Personalized Immunotherapy for Allergies, Autoimmune Conditions & Chronic Inflammation
Many people living with allergies, autoimmune conditions, and chronic inflammation spend years managing symptoms without finding lasting relief. At Aurora, we take a personalized approach through Low Dose Immunotherapy (LDI), an innovative treatment designed to support a more balanced immune response rather than simply manage symptoms.
Every treatment plan is individualized based on your health history, symptoms, and goals because no two patients, or immune systems, are exactly alike.
Is Immunotherapy Right for You?
Aurora's Immunotherapy Program is designed for individuals living with allergies, autoimmune conditions, chronic inflammation, or immune-related illnesses who are looking for a more personalized approach to care. Many of our patients have tried multiple treatments over the years and are seeking an option that focuses on supporting healthy immune function rather than simply managing symptoms.
Allergies & Sensitivities
Food allergies
Environmental allergies
Seasonal allergies
Chemical sensitivities
Mold sensitivities
Autoimmune Conditions
Rheumatoid Arthritis
Hashimoto's Thyroiditis

Eczema
These are some of the more common conditions we see. Because every patient is unique, additional immune-related conditions may also be appropriate for evaluation.
Understanding Low Dose Immunotherapy (LDI)
Low Dose Immunotherapy (LDI) is a personalized form of immunotherapy designed to help support a more balanced immune response. Rather than focusing solely on symptom management, LDI works by exposing the immune system to highly diluted antigens with the goal of encouraging immune tolerance over time.
Unlike traditional allergy immunotherapy, LDI is not limited to environmental allergies and may be considered as part of an individualized treatment approach for a broader range of immune-related conditions. Treatment is administered as drops placed under the tongue, typically requires less frequent dosing than traditional allergy shots, and is tailored to each patient's unique clinical history and response to treatment.
While LDI is not FDA approved, it is an evidence-informed treatment approach offered by trained providers for carefully selected patients seeking additional options beyond conventional therapies. Treatment recommendations are individualized following a comprehensive medical evaluation.

How is LDI Different?
Traditional Allergy Immunotherapy
Primarily used for environmental allergies
Injection-based
Frequent treatment schedule
Generally takes years to provide meaningful benefit (based on repetition)
Standardized treatment protocols
Low Dose Immunotherapy (LDI)
Individualized approach for a broader range of immune-related conditions
Administered sublingually (under the tongue)
Less frequent dosing based on individual response
Meaningful improvements generally experienced much faster (not based on repetition)
Personalized antigen selection and dosing
Treatment recommendations are individualized. Not every patient or condition is an appropriate candidate for Low Dose Immunotherapy.
Specialized Training in Low Dose Immunotherapy
Aurora's immunotherapy program is built on both specialized clinical training and personal experience.
Kristin completed advanced training in Low Dose Immunotherapy under the same physician who successfully treated both her family and herself. After witnessing firsthand the impact this treatment had on their lives, she pursued specialized training so she could responsibly bring this individualized approach to patients seeking additional options for complex immune-related conditions.
Because Low Dose Immunotherapy is highly individualized, Aurora emphasizes thoughtful patient selection, personalized antigen selection, conservative dosing, and ongoing follow-up throughout treatment.
The Aurora Approach to Immunotherapy
At Aurora, immunotherapy is never a one-size-fits-all protocol. Our approach combines careful evaluation, individualized treatment, patient education, and ongoing support throughout your care.
Personalized Evaluation
Every patient begins with a comprehensive consultation to understand their medical history, current symptoms, previous treatments, lifestyle, and long-term health goals. This thorough evaluation helps ensure that immunotherapy is an appropriate option and provides the foundation for an individualized treatment plan.
Individualized Treatment
No two immune systems are exactly alike. Antigen selection, dosing, and treatment intervals are personalized based on your unique clinical history and adjusted over time according to your response to treatment.
Education & Partnership
We believe patients should understand their treatment and feel confident in every step of the process. We take time to explain our recommendations, answer questions, set realistic expectations, and partner with you throughout your care.
Ongoing Support
Your care doesn't end after your first dose. We continue to monitor your progress, adjust treatment when appropriate, and provide ongoing guidance as your immune system responds over time.
Your Immunotherapy Journey
Beginning immunotherapy is a personalized process, not a one-time treatment. From your initial consultation through long-term follow-up, we're here to guide you every step of the way.
Step 1
Initial Consultation
Your journey begins with a comprehensive one-on-one consultation. We'll review your medical history, current symptoms, previous treatments, lifestyle factors, and health goals to determine whether Low Dose Immunotherapy is an appropriate option for you.
Step 2
Personalized Treatment Plan
Based on your consultation, Kristin develops an individualized treatment plan, including appropriate antigen selection, dosing, and recommendations tailored to your unique clinical history.
Step 3
Begin Treatment
Once your treatment is prepared, you'll receive detailed instructions on how and when to administer your dose, what to expect following treatment, and how to monitor your response.
Step 4
Follow-Up & Dose Optimization
Your response to treatment is closely monitored over time. As your immune system changes, treatment intervals and dosing may be adjusted to help optimize your individual response.
Step 5
Long-Term Partnership
Immune regulation takes time, and every patient's journey is different. We're committed to providing ongoing guidance, answering questions, and partnering with you throughout your care as your treatment plan evolves.
Investment & Pricing
We believe in transparent pricing with no hidden fees. Every patient's treatment plan is individualized, and we'll discuss recommendations during your consultation so you understand exactly what to expect before moving forward.

