Asthma Relief

3 Reasons to see a chiropractor if you struggle with asthma.

​

1. There is a Link between your Nervous System and Your Respiratory System

There is research that suggests a link between the spinal column, the nervous system and the respiratory system. This may be why many have mentioned improved breathing by consulting a chiropractor.

​

Asthma cases seem to be rising at an alarming rate. Some think it’s due to a combination of factors, especially the increase of chemicals in our environment.

​

These days, airtight, super-insulated homes can trap chemicals, molds, formaldehyde and other irritants. Even the increasing use of cesarean births, antibiotics and our fascination with germ killing have been cited. If these factors were the only issue, why wouldn’t all children living in the same house and breathing the same air, suffer equally?

​

2. The Chiropractic Connection – The Nerves in your Diaphragm

Your diaphragm is the primary muscle used for breathing. Nerves that control each breath leave your brain and exit the spinal cord in the mid-neck (C3, C4 and C5) area. Spinal problems in this area can have a profound affect on the nerve supply to the diaphragm.

​

Reducing nerve interferences in the spine may help restore proper nervous system control of the lungs and improved function can begin.

​

3. Research on the Benefits of Chiropractic Care for Asthma

In fact, research published in the Journal of Vertebral Subluxation Research documented the results experienced by 81 children with asthma who saw a chiropractor for asthma and received chiropractic care. The two-month study revealed that those under care saw a 45% decrease in the number of “attacks” and that 31% of the subjects voluntarily chose to decrease their medication.

​

All this from improved nervous system control of the lungs!

Here are some additional research articles that explain how a chiropractor for asthma can help improve patient’s lives.

Chiropractic care may help reduce the frequency and severity of asthma attacks. Naturally, we can’t make any promises, however, if your son or daughter has subluxations, and they are the cause of their symptoms, many have found relief with conservative chiropractic care.
