Advanced Allergy Therapeutics (AAT) offers a unique and highly effective approach in
treating the many symptoms associated with allergies and sensitivities. AAT is a
precision-based therapy that treats the organ systems involved in an overreaction. AAT
does not treat the immune system; instead, the therapy focuses on inappropriate
reactions to a harmless substance in relation to the organs systems to produce rapid,
long-term results for the relief of associated symptoms. AAT merges 21st century
science with (3,000-year-old traditional acupuncture) (modern chiropractic) principles in
offering an effective alternative in the treatment of symptoms associated with allergies
and sensitivities.

UNDERSTANDING ALLERGIES AND SENSITIVITIES
Allergies and sensitivities are caused by an inappropriate reaction to harmless
substances.
The word “allergy” comes from the Greek allos, meaning “other”. It was
first used in 1906 to refer to an "altered reaction" in the body's immune
system.
A “true allergy” is a reaction triggered by the immune system, however there are a vast
number of symptoms or conditions caused by sensitivities that may or may not involve
the immune system. With reactions involving food, a large percentage of the population
believe they have allergies, yet fewer than 2% actually have true allergies. In fact, many
suffer from undiagnosed food sensitivities or intolerances. The majority of patients who
seek the AAT treatment do not have true allergies; their symptoms are likely to be caused
by sensitivities with no immune involvement. Since there are few options for the
treatment of sensitivities, other than avoidance, AAT provides a highly effective
alternative. Symptoms caused by true allergies, however, also respond well to the
treatment as the organs systems involved in the reaction are also addressed.
The use of the word “allergy” has become a generic term used by the
public to describe allergies, sensitivities and intolerances.
WHAT IS AAT?
Advanced Allergy Therapeutics (AAT) is a clinically proven treatment that is highly
effective in relieving the many symptoms associated with allergies and sensitivities. It is a
therapeutic approach that was developed from over 16 years of clinical research. The
AAT treatment does not rely on the use of medications, herbal remedies or supplements.
The treatment is safe, painless and available to all ages including infants.
Advanced Allergy Therapeutics works directly with the relationship between the major
organ systems and inappropriate reactions to harmless substances. While the immune
system is responsible for initiating an immune reaction in the case of true allergies, it is
the health and state of the organ systems that often determines the type of symptoms
that may arise. With both sensitivities and allergies, symptoms typically stem from the
organ system affected. For example, one patient may have a reaction to soybean by
getting rashes while another patient may react with sinus congestion, heartburn or
Irritable Bowel Syndrome. The symptoms in each of these cases represent a different
organ system involved. By treating the organ system(s) involved in a reaction, the body is
able to respond more appropriately.
During treatment, gentle pressure is used on points that correspond with the organ
systems involved in a reaction. The degree of stress on the organ systems caused by an
allergen or offending agent, is proportional to the degree of the negative reaction. While
the stimulation is applied, a subtle representation of the offending substance is
introduced to the surface of the skin. The stimulation reduces the stress on the effected
organ system, allowing for a more appropriate response.
All holistic fields of medicine are aligned in the approach to treat the whole body. They
share the understanding that health conditions may develop as a result of interference in
proper functioning caused by various forms of stress or other factors. Reducing the
stress or interference allows for optimal health. When the specific organ system is
supported and stress is reduced, the whole body is able to respond more appropriately.
AAT does not diagnose allergies, sensitivities or intolerances.
AAT does not test for allergies or sensitivities. The AAT system simply assesses what may be causing a
stress to the body.
AAT does not cure allergies, nor does the therapy treat the immune system. AAT is a highly effective
treatment that provides long-term relief from symptoms associated with allergies or sensitivities.
AAT does not treat cases of anaphylaxis or life threatening symptoms. Strict avoidance is always advised
in these cases.
SYMPTOMS TREATED
A sensitivity or inappropriate reaction may cause symptoms from any
organ system in the body. Some systems are prone to reacting to
certain families of allergies or substances, such as the respiratory
system reacting to pollen. However, a substance may affect any organ
system, which could cause a multitude of symptoms varying from case
to case. For example, a reaction to wheat may cause hives in one
person, digestive issues in another, fatigue, wheezing or Acid Reflux all in
different patients. AAT addresses the specific organ systems affected by
the allergen or offending substance.
Digestive System
Symptoms include reflux, heartburn, abdominal and intestinal pain,
cramping, gas, bloating, nausea, diarrhea and vomiting. Primarily
caused by reactions to food or other ingestants.
Respiratory System
Symptoms include sneezing, congestion, runny nose, wheezing,
shortness of breath, coughs, postnasal drip, skin conditions, rashes and
itchy, watery eyes. Reactions may be associated with pollens, dust,
food, chemicals and animals (including dog and cat dander and bird
feathers), air-borne substances and contactants.
Dermatological
Symptoms may include red, itchy, or scaly skin rashes, blisters with
oozing and crusting, dry leathery patches or hives. The main cause of
dermatological reactions can be a reaction to food but can also be
caused by plants, contactants and chemicals.
