Plastic surgery tourism is everywhere, but we are seeing a different trend: medical tourism for allergies. Moms are flying across the country—and even internationally—so their kids and family members can finally breathe, sleep, and live without constant allergy medication.

In this powerful episode of Allergy Actually, your bestie allergist moms dive into the logistics and motivation behind this trend. They discuss when traveling for advanced allergy care, specifically the ILIT™ Protocol offered by the Auni® ILIT™ Learning Network, is a smart, cost-effective decision.

Hear how the massive time commitment required by traditional 3-5 year allergy shots (up to 48 hours in the doctor's office!) is being replaced by just three convenient office visits. Learn why patients are flying in and out in the same day and how the costs compare to years of continuous medication.
