Ayurvedic Treatment For Asthma
Ayurvedic Treatment for Asthma
Asthma is a chronic respiratory condition characterized by inflammation and narrowing of the airways, leading to symptoms such as wheezing, shortness of breath, and coughing. Ayurvedic treatment for asthma (referred to as "Tamak Shwas") addresses the root causes, such as imbalances in the doshas (primarily Vata and Kapha), and focuses on enhancing respiratory function, reducing inflammation, and strengthening the immune system. Modern Ayurvedic medicine offers a range of herbal formulations that are effective in managing asthma symptoms and improving overall lung health.
Severe Asthma
Severe asthma is a chronic respiratory condition characterized by episodes of wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and coughing. Ayurveda views asthma (known as “Tamak Shwas”) as a condition caused by imbalances in the doshas, particularly Vata and Kapha. The treatment focuses on balancing these doshas, strengthening the respiratory system, and improving overall lung function. Ayurvedic treatment for asthma is very effective.
Allergic Asthma
Allergic asthma is a chronic inflammatory condition of the airways triggered by allergens such as pollen, dust mites, pet dander, and mold. Ayurveda views allergic asthma (Tamak Shwas) as a result of imbalances in the Vata and Kapha doshas, often exacerbated by an accumulation of toxins (ama) and weakened immune response. The Ayurvedic approach aims to balance these doshas, strengthen the respiratory system, and reduce sensitivity to allergens.
Exercise-Induced Asthma
Exercise-induced asthma (EIA), also known as exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB), is a condition where physical activity triggers narrowing of the airways, leading to symptoms such as wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and coughing. In Ayurveda, EIA is seen as an imbalance in the Vata and Kapha doshas, often triggered by physical exertion that leads to the disturbance of respiratory functions.
Occupational Asthma
Occupational asthma is a type of asthma triggered by exposure to irritants in the workplace, such as chemicals, dust, fumes, or other airborne substances. Ayurveda views occupational asthma as a result of imbalances in the Vata and Kapha doshas, often aggravated by environmental factors. The Ayurvedic approach aims to balance these doshas, strengthen the respiratory system, and reduce sensitivity to occupational triggers.
