Homeopathy for Hay Fever, Sneezing and Allergies
Spring is beautiful, but for many people it also means sneezing, itchy eyes, a blocked or runny nose, and feeling miserable every time the pollen count rises.
If you suffer from hay fever or seasonal allergies, homeopathy offers a gentle, natural way to support your body. Our Hay Fever Blend is designed to help with the common symptoms of allergies, while our specific allergen remedies aim to support the body to become less reactive over time.
If you tend to react every year to grass, pollen, dust, mould, animals or certain plants, the best results often come from using both approaches together.
What Symptoms Can the Hay Fever Blend Help With?
Our Hay Fever Blend is traditionally used to support:
Sneezing
Runny nose
Blocked nose
Itchy nose
Itchy, red or watering eyes
Irritation from pollen, dust or seasonal changes
Many people find it most helpful to keep the blend on hand and start taking it as soon as symptoms begin. The earlier you can take the remedy when symptoms begin, the better the results.
What Is In the Hay Fever Blend?
The Hay Fever Blend contains four carefully selected homeopathic remedies made from three plants and homeopathic histaminum. It contains Allium Cepa & Sabadilla which are traditionally used to support sneezing, watery eyes, a constantly runny nose; Euphrasia which is traditionally used to support itchy, red, watery, or burning gritty eyes; and Histaminum which is traditionally used to support and overly reactive histamine response in the body.
How To Use the Hay Fever Blend
For most people, the Hay Fever Blend can be used:
At the first sign of symptoms, repeated every 5-15mins (for up to 6 doses) as needed until symptoms begin to resolve. Once symptoms have settled, it can be taken every few hours if needed.
Hayfever blend supports symptomatic relief, but to reduce overall reactivity, it is recommended to use Hayfever Blend alongside an allergy protocol.
Allergy Protocols
Homeopathic allergy protocols are designed and traditionally used to reduce reactivity to specific triggers like pollen, dust, animal fur, mould and more.
Many people find the best approach is:
Use the Hay Fever Blend when symptoms arise
Use the matching allergen remedy regularly throughout allergy season
Continue both if needed during times of heavy exposure
As a general guide, many homeopaths recommend using the specific allergen remedy:
once daily for 7 days before your usual allergy season begins,
then continuing once weekly throughout the allergy season.
Do You Need Mould Allergy Support?
If your allergies never seem to improve, are present all year round, or are worse in damp environments, mould may be playing a role.
Common clues include:
Symptoms worse in old or damp houses
Reactions in bathrooms, wardrobes or after rain
Hay fever symptoms that continue outside of spring
A history of visible mould, water damage or musty smells in the home
In these cases, it may be worth considering our Mould Allergy Support remedy alongside the Hay Fever Blend.
Other Ways To Reduce Allergy Symptoms Naturally
Alongside homeopathic support, many people also notice an improvement when they:
Sleep with an air purifier in the bedroom
Keep windows closed on very high pollen days
Shower and change clothes after being outdoors
Wash bedding regularly during spring
Reduce exposure to known triggers where possible
Which Remedy Should I Choose?
Mainly sneezing, runny nose and itchy eyes: choose the Hay Fever Blend
If you know your trigger is grass, trees, dust, mould or animals: order the matching allergen remedy alongside Hayfever Blend
