WHY YOU SHOULD BE CONCERNED ABOUT ALLERGIES

You should be concerned about allergies because you probably have them.  Most people do not think that they have allergies (also known by the broader term hypersensitivities),  but unfortunately, most people do have hypersensitivities  to foods or environmental substances such as dust, mold or chemicals.   What is an allergy?  It is a disorder of the immune system; an overreaction to a harmless substance.  The reaction not the allergen causes some degree of harm to the body.  An allergy is analogous  to a software bug, with the allergy (the bug) causing the body (the hardware) to malfunction.   Some cases are more significant than others but all instances of allergies assault health and diminish vitality.  Hypersensitivities are health blocks as these unnecessary reaction waste the bodies immune resources.

When allergies are avoided or corrected, the patient usually feels much more energetic.  It is amazing that complaints that seem unrelated to allergies often resolve when the allergy is corrected.  This is  because the patient's vital force has increased, a more balanced state has been achieved, and the body has naturally worked out the health issue. 

Some of the many symptoms that hypersensitivities cause include a decrease in energy ranging from a slight energetic loss to chronic fatigue, obesity, hives, eczema, itchy skin, red & itchy eyes (allergic conjunctivitis), coughing, congestion, rhinorrhea (runny nose), sneezing, wheezing, post nasal drip, hoarseness,  itchy throat or roof of the mouth, anaphylaxis (severe airway constriction), asthma, hypertension, edema, puffy and or darkness below the eyes, earaches, abdominal cramping, stomach aches, nausea, vomiting, bloating, irritable bowel, diarrhea, constipation, headaches including migraines, difficult concentration, attention deficit, hyperactivity, confusion, dizziness, poor memory, poor cognitive performance, muscle cramping, fibromyalgia, and arthritis.

To diagnose allergies, Dr. Armentano typically uses bio-energetic test methods (muscle testing).  Another  test method that is less frequently used is the ALCAT blood test which measures white blood cell reactivity to possible allergens.   Dr. Armentano treats allergies with a painless European energetic therapy called bioresonance.  Many patients with pet, environmental, and food allergies have been reported lasting elimination of allergy symptoms after treatment.


Dr. Armentano uses safe and effective natural therapies without the use of drugs and surgery.  Patients can expect to have an evaluation of their health blocks and stresses, including allergy and hypersensitivity testing.  Some examples of modalities used are herbal medicine, nutritional advice, homeopathy, and other bioenergetic therapies.   This approach allows the body to heal itself naturally from  disease, illness, pain, and stress resulting in a higher state of health and wellness.  Dr. Armentano treats all health conditions in all age groups.  If you would like to arrange for an office consultation to discuss your specific health concerns, please call Dr. Armentano at 203-637-8464 or email him at drarmentano@att.net.