Frequently Asked Questions About LDI
-
LDI may be considered for patients with allergies, sensitivities, autoimmune conditions, chronic inflammation, or other immune-related concerns. However, having one of these conditions does not necessarily mean LDI is the right treatment for you.
During your initial consultation, we'll review your health history, symptoms, previous treatments, and individual goals to determine whether LDI may be an appropriate option and discuss what you can realistically expect from treatment.
-
LDI is administered sublingually, meaning the treatment is placed under the tongue. There are no injections or allergy shots required.
You'll receive clear instructions for administering each dose at home, along with guidance on timing and what to expect before and after treatment.
-
LDI is typically administered at spaced intervals rather than on a daily or weekly basis. The timing of each dose is individualized based on your treatment plan and how you respond.
Finding the right dose may take time, and treatment intervals can change as your care progresses. You'll receive specific guidance from Aurora about when to take each dose and when follow-up is needed.
-
Every patient responds differently. Some patients may notice improvement after an early dose, while others require several treatment cycles to identify the dose that works best for them.
LDI is a highly individualized process, and finding the right dose can take time. We'll monitor your response throughout treatment and make adjustments when appropriate. Our goal is to approach treatment thoughtfully and conservatively rather than rush the process.
-
LDI dosing is highly individualized. Your starting dose is selected based on your medical history, symptoms, sensitivities, and the specific antigens being considered.
After each treatment, we'll evaluate how you responded before determining the next step. Depending on your response, the dose may be maintained or adjusted over time. The goal is to identify the dose that provides the best response while minimizing the potential for unwanted symptoms.
-
An LDI flare is a temporary increase in symptoms that can occur if the immune system responds too strongly to a dose. While not everyone experiences a flare, it can provide useful information when determining the most appropriate dose for future treatment.
At Aurora, we take a conservative approach to dosing with the goal of minimizing the likelihood and severity of a flare. If you notice a change in symptoms after treatment, we'll guide you on what to do and use your response to help inform future dosing decisions.
-
Yes. Low Dose Immunotherapy may be considered for both children and adults when clinically appropriate. Because LDI is administered under the tongue and does not require injections, treatment can be relatively simple for families to administer at home.
For pediatric patients, we take an especially conservative approach to dosing and carefully consider the child's health history, symptoms, and sensitivities when developing a treatment plan.
-
Not necessarily. During your consultation, we'll review your current medications and supplements and discuss whether any changes or special considerations are recommended around the time of your LDI treatment.
You should not stop or change a prescribed medication unless instructed to do so by the healthcare provider managing that medication. We'll provide individualized guidance based on your treatment plan.
-
No. Low Dose Immunotherapy (LDI) is not an FDA-approved treatment. It is an individualized approach used by some healthcare providers for patients with allergies and other immune-related conditions.
At Aurora, we believe patients should understand the nature of any treatment they are considering, including its potential benefits, limitations, and alternatives. These are discussed as part of the consultation and informed consent process before beginning treatment.
