Grass pollen allergy / Hayfever is a common problem in Melbourne and Victoria and in some sufferers it may be severe.

Allergen Immunotherapy is a treatment that can give significant relief from symptoms. This is where we administer doses of the allergen (in this case usually grass pollens) in order to de-sensitise or re-train the immune system to be less responsive to exposure.

Immunotherapy (desensitisation) can now be administered as either the traditional injections or with newer sublingual treatments (administered under the tongue) that do not require regular injections in a doctors clinic.

These treatments are not started during the springtime but assessment can take place at any time to consider if such treatment may be right for you.
