"Allergy Relief Care is the best! I had a sensitivity to eggs, for 20 years, and went to see Shoshana about it. She patiently explained what can cause so many allergies and sensitivities, and how she can help. In just 2 visits my trouble digesting eggs is gone, and I can eat them again. No pills, no needles, all natural. I recommend her wholeheartedly!"

"I had been struggling with a lactose sensitivity since high school, and I truly believed it was something I’d have to manage for the rest of my life—until I met Shoshana at Allergy Relief Care. From the start, she demonstrated exceptional attentiveness and a deep understanding of how food sensitivities manifest in the body. Shoshana took a methodical, layered approach to my treatment. She began by educating me on the chemical composition of lactose, then explored how specific minerals and sugars might be triggering my reactions. From there, she helped me identify which dairy products were causing the most issues, tailoring her strategy to my individual needs. Thanks to her expertise and thoughtful care, I’ve been able to gradually reintroduce dairy into my diet with remarkable success. I’m honestly amazed at the difference—it’s been life-changing. Thank you, Shoshana, for your knowledge, dedication, and for helping me overcome something I never thought was possible to resolve."

“I have been seeing Shoshana at her Allergy Relief Practice in Easthampton. After 6 visits I have seen a marked improvement in my allergy symptoms and better overall comfot. Her approach is gentle and completely non-invasive. Shoshana has been calm, attentive, and professional at each of our sessions. I am very pleased with my progress so far, and would confidently recommend her to anyone seeking natural allergy relief.”

"I’ve suffered from seasonal allergies my whole adult life and my symptoms have completely disappeared after two treatments (1 for tree pollen and one for grasses). It’s hard to believe. Before my treatments, I was taking a Zyrtec pill daily in the spring and would still suffer from symptoms during peak times. I went in for my second treatment when I was actively suffering (running nose and itchy eyes) and felt better that evening. I haven’t taken any allergy medicine since or had any symptoms. The treatment is gentle and essentially a little back massage - very noninvasive. If you suffer from allergies, I couldn’t recommend giving this a try any more. You’ve got nothing to lose!"

"I have been struggling for close to a year with a chronic feeling of having something caught in my upper lungs that I was constantly trying to get out. I went to a pulmonologist who classified it as a chronic cough. He performed two bronchoscopies on me that luckily didn’t reveal any problems with my lungs and upper bronchial pathway, but did not provide me with any clear way to resolve this chronic bothersome condition. As someone who has pursued “alternative” health approaches, I was drawn to trying to resolve the condition by exploring other approaches. The idea that my condition could be caused by allergies made sense to me, and so, when I found out about Shoshana’s practice I was intrigued to see if her approach could help. My first appointment was very interesting, getting to learn the allergy relief approach that Shoshana practices, and it revealed that I had many allergies. As I was treated for various of these allergies, some other symptoms started to get better, but none seemed to address the chronic cough/congestion. At my next appointment, Shoshana pursued an approach where the symptoms (in my case the upper chest congestion) were the starting point, which then highlighted the potential allergens that might be causing the congestion. After a few more appointments, I started to feel some relief and after a few more appointments, though I am not completely free of the congestion, the severity and longevity of the congestion has diminished significantly, and I am no longer feeling the constant need to try and “clear my throat”. I very much appreciate Shoshana’s caring, thoughtful approach and persistence and her commitment to “figure out” and address my complaints. I look forward to getting treated for my other allergies and highly recommend to anyone to work with Shoshana."

"Shoshana was easy to work with and is a caring and considerate clinician. She carefully listens to symptons and thoroughly explains everything she is going to do. I was treated for a number of allergens, some I knew of, but many I did not. I had previously been taking a daily allergy pill and can happily say that I no longer need to. The effects are immediate. I will be back in the spring to conquer some environmental allergens!"

"Shoshana has been incredibly helpful in identifying foods, environmental and intrinsic factors that are causing reactions. My reactions are primarily GI discomfort and a runny nose/post nasal drip. I have celiac and know that this treatment won't cure me of my gluten allergy. She has been helping me to chip away at these irritants one-by-one. My nervous system is slowly feeling a sense of calmness as we treat for each item. I highly recommend seeing her for these non-invasive and relaxing treatments! She is very knowledgeable and helpful!"

"Shoshana brings both clinical knowledge and genuine care to her practice. She explains everything clearly and approaches health from a holistic perspective. I’ve experienced unexplained symptoms in adulthood, and taking daily allergy medication wasn’t a sustainable solution, especially because I'm starting to experience additional symptoms. I appreciate that Shoshana tests across multiple categories, clearly explains treatment options, and helps prioritize what to address based on my reactions, preferences, and budget. I highly recommend Allergy Relief Care."

"I honestly didn’t think anything would ever work for my allergies. I’ve been congested my entire life—always blowing my nose, always tired, always reaching for Claritin-D just to breathe normally. I even did allergy shots for years with zero real results. Then I started working with Shoshana at Allergy Relief Care. About 12 weeks in, and it’s been like peeling back layers. Each session brought a little more relief… and then suddenly after my last session (trees, apparently my nemesis 😅), I can breathe. Like… actually breathe. I’d say I have about 90% clarity most of the time now. I’m not constantly reaching for tissues, I’m off Claritin-D, and I don’t feel that heavy, foggy exhaustion anymore. Her work is non-invasive, super thoughtful, and clearly effective—but what really stands out is how much she cares. She’s kind, she listens, and she creates such a supportive space. If you’re someone who’s “tried everything”… I was too. This is different."

"When I walked into Allergy Relief Care in Easthampton, MA for the first visit and met Shoshana Wirth, the quality of life that I was experiencing was horrid. I felt like the world was trying to kill me and it was winning. I was in tremendous pain, used almost a full large box of Kleenex every day (which I bought at Costco by the 10-pack). I had once loved food but now it was a constant stressor in my life because almost everything made me feel ill. It seemed like every food was a problem, and some of them put me in agony. I knew I had allergies – mold, some pollens, dust, soy. But I had no idea how many problems I had. Shoshana explained how allergies are created. When your body is stressed, it looks around and decides that a molecule is the problem and starts reacting to it. So maybe it chose a pollen molecule and maybe that causes your nose to run. But it could choose a glutamate molecule which you ate for supper in some soy sauce or in tomato sauce or parmesan cheese. Once your body has reacted to glutamate, you now have problems with all the foods that contain glutamate. The reaction might be low-grade inflammation, or stomach pain, or possibly a runny nose. Allergens can target any organ or system, even though we and most doctors are not trained to think of them that way. When Shoshana tested me, I was allergic to the usual suspects that I stated above (plus more). But I had been under chronic high stress for so many years that I was allergic to almost all foods (because of the component molecules, like histamines, oxalates, amines, sugars, etc). I was allergic to the mask on my CPAP machine. And I was chemically sensitive and had been for decades which was such a huge problem in my life. I was also allergic to some neurotransmitters, hormones, and feelings. I’m only about a third of the way through the list of allergens I am going to be treated for. My life has already improved significantly. I use about a quarter of a box of Kleenex a day – that is a 75% improvement! My overall pain level has significantly decreased. There are no needles involved, if that is a concern. Shoshana Wirth is a delightful person and incredibly knowledgeable. She has a background as a nurse. I am so grateful she went out West and trained in this modality and we have it available to us in Western MA. It’s painless, convenient and available. She can work on anyone including children and even babies. There is good parking to boot! I highly recommend her. Once again, you can find her at Allergy Care Relief, Easthampton, MA."
