At Integrative Family Acupuncture, we specialize in innovative solutions for complex health challenges, focusing on Alpha-Gal Allergy and Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS). Our use of Soliman Auricular Allergy Treatment (SAAT) offers hope to those seeking long-term relief from these difficult conditions.
What is Alpha-Gal Allergy?
Alpha-Gal Allergy, also known as Alpha-Gal Syndrome, is a unique food allergy triggered primarily by tick bites. This condition causes an allergic reaction to a carbohydrate molecule called galactose-alpha-1,3-galactose (alpha-gal), which is found in most mammalian meats and products. This allergy significantly impacts an individual’s lifestyle, requiring strict dietary changes and constant vigilance to avoid potential triggers.
Alpha-Gal Allergy Symptoms
- Hives and itching
- Swelling of lips, face, or eyelids
- Gastrointestinal distress
- Difficulty breathing
- In severe cases, anaphylaxis
Understanding MCAS
Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) involves repeated episodes of symptoms caused by overactive mast cells, which release too many chemicals into the body.
This complex disorder can affect multiple systems and lead to unpredictable and often debilitating symptoms that affect daily activities.
Common symptoms of MCAS include
Skin reactions like hives and flushing
Gastrointestinal issues
Respiratory problems
Cardiovascular symptoms
Neurological manifestations
Introducing Soliman Auricular Allergy Treatment (SAAT)
Soliman Auricular Allergy Treatment (SAAT) is a specialized acupuncture technique that targets the body’s immune response to allergens, helping to reprogram the body’s tendency to react negatively. Developed by Dr. Nader Soliman, SAAT uses precision auricular acupuncture to retrain the immune system and reduce allergy symptoms.
Many patients experience permanent relief from allergic reactions after one treatment session, providing a long-term solution to managing complex allergies. SAAT is noninvasive and does not rely on medications, making it ideal for those seeking an alternative, holistic approach.
A Brief Overview of SAAT Treatments
The Soliman Auricular Allergy Treatment (SAAT) process begins by identifying specific points in the ear that are linked to your unique allergic response. Once these auricular points are located, a single fine needle is inserted into the ear and remains in place for a few weeks. During this time, the needle works to retrain the immune system, reducing its overreaction to allergens, often leading to long-term relief after just one treatment session.
How Does SAAT Work?
SAAT (Soliman Auricular Allergy Treatment) is an innovative, highly targeted approach to treating allergies, including Alpha-Gal Allergy and MCAS. The treatment is designed to reprogram the immune system to stop reacting to specific allergens, providing lasting relief. Here’s a more detailed look at the process:
Precise Identification of Auricular Points
Each person’s allergic response is unique. SAAT begins with identifying the precise auricular points in the ear that correspond to your particular allergy.
These points are found through an in-depth evaluation of your symptoms and immune system response. The goal is to find where the body can be influenced to stop overreacting to allergens.
Single Needle Treatment
After the auricular points are located, a single, ultra-fine acupuncture needle is inserted into the ear. This needle is carefully placed at the identified point and remains in the ear for about three to four weeks, stimulating the body continuously.
Unlike other treatments, SAAT requires only one treatment per allergen, making it a convenient and effective option for those seeking long-term relief.
Reprogramming the Immune System
The primary goal of SAAT is to address the body's tendency to overreact to allergens. Over the course of a few weeks, the needle works to retrain the immune system to reduce or eliminate the allergic response. This helps SAAT prevent allergic reactions from occurring rather than just masking the symptoms.
This results in long-term relief from allergies, including those triggered by Alpha-Gal.
Lasting Results with Minimal Follow-Up
Many patients experience permanent relief from their allergic symptoms after just one treatment session. In cases where symptoms persist, follow-up treatments may be required, but these are minimal.
This makes SAAT a low-maintenance solution for allergy sufferers, providing peace of mind and freedom from constant allergy management.
Benefits of SAAT for Alpha-Gal Allergy and MCAS
