Allergies

How Allergies Affect Our Bodies

Allergies are a major irritating factor in peoples acute and chronic health problems. I always screen all new patients for allergies. My premier mentor Dr. Alan Beardall said, “If you treat peoples allergies, the reason they go in for neck and headache pain 3x per week will go away.” He was so right!!! Allergies cause spasms in our upper neck, which he describes as “Tonic Neck Receptor Spasms”, and “Body Synchronal Systems”.

Essentially your allergies can cause varying joint pain leading to headaches and neck pain between your 1st and 3rd neck joints. According to Dr. Beardall, the first two neck vertebrae react to allergies like food and airborne and go into a joint spasm between them. This is due to allergies which can be food, airborne or others such as chemical and drug related. The 2nd and 3rd vertebrae go into a spasm based on what the rest of the body is doing, this is in response to multiple levels of problems the body is fighting against due to allergies.

I have seen this help so many patients resolve ongoing problems and I am thankful and happy to be able to incorporate Dr. Beardall’s research at Maximum Health Clinic to look for and resolve these allergy related problems.
