Acupuncture Treatment For
Respiratory Conditions
What are Respiratory Health Conditions?
Asthma, Allergies, Sinusitis, Bronchitis, Sleep Apnea, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
Overview
Respiratory conditions refer to a group of disorders that affect the lungs and the airways, including the nose, throat, bronchi, and lungs. These conditions can be caused factors such as exposure to environmental toxins, allergens, infections, and chronic smoking. Respiratory conditions can range from mild to severe, and can significantly impact a person’s ability to breathe and carry out daily activities.
Some common respiratory conditions include asthma, bronchitis, sinusitis, pneumonia, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Symptoms of respiratory conditions may include shortness of breath, wheezing, coughing, chest pain, and fatigue. Some respiratory conditions can be managed with medication and lifestyle changes, while others will require more management and ongoing treatment.
How can acupuncture help?
One of the ways in which acupuncture can help with respiratory conditions is by reducing inflammation in the airways. Inflammation can make it difficult for air to flow through the lungs, leading to symptoms such as shortness of breath and wheezing. Acupuncture has been shown to help reduce inflammation, which can in turn help to alleviate these symptoms.
Acupuncture can also help to promote relaxation, which can be particularly beneficial for those living with respiratory conditions. When a person is relaxed, their breathing tends to be slower and deeper, which can help to improve lung function and reduce symptoms such as coughing and wheezing.
If you are suffering from respiratory conditions, acupuncture may be an effective treatment option for you. For more information contact us or book an appointment using the button below.

Andrea is a kind and thoughtful practitioner. I went to her for acupuncture and cupping to relieve pain from a chronic back injury. She took a detailed history, provided excellent care, and gave me advice on ways to manage my pain in-between visits. I highly recommend Thrive Acupuncture for anyone who is looking for wholistic and compassionate care.
