Allergic Asthma
Allergic Asthma

Allergic asthma, or asthma caused by allergens, is by far the most prevalent type of asthma. 9 out every 10 children and half of all adults with asthma suffer from allergic asthma. For the most part, allergic asthma can be attributed to hereditary factors. For example, if a mother has allergic asthma, there is a 33% chance their child will inherit the condition. Unfortunately, this risk jumps to 70% if the father has allergic asthma as well.
Asthmatic episodes for both mature and pediatric patients with allergic asthma occur when the individual is in close proximity to a particular allergen they are affected by. These allergens can be anything from pet dander to dust particles and work by entering the body and causing allergic reactions. The allergic reactions are the bodies response to these unwanted particles in the body. For individuals with allergic asthma, this allergic reaction takes the form of inflaming the alveoli, tiny air-filled sacs, in the lungs and making it extremely difficult to breathe properly. Common symptoms include wheezing and lightheadedness because of this difficulty breathing,
Since allergic asthma is caused by allergens, it follows that affected individuals tend to experience episodes more often at specific times of the year if they are affected by exterior allergens. If individuals are affected by allergens found indoors, they are susceptible to allergic asthma constantly.
Methods of Treating Allergic Asthma
There are many methods of attempting to alleviate the vicious symptoms of allergic asthma. These include:
- Immunotherapy
- Avoiding triggers
- Inhalers
- Nasal irrigation
- Aromatherapy
All of these approaches are aimed at providing relief for the symptoms of allergic asthma but do not attempt to solve the condition at the source. Thankfully, there is a safe and effective way to treat allergic asthma in a lasting manner.
Allergic Asthma Relief with Chiropractic Care
It is never fun getting acquainted with the symptoms of an asthma attack personally. When it comes to trying to stop the symptoms once and for all, it makes sense to try to eliminate the root cause instead of just reaching for a stop-gap solution.
There have been amazing results in treating the source of allergic asthma with one method that has proven itself effective in allowing people to find lasting relief. These patients also are able to leave their drugs behind once and for all!
Believe it or not, asthma has become an increasingly popular reason for why people go see a chiropractor. This is because chiropractic has proven itself to be effective in solving the problem at the source. Chiropractors are not interested in a temporary solution, they are interested in healing you. The science is clear - regular chiropractic care prevents and treats all types of asthma.
Chiropractors will never give you a pill to stop your asthma. Instead, they will rely on their expertise to adjust your spinal column. When your spine is aligned, your body is able to better facilitate healing. This occurs due to roadblocks being removed from your nervous system.
A misalignment of any degree is enough to throw your body out of balance, this leads to a breakdown in communication between your nervous system and your brain. This breakdown in communication can result in certain parts of your body not functioning at their peak, in the case of allergic asthma it is your lungs. The asthma is simply your body letting you know it is under pressure and needs help. Luckily, chiropractors are able to solve the problem through safe, natural adjustments to your spine.
