What is Allergy Therapy?
We use several methods to test for food intolerances – none of which use chemicals or invasive technology. All of our methods of allergy relief can safely be used alongside conventional medicine.
What to expect
First we talk to you. We ask you a wide range of questions about your lifestyle, diet, likes and dislikes, and medical history. Unlike many other forms of allergy treatment, we concentrate more on strengthening and supporting your system to cope with identified substances and the environment, rather than completely eliminating and depriving you of the foods you may need.
Who and what we treat
Digestive problems or lack of energy
You may be experiencing symptoms such as respiratory, digestive or skin problems. You may be constantly tired, or have joint or muscle pain or headaches. You may be suffering from hyperactivity, poor concentration, or lack of confidence.
We identify your key sensitivities, balance your nutritional intake, and work with you at restoring good health.
Safe and gentle, allergy testing is suitable for everyone, whether they are young or old.
Please note that if you have a serious health issue or concern, do also consult your GP as certain allergies can be life threatening.

Food allergy testing
Schmitt WH, Leisman G (December 1998). "Correlation of applied kinesiology muscle testing findings with serum immunoglobulin levels for food allergies". Int. J. Neurosci. 96 (3-4): 237–44. doi:10.3109/00207459808986471

[This] study showed a high degree of correlation between AK muscle testing for food allergies and antibodies for those foods. The AK procedure in this study involved stimulation of taste receptors followed by muscle testing for change in strength. The patient was suspected of being allergic to foods that disrupted muscle function. Blood drawn subsequently showed the presence of antibodies to the foods which were found to be allergenic through AK assessment.

Correlation of applied kinesiology muscle testing findings with serum immunologobulin levels for food allergies
The pilot study attempted to determine whether subjective muscle testing employed by applied kinesiology practitioners prospectively determine those individuals with specific hyperallergenic responses. Seventeen subjects were found positive on AK muscle testing screening procedures, indicating food hypersensitivity (allergy) reactions. Each subject showed muscle weakening (inhibition) reactions to oral provocative testing of one or two foods for a total of 21 positive food reactions. Tests for a hypersensitivity reaction of the serum were performed using both a radio-allergosorbent test (RAST) and immune complex test for IgE and IgG against all 21 of the foods that tested positive with AK muscle screening procedures. These serum tests confirmed 19 of the 21 food allergies (90.5%) suspected based on the AK screening procedures.

The MMT employed by chiropractors, physical therapists, and neurologists was shown to be a clinically useful tool, but its ultimate scientific validation and application requires testing that employs sophisticated research models in the areas of neurophysiology, biomechanics, RCTs, and statistical analysis.
Improvements after applied kinesiology treatment were reported for the following conditions: low back pain, thyroid orbitopathy, learning disabilities in children, somatic dyspnea (shortness of breath), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
