What is Asthma?Asthma is a chronic condition that affects the airways in the lungs. For individuals with asthma, the airways can become inflamed and narrowed, making it difficult for air to flow in and out. Various triggers can provoke asthma symptoms, including pollen, exercise, viral infections, and cold air. Common symptoms of asthma include wheezing, coughing, shortness of breath, and chest tightness. Living with asthma can be frustrating, as it often impacts daily activities and overall breathing. How can acupuncture help?Acupuncture can provide relief for individuals suffering from asthma in several ways. It helps reduce inflammation in the airways, making it easier to breathe. Additionally, acupuncture may enhance lung capacity and function, contributing to improved respiratory health over time. It is also known to alleviate stress and boost immunity, which can help reduce the frequency of asthma attacks. Dr. Kourtney Zamora, D.Ac., takes an individualized approach to each patient, customizing treatments to address specific symptoms and personal triggers, resulting in a more effective management plan. Taking proactive steps to manage asthma can be empowering. With the right support, you can take control of your breathing and enjoy a healthier, more fulfilling life.
