Research Confirms Acupuncture’s Effectiveness for Allergies

Clinical research by German scientists at Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin confirms the effectiveness of acupuncture for treating allergies and sinus disorders. In an eight-week clinical trial involving 414 patients with seasonal allergic rhinitis:

• Patients receiving real acupuncture reported fewer hayfever symptoms compared to control groups.

• Acupuncture patients required significantly less use of antihistamine medication.

• Quality of life scores were markedly better in the acupuncture group than in either the sham acupuncture or drug-only groups.

​

Participants receiving acupuncture used antihistamines for an average of 8.92 days, compared to 13.41 days in the sham group and 18.07 days in the drug-only group during the pollen season. Unlike other groups, the acupuncture group did not increase antihistamine use at the peak of the allergy season — a sign of sustained symptom relief.

Researchers concluded that “acupuncture treatment was more effective than symptomatic drug intervention” for managing seasonal allergic rhinitis.

How Acupuncture Helps with Hayfever and Sinusitis

Acupuncture for hayfever and sinusitis works by regulating the immune system, reducing inflammation, and improving sinus drainage. Patients often report:

• Reduced nasal congestion and sinus pressure

• Relief from sneezing, itchy eyes, and runny nose

• Decreased dependence on antihistamines and other allergy medications

• Improved overall respiratory health and quality of life

Acupuncture provides a drug-free alternative to long-term medication use and offers a natural solution for managing both acute and chronic sinus conditions.