Headaches and Migraines
May be caused by reactions to food such as chocolate and caffeine,
airborne irritants such as pollens and chemicals including household
cleaners, perfumes and vehicle fumes.
Tiredness and Fatigue
Many reactions result in lethargy and feelings of fatigue. Tiredness can
also occur at certain times of the day, such as in the afternoon after
eating.
Multiple Systems
Symptoms may affect multiple systems in the body, resulting in
headaches, irritability, hyperactivity, mood swings, fatigue, tachycardia, or
inflammation.
General
Chemicals - household cleaners, perfumes, building materials, washing
detergent, pesticides
Occupational sensitivities such as latex or building materials such as
paints, glues, carpets, woods or varnishes
Animals
Heat, cold and humidity/dampness
Symptoms associated with an allergy or sensitivity can contribute to
common conditions such as: asthma, Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS),
Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) and Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity
Disorder (ADHD). However not all cases involve allergies or sensitivities.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is primarily caused by sensitivities and
affects approximately 15% of the population. Common symptoms
include diarrhea, constipation, and bloating and abdominal pain.
Skin conditions, such as eczema, dermatitis and hives are commonly
associated with the symptoms of an allergy or sensitivity.
PLEASE BE ADVISED
AAT cannot guarantee any results. While AAT may be highly effective in
the relief of many symptoms associated with allergies or sensitivities,
some cases do not respond.
AAT does not treat cases of anaphylaxis or life threatening symptoms.
Strict avoidance is always advised.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How soon will I see results?
Many cases respond quickly to the treatment and achieve long-term results within the
first few treatments. However, each case is different and some patients require additional
treatment.
What are the most common symptoms addressed in the clinic?
Bloating, cramping, reflux, heartburn, gas, diarrhea, nausea, runny nose, sneezing,
congestion, post-nasal drip, itchy watery eyes, coughs, wheezing, shortness of breath,
red, scaly or itchy rashes, blisters with oozing and crusting, dry leathery skin areas,
hives, itchy skin, hyperactivity, mood swings, headaches, fatigue, tiredness, chemical
sensitivities, reactions to the sun, any negative reaction to harmless substances.
How many sessions are needed?
The number of sessions required depends on the number of items causing a
reaction. For example, a patient who reacts to five families of substances (dairy, wheat,
corn, animal dander and pollen) may require between 5 to 12 sessions to relieve the
symptoms or resolve a condition.
Is there an age restriction for the treatments?
No. All ages may be treated, including infants.
How long do I have to wait before I can have contact with the items that were addressed in my session?
Following a session, a patient should avoid the substance that was treated for 2 hours, if
possible. Depending on the item addressed, avoidance is not always possible. It is
recommended that the patient not have excessive contact with the item until the following
day.
Can I have more than one treatment in a day?
Yes. Two treatments can be completed in one day. However, there must be at least 2
hours between sessions.
How long are the sessions?
The Initial Session takes approximately30 minutes and includes an assessment and one
treatment. Follow-Up Sessions take 15 minutes and include one treatment.
Do you take health insurance for the treatments?
No. We do not take health insurance.
Do I need to do anything before my appointment?
Patients should arrive 10-15 minutes prior to the Initial Session to complete the
necessary forms.
Please do not smoke or wear perfume or fragrances prior to coming in to the clinic. This
is a courtesy to other patients who may be sensitive to those substances.
Please bring any allergy tests from medical doctors to the Initial Session.
Prescription or over-the-counter medications will not affect the treatment.
Patients who have other therapies (massage, chiropractic, acupuncture, etc) scheduled
on the same day as the AAT treatment should schedule those therapies PRIOR to the
AAT treatment, if possible.
If experiencing an acute stage of illness including an elevated temperature, the patient
should contact the clinic to reschedule the appointment.
Foundation Chiropractic DOES NOT treat anaphylaxis or any life-threatening
symptoms. Strict avoidance is always advised.
Do I need to stop taking any of my medications before the treatment?
No, patients do not need to stop taking medication that has been prescribed by a medical
doctor without his/her authorization. You may continue taking over the counter medication
to control current symptoms, as this will not affect the treatment.
Are any traditional medical allergy tests offered in the clinic?
We do not offer any conventional allergy testing. Patients are encouraged to bring in
allergy tests from their physicians.
Are there any guarantees that my symptoms will be relieved?
Unfortunately, we can offer no guarantees; however, the majority of our patients
respond favorably to the AAT treatment on a long-term basis. We cannot guarantee that
new symptoms will not develop in the future.
.
Can a food intolerance be treated?
No. A food intolerance is different from an allergy or sensitivity in that there may be an
enzyme deficiency, which inhibits the body from properly digesting the substance. Such
cases are not affected by the treatment.
Can you treat for anaphylactic symptoms?
No. We do not treat conditions involving anaphylactic reactions. However, patients with
an anaphylactic reaction may be treated for other sensitivities that are not life threatening.
