ABOUT CONSTITUTIONAL MEDICINE
|
Most of what's written in this article is entirely suitable for a person to work through themselves but, especially if things are quite bad, or you just know that you need further help, then there may be a great deal of benefit to you to go to whatever lengths necessary to find a good herbalist to guide you on to a safe and strong treatment program. There's a short write-up to suggest how you might go about finding such a person here The following suggestions; the allergy tea and the various methods of 'cleaning' out the pollens etc. are good starting points that may well be all a person needs to do. However, nothing works for everyone, and if you do not find that these strategies make a significant or lasting difference then the next step may be to have a closer look at the general health of your immune system. Especially if the hay fever is getting worse from one year to the next, this may be the sign from your body that some deeper attention is needed into your diet or some other vital area of health. The important subject of immunity is discussed in practical depth here The first thing to start with, whether it be hay fever or sinus congestion, is at least daily or twice daily, drink a cup of 'allergy tea'. Ingredients in this tea help us to be less reactive to airborne irritants and, at the same time, to clear the sinus passageways.
The amounts shown above will make a small jar with enough tea that will be enough for dozens of doses. You can make a larger amount by simply increasing all the herbs by the same proportions e.g. two or three times the amount for each one.
Many people have said that just one cup a day stops them getting sick or needing anti-histamines however, it is safe and ok to use two or even three cups a day if the symptoms are quite bad.
The allergy tea helps a person be less reactive and sensitive to environmental allergens. You may also need to reduce exposure to those substances and, short of moving somewhere else, there are three methods that can help clean the affected areas
The whole concept of it no doubt sounds quite awful right up until a person does it whereupon they realise that it doesn't hurt, it's actually very easy to do, and it can be remarkably effective.
When symptoms include sore eyes, the practice of bathing the eye bathing with a combination of herbs called 'Eyebright formula' has often been seen to give much relief. This treatment is entirely safe and the process helps to wash away accumulating pollens, dust or other debris, more here
Constitutional health is an old and fascinating way of understanding our differences. There's a brief introduction here and a more detailed section on working out which constitution you are here
