MCAS Can Make Everyday Life Feel Unpredictable.
SAAT offers targeted support for MCAS, helping to reduce reactivity and improve quality of life.
Soliman Auricular Allergy Treatment (SAAT) is a specialized auricular approach used to treat MCAS. Treatment can focus on MCAS itself rather than requiring every individual food or environmental trigger to be treated separately.
Wildflower Acupuncture is one of only five SAAT-certified practitioners in Colorado, serving the Front Range.
Living With MCAS Can Be Unpredictable
MCAS can affect multiple systems in the body, and symptoms can look very different from person to person. Reactions may be triggered by foods, environmental exposures, temperature changes, stress, fragrances, products, or seemingly nothing at all.
Symptoms may include flushing, itching, hives, digestive discomfort, headaches, fatigue, brain fog, rapid heart rate, or other unpredictable reactions that can interfere with everyday life.
Many people with MCAS spend years trying to identify their triggers, avoiding foods and exposures, and managing a constantly changing collection of symptoms.
SAAT can be used to treat MCAS. In many cases, as overall reactivity improves, patients may also notice fewer reactions to things that previously triggered symptoms.
MCAS Can Affect More Than One System
-
Digestive
Nausea, bloating, abdominal discomfort, diarrhea or other gastrointestinal symptoms.
-
Skin
Flushing, hives, itching, rashes or other skin reactions.
-
Respiratory
Congestion, asthma-like symptoms, shortness of breath or throat tightness.
-
Nuerological
Headaches, brain fog, dizziness or difficulty concentrating.
-
Cardiovascular
Rapid heart rate, changes in blood pressure, palpitations or lightheadedness.
Beyond Symptom Management.
Many approaches to MCAS focus on avoiding triggers and managing symptoms. Depending on the individual, that may include:
Elimination diets
Avoiding environmental exposures
Carefully reading ingredient labels
Lifestyle modifications
Medications or supplements for symptom management
These strategies can be helpful and sometimes necessary, but constantly trying to identify and avoid every possible trigger can become restrictive and exhausting.
SAAT takes a different approach.
SAAT can be used to treat MCAS itself, without requiring every individual food, product, or environmental trigger to be treated separately.
In many cases, as overall reactivity improves, patients may also notice fewer reactions to foods or exposures that previously caused symptoms.
