Brief description Many Australians seek complementary and alternate medicine for the treatment of allergic diseases such as allergic rhinitis. There is evidence that acupuncture treatment is clinically beneficial for the treatment of allergic rhinitis. This project will produce new information that will provide a scientific basis of how acupuncture influences the immune response and modulates inflammation. Broader application to other inflammatory diseases and therapeutic interventions is possible.
