Allergy and Sinus Treatment

Allergy and Sinus Treatment

ENDONASAL BALLOON THERAPY

Our unique and highly effective treatment method can reduce or eliminate your sinus or nasal issues!

The doctors at Schneider Clinic use Endonasal Balloon Therapy (ENT) to help treat chronic sinusitis, allergies, headaches, breathing problems, snoring, and sleep apnea. This treatment can also help with other functional neurologic conditions due to a lack of oxygen, such as brain fog and fatigue. This technology opens up a whole new treatment option to patients with sinus problems who don't want to use drugs or surgery.

 

Will It Help Me?

Many times chronic sinus infections, damaged septum, or allergies can cause inflammation and damage to the nasal cavity and the mucous tissue. In some cases, chronic use of nasal sprays or decongestants can lead to drying and cracking of the mucous tissue causing further damage.

ENT gently restructures and widens the walls of the sinus passageway while still maintaining the integrity of the sinus lining. All patients must undergo a health history and examination with the doctors to determine if you would qualify for the treatment.

 

The Anatomy Of The Sinuses

Think of your nasal passages as a flowing river stream. The air flows through your nasal passages similarly to water flowing through the river. Now picture the scar tissue in your nose as a dam. While the dam begins to form, the water flowing in the river starts to become blocked. Over time without treatment, the blockages become worse and worse until eventually there is almost no flow through at all. When this happens in the nasal passages, the sinuses are unable to drain correctly causing a multitude of problems. Because the sinuses are unable to drain correctly, the sinuses then fill up with fluid and mucous- stretching out the sinus cavity and causing sinus pressure, fullness, and headaches.
