What is immunotherapy?

Immunotherapy is a revolutionary approach to allergy treatment that addresses the root cause rather than just managing symptoms. By retraining your immune system, it offers the potential for long-term relief from allergies.

How it works

Think of immunotherapy as a careful training programme for your immune system. Through precisely calculated doses, we help your body learn to recognise allergens as harmless, rather than threats. The treatment involves:
Personalised dosing: Treatment plans tailored to your specific need
Regular monitoring: Expert oversight of your progress
Gradual progress: Building tolerance systematically over time

Types of treatment

At LACK Clinic, we offer two main forms of immunotherapy:
Immunotherapy
This well-established treatment has been successfully used for over a century to address environmental allergies such as:
Hay fever
House dust mite allergies
Pet allergies
Mould allergies
Oral immunotherapy (OIT)
Also known as oral desensitisation, OIT focuses specifically on food allergies. This innovative treatment can help build tolerance to:
Peanuts
Tree nuts
Milk
Eggs
Sesame
Wheat

Evidence-based results

Professor Lack and our team's research through high profile clinical studies such as the LEAP and EAT trials has conclusively demonstrated that immunotherapy:
Reduces allergy risk by up to 85% in high-risk children
Significantly reduces existing allergy symptoms
Improves quality of life
Helps protect against developing new allergies or asthma

Common questions about immunotherapy

Is immunotherapy suitable for any age?
While individual suitability varies, immunotherapy can be effective for both children and adults. Each case is carefully evaluated based on factors including age, allergy severity, and overall health.
How quickly will we see results?
Response times vary between individuals. Many patients begin noticing improvements within the first year of treatment, with maximum benefit typically occurring after completing the full course.
How safe is immunotherapy?
Safety is our top priority. All treatments are administered under careful medical supervision, with protocols adapted to each patient's age and sensitivity. Our comprehensive safety measures ensure appropriate care for both children and adults.
Can immunotherapy prevent other allergies developing?
Early intervention with immunotherapy may help prevent the development of additional allergies or conditions like asthma, particularly in younger patients. This preventive aspect makes it an especially valuable option for children.
Will we still need other allergy medications?
Initially, you or your child may continue using regular allergy medications. As treatment progresses, many patients find they can reduce their reliance on these medications significantly.
Will immunotherapy affect my child's school attendance?
While some initial appointments require clinic visits, we structure treatment to minimise disruption to education. Once established, most treatments can be managed around school hours.
How do you help children cope with regular treatments?
Our specialist team is experienced in making treatment comfortable for children of all ages. We use child-friendly approaches, age-appropriate explanations, and positive reinforcement techniques. Parents often report that their children become increasingly confident with each visit.
What support do you provide for families?
We understand immunotherapy affects the whole family. Our support includes practical guidance for parents, resources for explaining treatment to siblings, and advice for managing treatment around family activities and holidays. We're here to help your family navigate the entire journey.
