Non-Invasive Sensitivity Treatment Helps Patients Reduce Medication and Expand Food Options

Hi, I'm Dr. Alyse Snyder. I am a doctor of acupuncture and Chinese medicine. I have been an acupuncturist and herbalist for about 20 years and I have been an AAT practitioner for 10, and what inspired me to bring AAT into my own practice was that I had lived in four different states prior to moving to Austin, Texas and never had any allergies in my entire life and about a year and a half after moving here I was hit with just some really crazy like fatigue and headaches just all these like joint pain symptoms, things that aren't actually traditional allergy symptoms and I went to a lot of different places to try to get answers and I really didn't get any until somebody told me about a man who was doing AAT at the time. He was a chiropractor and they were like I'm not really sure exactly what it is but you should go try it because it changed my life. Some things that I really love I work with children and adults, and some things that I just feel like have been phenomenal changes are people that have come to see that were on inhalers, different asthma sort of medications especially children it's hard when you don't want to see them when they can't breathe and they're having these allergy symptoms and you don't really want to just throw Claritin and Zyrtec and all the things at them either their whole life and so using the AAT method which is non invasive, no needles, no shots, no drops, no supplements but just using the ArthroStim to activate the sympathetic nervous system, to help with the sensitivities, to repattern the body. I've had people come in with really crazy runny noses, these sort of breathing things, exercise induced asthmas and stemming from a lot of molds and just dust and dust mites and different pollens and trees and so doing that work with them has gotten them either reduced medication, off medications I mean obviously always in combination with their western doctor but able to do like really beautiful things, I've treated people with food sensitivities where they came to see me, they were down to five foods meaning five foods total all day and so a salad maybe would just be arugula and three other things, four other things and a one person in particular I'm thinking of I worked with for five years and she's now up to 70 foods that she can eat and so we've just been repatterning her system for all these sensitivities to these foods that she had it's been really wonderful to see but I have a lot of patients like that, I also have patients that see me for chemical sensitivities, fragrances, different for example oils, makeups, The food stuff also red dyes like say their kid is eating like and M&M'S and having some kind of response to the dye, the red or the blue dye. While in theory we don't always want children to eat these things it is also just like a fun part of life sometimes you want to go to a movie and have some and M&M's so that's been nice that they haven't had the same reaction like that they had before which was maybe even rashes, they would have hives, have stomach aches, I do a lot of work with dairy so people that have dairy sensitivities, gluten sensitivities again these are not like if you're lactose intolerant or if you have celiac the system doesn't give your body the substance to actually break down lactose or to break down the gluten so I want to be clear about that but if you are just sensitive to it meaning it causes you to have a stomachache or perhaps loose stools or makes you feel kind of sick when you have it but overall you're not having an immense reaction then it's really good to help utilize this system to help with those things. I would love to say AAT has changed my life personally. So for my health, my family's life I've seen it literally change the lives of so many of my patients where they thank me for being able to eat a certain thing, for being able to go onto the greenbelt and go hiking, for being able to just like get back to some sort of normalcy in their life and without having to use medications that they didn't maybe want to use. I think it's really important that we all have this knowledge that we come together and we get to share it on a platform that makes it so that the world can now know more about it and be able to utilize it.
