Acupuncture for Breathing Problems

I don’t find so many people seeking acupuncture for breathing problems so much as they do for other conditions.  Of the different breathing problems, asthma is the complaint that I would have most enquiries about.

Asthma.

The British Acupuncture Council haven’t yet produced a fact sheet on asthma but the Journal of Chinese Medicine website has a number of research summaries in their archive, click here to view.

Asthma, both allergic and adult onset, is very influenced by the diet that we eat.  I can give you all the details you need to eat the best diet you can to help your asthma.  As a sufferer myself I’ve really looked into this, and I’m a member of the British Institute of Allergy & Environmental Therapy.

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease.

The British Acupuncture Council has a fact sheet on COPD, click here.
