Allergy Immunotherapy & Desensitisation: The Only Treatment That Addresses the Root Cause

Unlike antihistamines and other medications that only suppress symptoms, allergen immunotherapy (AIT) works by gradually retraining your immune system to tolerate a specific allergen, offering long-term — often permanent — relief. Our consultants offer all current forms of immunotherapy in line with the latest EAACI and BSACI guidelines:

SCIT — Allergy Injections
Subcutaneous immunotherapy (allergy shots) for pollen, house dust mite, pet dander & venom allergy.

SLIT — Sublingual Drops & Tablets
Under-the-tongue therapy for grass pollen, birch, house dust mite & other allergens. Suitable for most ages.

OIT — Oral Immunotherapy
Food desensitisation for children and adults with peanut, milk, egg and tree nut allergy. 80–90% desensitisation rates in clinical trials.

VIT — Venom Immunotherapy
Life-changing treatment for bee and wasp sting allergy. Reduces risk of future anaphylaxis.

Members of the Global Allergy Network of Excellence — enabling continuity of your immunotherapy when you travel, with participating centres across Europe and the US.
