment. 
  • Sessions will last from 30 minutes to 1 hour depending on your needs. Initial intake and health discussion, as well as SAAT treatment. Follow treatments will be scheduled 3 – 4 weeks from initial appointment 

Cost: $320 for initial assessment and treatment with up to 4 needles

*There may be additional costs for homeopathic sprays that reinforce the treatment
