Acupuncture and breathing problems
When you can breathe in a relaxed manner, you often feel good and healthy. If that's not possible because breathing is difficult, it can be disruptive and even frightening.
Inflamed airways or disrupted breathing rhythm
A (chronic) inflammation of the airways or lungs can lead to various conditions. Well-known examples are asthma, chronic bronchitis, and emphysema. With all these conditions, air cannot flow freely through the airways into the lungs. In asthma, the cause is usually a specific external trigger, such as air pollution, dust, pollen, or pet dander. Chronic bronchitis and emphysema often result from prolonged exposure to harmful substances, such as tobacco smoke.
Other common respiratory problems include hyperventilation, shortness of breath, and sleep apnea. A disrupted breathing rhythm is usually the culprit in these conditions.
Air through acupuncture
An acupuncture treatment for breathing problems can literally provide a lot of air. By strengthening your immune system through acupuncture, you will be less susceptible to diseases. Additionally, acupuncture relaxes the airways and chest, reducing mucus production.
Acupuncture for hyperventilation and shortness of breath
For conditions like hyperventilation and shortness of breath, acupuncture helps restore a healthy breathing rhythm. Breathing becomes calmer and deeper. Your symptoms significantly decrease or disappear altogether. In the case of a chronic respiratory condition, acupuncture helps alleviate symptoms to the point where daily life becomes much more enjoyable.
