More Environmentals

Owen was treated for dust, smoke and mosquitos on August 12, 2009. I know it sounds like a strange combination, but they were compatible to be treated together.

Now keep in mind you are supposed to avoid the treated allergens for 25 hours. Smoke is not an issue, we are not smokers and we don't plan on having any bonfires in the next day. Mosquitos can be a challenge, but we will just have to limit our outdoor time. Dust on the other hand......how does someone avoid dust? If anyone has an answer to this, please let me know, I would love to be able to avoid dust. Or maybe that's dusting.......actually any cleaning to do with dust would be great!

After asking Dr. Boggess about the avoidance period he said when the allergen is difficult to avoid, it can be just as effective to reinforce the accupressure points as much as possible during that time. So that is what we did.

Owen cleared the smoke and mosquito allergens but unfortunately he did not clear the dust allergen on the first time, so we retreated it.

Guess I won't be able to give him any housecleaning chores just yet!

In the Air We Breathe

It's amazing that in the air we breathe there are so many pollens, toxins, gases and other pollutants that have an adverse effect on so many people.

The environmental allergens that Owen needs to be treated for are pollen & grass on August 4th and dust, smoke & mosquitos on August 12th.

I'm not quite sure how someone can avoid dust for 25 hours, but we'll give it our best shot.
