Additionally, treatments for conditions not deemed medically necessary, like some chiropractic services or acupuncture, may be excluded.

Why prevention is more effective than allergy medicine

Exposure therapy:
Train your immune system to fight allergies rather than treat them with medications
Desensitization: Symptoms subside as your body desensitized to allergies reducing or eliminating the need for daily medication
Prevention: Immunotherapy helps prevent and fight allergies at the source

I have done allergy shots in the past but found it pretty inconvenient to go every week. I really like the ease as compared with physically going to the doctors office.
