Alternative Medicine Pediatrics

CHILDHOOD ALLERGIES

Our goal is provide safe, natural pediatric care – combining the best of Western medicine with naturopathic medicine principles. We seek to avoid drugs and surgery, unless necessary, and treat the root cause of your child's condition with natural medicine.

Allergies occur when the immune system is overactive and triggered by something that the body should normally ignore, such as dust, pollen, or dog dander.

In healthy children, the immune system should be exposed to all sorts of molecules in the environment and become “trained” to leave some alone and fight against others (such as infectious bacteria and viruses). An unhealthy immune system overreacts to benign molecules that are commonplace in the environment.

Naturopathic strategies to eliminate or reduce allergies focus on diets that reduce overall activation of the immune system and support via anti-inflammatory nutrients.

At ALETRIS, we address environemntal and food allergies to help your child achieve optimal health.
